Title: [FULL] MANOS: The Hands of Fate v1.2
Post by: Yeaster on October 28, 2010, 07:22:44 PM
(Based on the movie by Harold P Warren)

Michael Downing and Margaret Peterson are the textbook examples of an All-American couple. Forced to postpone their wedding due to severe rainfalls, they seek shelter inside a lone Motel on the side of the road. Things take a swift turn for the worst when the couple is separated and thrown into an enormous labyrinth sitting underneath the motel. The twosome make it their mission to reunite with each other, teaming up with two mysterious and quirky individuals along the way. Will the young couple overcome the plethora of deadly demons and dangerous traps to reach other other in time, or will a much greater evil expose the cracks in their relationship to claim Margaret as his own? .

Re: Debbie's speech... it makes sense in the game. =P


Another website was having a Halloween-ish event in which people had to make a game based on a movie... and I chose this one! ^_^

You chose this one......but it seems like you didn't even watch it. Torgo doesn't talk like that. Debbie doesn't talk like that. The game has absolutely nothing to do with the movie...It's like you had a great idea for a story and just slapped Manos names onto the characters so it would fit the Halloween theme.

You're really good at writing dialogue, but don't you think a Manos game should actually be about Manos? Where's the B-movie cheesy fun that makes that movie so fun to watch? Why doesn't this game have that?

The original didn't have enough going on to fill the game (imho). I did try to watch it of course, but instead of making a scene-by-scene adaptation like I was going to do, I decided to borrow the important parts and just make an ~*alternative*~ version instead.  :P

If you can't watch the original, watch the MST3K of it. It's the funniest thing I've ever seen.
