The Neverhood was released in 1996 for Windows PC in North America and Skullmonkeys launched on the PlayStation in 1998. TenNapel has reached out game's fan base on Facebook to ask what they would like in the new full-length claymation game. It's MUCH easier (and frankly, funner) to create something new!" "It's not my decision, and it's not my place. "If it was up to me, I'd make 800 Neverhood sequels the same way that I would make 800 new Earthworm Jim games," TenNepal wrote. He said that he tried for years to work a deal with EA, who he says never completely grasped the size of the game's fanbase. It was the price of admission to getting to do a game." The problem is the game’s utterly relentless and obtuse puzzles are very likely to leave you stumped for an extended period of time unless you consult a guide. "I did that with Earthworm Jim and Neverhood, so I own and control neither one of those characters or worlds. The game has fantastic world building, an excellent cast of characters, top-notch humor, and a unique claymation art style. "So back in the day, we needed one point something million dollars to make the first Neverhood game, and publishers would pay you the money, but you HAD TO assign the character rights to the company," TenNapel wrote on Facebook. He signed those to Dreamworks Interactive when making the The Neverhood and EA now owns those character rights. TenNapel explained in a Facebook post that he is making a new title because he doesn't own The Neverhood character rights. Terry Scott Taylor, composer of The Neverhood and its sequel Skullmonkeys will do the soundtrack. The creator of The Neverhood is making a new claymation point-and-click adventure game, featuring new characters and story for Windows PC and Mac, according to the official The Neverhood's Facebook page.Ĭreator Doug TenNapel ( Earthworm Jim, Skullmonkeys) is joining up with The Neverhood and Earthworm Jim animators Ed Schofield and Mike Dietz.
