HINT: The game is an utter crap.

* Babar checks if Ali is around

Myst?

Myst?

I was more a Math Rescue kid . Helped me recognise the shot enough to figure it was probably by the same company.

Fast Airchopper!

Reminds me of some edutainment game...but I am not placing it.

Was it from the intro logo or something? I don't remember any significant dragons in the game...
Pass for now. I don't have time to hunt for a screenshot..

That's Planescape: Torment!

Is it Zug's Adventure's on Eco-Island?
Because as far as I know, that is the same game.

If there were an entire series of edutainment games featuring Zug the weird dinosaur, I am going to be hugely disappointed that I didn't know about them!

We've had Eco-Saurus as well (which I'm pretty sure that is)!

Well what's the point in anything in life. We'll all die at some point.

Dying seems a good point!
But what I meant was that all the Monkey Islands work perfectly using ScummVM, and it'd be pretty hard for anyone to beat the quality of the music in the games, or the art in 2 and 3, or the humour. While it might serve as an interesting programming exercise (although again, ultimately pointless), there's no real reason to remake the Monkey Islands. Someone was working on a demake for MI3 in MI2 art style (which I definitely prefer), but again, they can't REALLY hit the same level of quality as the original MI2. I suppose someone could attempt to do a remake of 1 using the art style of 2, but that seems like an awful lot of effort for something that again, will probably never reach the same level of quality as what you're trying to emulate, and you won't ever really be able to call your own.

Should I shorten it or just throw it out altogether? Because at the moment my game is severly lacking in the puzzle department.

Perhaps you can shorten it. The main issue I had was that it seemed convoluted and there seemed a lot like something you'd have to be you to know how to do it (and there'd be easier ways to do it anyhow). Like why doesn't the player just pour the drink on to the fusebox? Or stick in the coin he was going to use to buy the drink? Or spit in it or something?

There are a couple of fan games created or being created (with ripped, similarly styled as well as original graphics), but no direct remake of Monkey Island, no. What would be the point?

I personally don't think it is a good puzzle. It seems tedious and there just as an obstacle to prolong the game.

Hahaha...I didn't know the other two games you listed existed, but you are right! It is Wayne's World.

Wayne's World The Game? Beetlejuice The Game? The Naked Gun the Game?

Is that a guess?

No, it is not Future Wars either. Think something a lot less serious.

It is neither of those. I did not expect this game to be so hard to guess. It is a real hassle getting screenshots (long, interactive, unskippable intro, and I keep forgetting to save past it), and that music (at least at the start gets simultaneously repetitive and ingrained in your brain REALLY fast.
But if nobody can guess it in a bit, I guess I'll post another screenshot.

As a small hint, you guys are getting the vibe of the game completely wrong!

Not KGB or Zak McKracken

Probably make it much easier:

I was worried everyone hated me and my stupid game choices. Thanks for reassuring me.
If there are no guesses soon, I'll post another screenshot (it's such a hassle getting through the beginning of that game).

Heh...I guess my eyes just automatically skipped over the second X.
Here's one I figure will be relatively easy, but I haven't seen it in the thread yet:

HEXAGON!
I still have the shareware version lying around somewhere.

Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure?
