I think the interview sums everything up well enough. It'll be out very soon.

[JohnderriLLL]

do u guys remember a game called fighting force? i thought of that when i saw the screens.

[Doulifée]

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D

[DeryckAK]

i c wut u did thar

Congrats on the big break.

[!Nekko!]

Sexy, man. Nice work.

[Miletus]

Demo is totally rad. Will breakfalling be in the final game? (holding up+jump when being thrown and you land on your feet)

[Gollgagh]

I do.

Streets of Rage owns FF, though.

Why do you insist on typing like that?

[Less Ashamed Of Self]

This is very good news.

I really love it when stuff like this happens.

Now for a Cave Story sequel. :)

[Geko]

I've been following this remake since last march. I can't wait for the final release!

[Malcos]

Yes! I'll be looking forward to this :D

[The Coop]

I remember when you PMed me about this long ago Gecko. Nice to see it reached completion :)



Imagine the chaos that would ensue, if Sega slapped a C&D on this just days before its release. Remember the villagers in "Frankenstein" with the pitch forks and such? That would likely be considered a warm welcome compared to what Sega would have in its hands after how many times the US has gotten the SoR shaft over the last six years.

[Evilhead]

Awesome, I can't wait to get this one!


And congrats on the gig Gecko.

[Zutnunzor]

You make the best remixes man.

I'll play this just for the god damn music.

Can't wait.

[Bahamut]

Yeah damn.

[TSU]

You make the best remixes man.

I'll play this just for the god damn music.

Can't wait.

QFE

[The Coop]

There's something I'm curious about, which wasn't covered in that article, or answered on the site.

Which version of the various sprites did you use? We all know what Sega did the US version of SoR 3, and how a lot got edited (women's attire, basic outfits for some characters, Ash's removal, etc.). Did you use the Japanese sprites for reworking, or the US ones?

[GeckoYamori]

I think both of them are in there for the sake of variety. There are also reworked incarnations like the SOR1 Electra, Galsia, jugglers and karate guys. Along with a broader set of alternate palettes.
