Anyone remember TIM?

heh it was made by sierra/Dynamix and i just found my backup CD of it.. for those of you who dont know/cant remember the acronym (sorry for my spelling) its "The Incredible Machine" where you had to solve puzzles using parts of everyday stuff like a mouse in a cage

:)

i just though i might bring some old memories back to the people who made such great games.

TIM is my favorite of all the games I have ever worked on. Myself and several of the original Dynamix team members that worked on the title have a little development company called Monster Studios. Check this out. Chain Reaction

I was wondering who was doing that... I didn't know it was GG themselves! I remember you mentioning you were "helping them out" hehe.

Very interesting game idea!

Yeah, Contraptions is just a rerelease of TIM with an updated menu system. I put that project into developement right before I left DYnamix. It was very satisfying to see an eight year old project win game of the year in several places including the ISIA.
