: We had high hopes for ''Dummy 5'', but it was ultimately left unfinished. Since ''[[Dummy Duck 4|Dummy 4]]'' was an experiment in claymation, I felt like I had to try something new for part 5.

- We had high hopes for Dummy 5, but it was ultimately left unfinished. Since Dummy 4 was an experiment in claymation, I felt like I had to try something new for part 5. The idea was to hand draw everything, scan in the drawings and make the game look like it was all drawn on a big piece of paper. I started working on it and it looked kinda cool. I finished the character and background for the first level. But sadly it wasn't meant to be. I never got any farther than that first level. It's too bad. I think that was around the time that computers stopped fully supporting MS-DOS programs. I think I got a new computer that couldn't run Game-Maker, and that was that. Kinda makes me sad to think about it.
