Designer Diaries

While putting Grim Fandango together, designer Tim Schafer produced a series of diaries for GameSpot that chronicled the ongoing development of the game. With them no longer being available there, we’ve now preserved them for your enjoyment. They’re grouped by when they were published, which was often some time after being written.

Foreword

Well, “a fish rots from the head down,” they say, and for some reason, people always say they think of me and Grim Fandango when they hear this expression. Probably because I love fish so much! You probably didn’t know that but, boy, do I love fish! And that’s just one of the fascinating things about me that you can learn by reading my personal and private diary where I tell the dark secrets of what really goes on in the halls of LucasArts! From the dangerous hazing rituals to the unexplainable paranormal phenomena that we see here every day, the Grim Fandango Designer Diaries TELL IT LIKE IT IS! Read them before the government shuts them down!
