LucasArts studios, formerly LucasGames, have closed. Their work was a big part of what got me into gaming, from Monkey Island to Jedi Knight. Rock Paper Shotgun wrote a more cogent obituary than I could, but you only have to look at the amount of Lucasarts games on something like the excellent Point Clicking website to see how well loved it was, for good reason.

For me one of the saddest parts is that Disney's press release said "After evaluating our position in the games market, we've decided to shift LucasArts from an internal development to a licensing model, minimizing the company's risk while achieving a broader portfolio of quality Star Wars games." when the people involved with Lucasarts throughout its existance produced so much more than just Star Wars games. I really hope those other licenses aren't lost.

I was thinking...hopefully the quality point and click game designers from LucasArts (maybe even the Star Wars guys) might eventually do a Kickstarter like the guys from InXile. One can hope...

1I found this about a week before the Lucasarts announcement thread (and posted therin)

Such joy and nostalgia. GO WATCH ALL OF THEM!

Also watching other speedruns of my favorite games (e.g. JK2:Jedi Outcast) on SpeedDemosArchive is you set for some lovely nostalgia.

LucasArts has been dead ever since Tim Schafer left, imo.

Good news! They did. This is Tim Schafer and Ron Gilbert's game.

They're actually the ones that gave the InXile guys the idea.

The first PC game I ever played was Dark Forces. The second was Star Wars: Rebellion. That was one awful strategy game but I loved it anyway.
I'm not stupid, a marauder just shot my brain.

This was the first Kickstarter I contributed to! I'm hoping Ron Gilbert will try and do something to get the Monkey Island license now that it's floating somewhat free.

I think a lot of gamers have their Lucasarts memories, they produced such a wide variety of games, more hits than misses I think
