@Someone As an aside, it reminds me a little bit of something like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Spellcasting_101_interface.png
Well, the backgrounds have been repainted! I donāt expect people to hassle me for tracing those lines ā¦ do you? And if they do, I can quickly replace a background.
But the old interface will stay as an optionā¦
Iām very picky about what kind of music I likeā¦ I want a Monkey Island style soundtrack.
What I can do is try to create some on my own, first. (as I canāt harass Guga too much 
)
BTW, considering you still havenāt solved a puzzle, Iām surprised to hear you say that

I like how the interface looks like, but Iām not sure about removing the āwhyā part. I feel like it allows trying everything with everything.
You could do MI2 style, making it the easy option 
As for the music: we can try again 
it went fine for the intro 
the prices are quite high. I could ask a colleague of mine who is a conservatory laureate how much does he want.
What Iād suggest is lowering the number of locations with different themes, merging them. Inside the castle, inside the tavern, the town (plaza and arab quartier), sea/harbour, forestā¦ itās way less, but still gives to the world its identity

Ah, Ok.
Like this?
Warning: This site has several licenses. You have to pay for the song I linked above, but it is cheap. But youāll find a lot of good and free music title in the internet. 
Feel free to search ācaribbeanā on the site to find more MI-examples and other words that are fitting your game.
Oh, I will.
But I played a little bit around with your interface.

Thatās certainly trueā¦ itās now a brute-forceable UI.
But at least it allows me to express some of the puzzles, which I couldnāt see how to express with scumm or otherā¦ like the fountain puzzle, or the chest puzzle, or the mermaid puzzle, or the closet puzzle. (btw, if you have any idea how to express them with a normal interface , let me know)
Yes, I was planning a screen where you choose that, like monkey2.
Well, ok, thanks But first I want ot put together all the rooms with ripped off music. So I have an exact idea of how many different tracks I need, and the length of each.
Right. When I put together the demo, I will try to use as few tracks as possible, sharing them where possible.
Um ā¦ yeah

That reminds me of the time a friend of mine said āafter Obi-Wan died, in Ep.V there were only three jedi left: Yoda and Luke Skywalkerā
Or, Seguso is so involved in programming now that starts counting from zero.

Thanks for the links, @Someone and Guga.
I listened to the samples of the medieval one and unfortunately it is epic, not comic. Also , itās full of strings . and it either does not have percussions or it has modern drumsā¦ sorry , that wonāt work. What I need is: no strings, no piano, no guitar; only wood percussions, winds for the melody, bass of course, some organ maybe, a lot of rhythm, and thatās itā¦
My daughter doesnāt want to play her own game anymore because she feels humiliated that sheās illiterate and all the characters make fun of that.

As I stated before, this way you are creating āanother pointānāclick adventure with the SCUMM interfaceā.
Although the new GUI is well done, with its unique hand-drawn style, the game will lose that originality and freshness of the old GUI (which I like very much).
I mean, you can do whatever you want with your game, of course. If you feel itās better this way, ok.
But the old interface is really unique, a never-seen-before thing, and for that reason it makes your game a new milestone in the adventure games.

Iāll keep the text interface as an optionā¦ I feel safer with two interfacesā¦ some people really donāt like to play by assembling bits of sentences, apparentlyā¦ even though Tangle Tower does it, and nobody seems to complainā¦
