Developers Jacob Janerka and Ivan Dixon created a 90’s style point-and-click video game called ‘Seinfeld Adventure.’ Fans can play as Jerry, Elaine and George–but not Kramer because according to the developers ‘no one can control Kramer.’ They got that right!
Janerka and Dixon have uploaded the trailer to their 16-bit video game and here’s what we know: Each level will take about 30 minutes to complete, approximately the length of an episode of Seinfeld, and has a choose-your own adventure story line.
Spoiler Alert! The premise for episode/level one goes as follows:
“Jerry is dating a publicist who accidentally reveals his email address to Kenny Bania through a group email,” the synopsis says.
“Now, Bania fills Jerry’s inbox with a flurry of spam emails asking for feedback on his new stand-up set. Jerry decides to break up with the publicist over this, but he doesn’t want to deal with the interaction face-to-face.
“Kramer suggests ending the relationship via email and avoiding it all together. Jerry does this before Elaine reminds him that the publicist was supposed to get them all tickets to the opening night of the new movie Rochelle, Rochelle 2.
“George devises a plan to corrupt Jerry’s girlfriend’s computer before she can read her emails so that they can still collect the tickets. Kramer says he knows who can help.
“Someone with a sworn vendetta against email. Someone who has devoted their whole life to analogue mail and sees email as a threat to his livelihood. Someone named Newman.”
Dixon and Janerka have a pretty impressive resume. They have done animation work for big names like The Simpsons, Adventure Time, and Rick and Morty. They have also done work for show’s like Fallout, Wolfenstein, Game of Thrones, and The Watchmen.
They’re now looking to Jerry Seinfeld and the show’s co-creator Larry David to get the rights to bring their dream game to life.
But it doesn’t end there, once they get permission, they’ll need some help from a Kickstarter or a big investment to get it off the ground and accessible to everyone. The duo are urging everybody to spread the word, so hopefully, we can see this come to life soon!
