What Monkey Island 2 would look like with the CryEngine
Ever considered what LeChuck’s Revenge would look like if it was created using the same engine the visual powerhouse title Cryis uses? At least one guy has. Hannes Appel is doing the silly -- and absolutely awesome -- right now: he’s making a Monkey Island 2: LeChuck’s Revenge level using CryEngine 2. Below the fold is a brief cinematic trailer he made that showcases the classic 2D adventure game with scrumptious 3D and beautiful modeling stuff. [Thanks, Sam!] Did you know?

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)Website doesn't seem to be working. Is this the same guy who did some levels from movies like bladerunner? If so, his work is amazing. Nice work but the one thing the guy brought over from Crysis is the lack of interactivity which is a big part of the Monkey Island games. Wow. The lighting and atmosphere make this look straight up pre-rendered. Makes me wish more games would use this style. Awesome. Hmm the website seems to be down. That's the correct web-address though. Looks like it might be back up again sometime tomorrow. Holy. Fucking. Shit. That is impressive. It's so beautiful. That scene underwater with the light scattering would make my computer explode. He used to be co-host of the former German video games TV show called Giga Games. I read that he works for CryTek now. Another talented soul showing us somethign we'll never see officially. I don't know if I should weep or laugh. CryEngine is still going so strong, I can't even begin to imagine what Crysis 3 will look like on a high end PC. 11:00 PM on 05.23.2013 Latest iam8bit art showcase opens in LA this JuneFeaturing upwards of 80 artists, iam8bit Entertainment System starts Friday, June 7 and carries through June 30.
