In a big blowout feature from Kotaku entitled "How LucasArts Fell Apart," news surfaced that among the games canceled in the studio closure was a HD remastered version of Day of the Tentacle.
Did you hear that? That was the sound of my heart breaking.
Kotaku's sources say that despite the fact that the game was never officially greenlit, it was actually roughly 80% completed by LucasArts Singapore. This remake of Tim Schafer and Dave Grossman's classic point-and-click adventure game would've followed in a similar vein as pair of HD versions of the Monkey Island games. Anyone who's played the original DotT knows that it still stands as one of the finest adventure games of all time, and certainly one of the most influential. The fact that this will most likely never see the light of day is sort of the worst.
