Development

Development for the game began around April, 1996. All puzzles were drafted by the development team on notebooks and minigames for the carnival were sketched. While programming the game, programmers used pseudo-code to keep track of their work.

Art

The characters were designed from basic descriptions with 10 till 30 sketches drawn until a final sketch was approved. The longest process in the character animation was adding bubble trails to their movement.

During the storyboard process it took from 15 to 30 sketches to design each scene in the game. Backgrounds were penciled, inked and hand painted. Some of those backgrounds were inspired by scenery photographs.

Audio

To find the right voices for the characters, dozens of actors auditioned for the game.

Plot

Freddi and Luther are taking a summer vacation to the Founders' Day Festival in the Hawaiian Sea. As they enter the festival, the Conch Shell which is used to signal the beginning of the Founders' Day Festival has been stolen! To make matters worse, Luther's Uncle Blenny, the "Grand Exalted Keeper of the Conch" is being blamed for this mess! Now Freddi and Luther have to find the three golden pipes that fell out, and look for the real thief. They search and investigate the suspicious characters to find out who really "did it". Once the pipes are found, Old Soggy, Uncle Blenny's dogfish, will smell the scent and find the culprit. Freddi and Luther follow Old Soggy to an Aztec temple in the Sea off the Coast of Mexico.
