Cinemaware are back (again) :)
 
I couldn't find this anywhere here (did a search on Cinemaware as a single word) but I would like to bring it to your attention.

They are trying to kickstart development of a HD re-imagining of Wings for PC/iOS devices and Android.

I thought some people may be interested....plus to be honest I was getting sort of fed up with all the stupid comments they're getting on A.ORG like "woah! no Amiga OS4 version then?" pffft. We here are much more sensible here and at least the thread won't descend into a Classic/OS4/MOS piss'n contest right?

Anyway the woman in the videos is really pretty and has nice ample sized bosoms...just like all the Cinemaware games and artwork so worth posting about just for that no? :spin

Seems more worthy than the Ouya (and we saw where that went). Hopefully they get enough funding to do this.

Well this is fantastic news indeed, really hope they manage to get this project off the ground pardon the pun, Love Cinemaware and their style.

$8,596,475 :shocked

BTW, I went over and read the amiga.org thread. Wow. I'm really glad I quit that place.

Dunny 11 August 2012 19:40

URL? I gather that Amiga.org were somewhat derisive of the Ouya?

D.

desiv 11 August 2012 19:44

What? No AmigaOS4 port????

:-) Kidding.....

Seriously, I'm all for almost any new (well, in the timing sense) adventure games.
Hopefully this does well (and they do it well) and they can move on to some new content as well...

I just hope they don't measure based on the current "game success" market.
One of the things I'm hoping will come out of this Kickstarter game trend is that I hope we start to see successful and smaller markets..

Games were very successful when they sold just 100,000 copies or so back in the day.
There's no reason that shouldn't be feasible today...

I don't expect adventure games to sell like CoD, but I'm sure there's a market...

I am a bit skeptical, as this Cinemaware is not the original Cinemaware and the game should be developed by 3rd party. I am not sure if I am interested enough.

Here's an interesting quote from the comments section of the Kickstarter.

So, some of the "new" stuff might be old stuff that didn't make it...

Sounds more and more interesting....

Well, i'm not playing such game on anything without a physical controller, and i don't own a windows machine. if they just had a linux or os x version.

desiv 11 August 2012 22:08

Understood there.
I'd much prefer a Linux version too...

Just economics at that point. Many kickstarters have gone for Mac/Linux with the "stretch" goals, so you never know....
I'll be watching to see how they progress..

How can you not notice it I wonder!!! Good way to get people to just yell "shut up and take my money!"

pubzombie 12 August 2012 15:02

I didn't hear a word she said,
The German guys were great too - for totally different reasons! Anybody else backed?
It seems to be going slower than others I have backed?
Merge threads?

kriz 12 August 2012 18:04

But $350.000 ? Seems way too much for me ..
