the 18th amendment: a poker night documentary

the spiritual successor to telltale’s first official retail product, “poker night at the inventory“ was a crossover promotional title released in 2010. developed in just under three months, the history of poker night is a brief one, but remains an important tale in understanding the bigger story behind telltale themselves. this video will feature some in-game advice which you can utilise when playing, but will mainly address the creation of and the ideas behind our first visit to the inventory, the first ever “poker night“. this video was original posted in the form of a steam guide back in november when this game celebrated it’s 11th birthday. if you’d like to read that (it has some extra details in places - it also has pictures!) then click the link below: i would like to extend special thanks to DavidM and violet on the telltale modding discord. without DavidM, this video would’ve been a massive eyesore, and without violet, i would’ve been barking up the wrong tree in the search for modding tools. trying to change the game files of an 11 year old obscure title is not an easy job - at least, not for me. i would also like to extend special thanks to everyone who watches this video! i doubt many people will - this whole project really is a pointless labour of love for a game i thoroughly enjoy - but to those who do, thank you so much. it means a lot to me. all the music used in the video is listed at the end. just a quick side note, i’ve lost the link to the original wii shop cover of “sans“ and i can’t find it anywhere anymore, so if you’re really desperate for it i can send you the mp3 if you’d like. just comment if you need it.
