Aah no worries, I am not a big fan of April Fools' pranks...
stupid pranks always get me mumrblmrblrm.
I chose the date because of that thing that started it all, exactly five years ago: releasing that Monkey Island radio-play, which became the basis of the flash movie a year later.
Link to the german webpage that released it on April 1st 2006. The prank there was that we said we found the lost,
official radio plays of Zak McKracken and Monkey Island, that were supposed to be delivered with the game (like Lucasfilm Games did with Loom). Wasnt really a prank, we just had to come up with something, since it was April 1st.
Also, one year later on April 1st I announced the Monkey Island flash movie (
link, also german).
Hope that makes Rocketmen April-Fools-prank-FREE for you guys!
(Also hope it frees me from all the other pranks that day...)
