SCUMM-8 - Adventure classic Maniac Mansion demake on the Pico-8? It's possible!

Throughout the years we have always been impressed by what can be achieved with the Pico-8; a complete 2D game creation environment [code, sprite, map, SFX and music editors] for making games with very tight restrictions and more especially on the PocketCHIP miniature computer, which ships preloaded with the Pico-8 software. But now we are going to show you something special, an Easter treat if you will, as a "demake" of the SCUMM engine that powered most of the classic LucasArts adventure games, such as Monkey Island and Maniac Mansion has been released as ' SCUMM-8', on the Pico-8!
