Ron Gilbert reveals concept art from his Double Fine project

Ron Gilbert has revealed two pieces of character art from his new project for Double Fine.

Unveiled on his personal blog grumpygamer.com, Gilbert revealed that the ‘playable’ characters are from a game idea he’s had rolling around in his head since before Maniac Mansion and Monkey Island.

Knowing Ron was big into adventure games before creating Maniac Mansion, and enjoyed the Seirra graphic adventure games King’s Quest and Space Quest, we’re guessing the project will be of a similar mould to his early adventure games.

The two characters, the bespectacled scientist and imposing looking mobster seen here, certainly have a Maniac Mansion/Day Of The Tentacle vibe to them. Could this be Double Fine’s first proper iOS game?
