To Loom, or Not to Loom?

There was an exciting event yesterday for all those who love 'Loom' - its creator Brian Moriarty was talking at GDC about Loom Postmortem. And it was the day when Loom has turned 25 years of age!
I hope there would be a video of that talk eventually, but for now there are only articles like this one.

What is most interesting: Brian said he dreams about a sequel - and that he would trust only Telltale, Double Fine, and Wadjet Eye with making it. I have a lot of doubts as for Telltale (who have switched from adventures to interactive movies) and Double Fine (who did not do very well recently with keeping promises and making real adventure games), but there is hope for Wadjet Eye! At least, Dave Gilbert says he is interested I think it would not be necessary to buy the rights from Disney as Bobbin and the swans are gone anyway.

By the way, there are many fan-made Loom sequels in the make. Like 'Forge' - it is a very decent one, with the first chapter already available. Try it!

That is all very interesting. I loved Loom and played it when it first came out. I already was a fan of Brian Moriarty due to his work for Infocom.

It would be great to see a collaboration between Dave Gilbert and Brian Moriarty.

Unfortunately Dave mentions on Twitter that the rights question is very tangled up.

That's unfortunate. I will hope that perhaps they can collaborate on another project.

Yes. I enjoyed Loom (although I found it to be quite a short game) and actually replayed it only a few months ago

Will be looking to see what happens next, then
