🏴‍☠️ Monkey Island Theme - Revenge's LeChuck Edition

A collection of dark themes inspired by the legendary LucasArts adventure game The Secret of Monkey Island. Relive the Caribbean nights, ghostly encounters, colorful salesmen, and radioactive grog while coding!

🎨 Theme Variants

1. Melee Island Night 🌙

"Deep in the Caribbean, the night is full of mystery..."

Inspired by the iconic night scenes of Melee Island with its dark blue skies and flickering torchlight.

2. LeChuck's Ghost 👻

"You dare challenge the Ghost Pirate LeChuck?"

A spectral green theme inspired by the undead pirate captain himself. Ghost greens and eerie reds create a haunting coding atmosphere.

3. Stan's Salesman 🎪

"Have I got a deal for you!"

Multicolor vintage theme inspired by Stan's legendary plaid jacket. Bold, vibrant, and impossible to ignore - just like the man himself!

4. Grog Bloom ☢️

"That's the second-biggest radioactive drink I've ever seen!"

A corrosive green theme inspired by the legendary Grog - the drink so potent it dissolves mugs! Features radioactive neon greens with optional real glow effects.

☢️ How to enable the "Radioactive Glow"

To get the full Grog experience with real neon glow effects (like SynthWave '84), follow these steps:

Step 1: Install the Custom CSS and JS Loader extension

Step 2: Open your VS Code settings.json:

• Press Ctrl+Shift+P → Type "Preferences: Open User Settings (JSON)"

Step 3: Add this configuration to your settings.json:

"vscode_custom_css.imports": [
  "file:///C:/PATH/TO/grog-glow.css"
]

Replace PATH/TO/ with the actual path where you saved the grog-glow.css file

Step 4: Download the grog-glow.css file from this repository and save it to a permanent location

Step 5: Enable the custom CSS:

• Press Ctrl+Shift+P → Type "Enable Custom CSS and JS"
• Click "Restart" when prompted

Step 6: VS Code will show a "corrupted installation" warning - this is normal!

• Click "Don't Show Again" - this happens because VS Code detects modified files

To disable the glow: Press Ctrl+Shift+P → "Disable Custom CSS and JS" → Restart

⚠️ Note: You may need to re-enable custom CSS after VS Code updates.
