Everytime I see any media related to this, I get mad. It's been 3 years since I put money to it and still no hint of a release date.
At this point I actually think Yooka-Laylee will be out before this.
>>338251005
When was the last time we got any info about this, at all?
It's starting to look like the indie FFXV at this point

This is the first I've heard of this, tell me more anon.
>>338251214
They occasionally post on facebook, most of the posts are like this
HEY GUYS LOOK AT THIS NEW GRASS WE MADE AND ALSO THIS NEW DEPTH OF FIELD THING AND HAT GIRL IS WEARING A NEW BADGE. WE'RE GOING TO IGNORE ANY COMMENTS MENTIONING THE RELEASE DATE.

There's a lot of dirt on Mecha the Slag. He's mistreated his employees, bailed on projects, and blackmailed someone on a forum because they didn't get along.
>>338253007
>Mecha the Slag
I'll do a bit of research on this guy.
I just want muh collectathon.
>>338251005
>Backed 4 games in 2013
>Only 1 of them came out this year
At least I've never funded a game since.
>>338251005
What the fuck.

Hat

I cautiously funded Yooka-Laylee since I absolutely loved Banjo but I haven't funded anything else because of a Hat in Time. I don't want to risk my money.

>>338253481
Well, that was a weird choice for the title art.
>tfw gave 150 to mn9
>>338253810
They've already changed it to make more sense, that's an old version.
>>338257269
What? It's still A Hat in Time.
>>338257473
This is the new logo

Ahh, you meant the logo, my bad, thought you were talking about the title.
>>338251005

>believing MaxofSJW
Played the beta or whatever and honestly anything original they did that wasn't just directly lifted from SMS was kinda bad. It would have been a better game if it was just literally a SMS level pack.

This game is garbage. It's derivative but souless and has none of the magic the old games had.
>>338258750
??? Where ???
They haven't shown it yet then
mfw they speedran it at a gdq

>throwing your money at kuckstarter at all
Serves you right.
>>338259579
At least one of the devs is a speedrunner/TASer so not surprised it would get in desu. Especially since GDQs also have shit like BOI and Minecraft it's far from the worst game they've included.
>>338259818
It was an advertisement before an enjoyable run. I'm not sure how many speedrunners out there strictly run through betas, but the run was "fuck with fps settings for a bit then generic platforming".
It was weird is all I'm saying.

Guys big Yooka Laylee news coming out today! I thibk...

Oh yeah?

>tfw when you came out of the Kickstarter craze of a few years back with your wallet and dignity intact
When Armikrog came out and was a buggy mess I got all the confirmation that I was totally right in ignoring kickstarter

>mfw I did my KS in 2014
The lead fag stole assets and shit in the past, hard to trust someone with this track record
>>338251005
>He actually gave Slag money
>>338258351
He wasn't the only one though
He's stolen multiple things from multiple creators
Kickstarter and early access was a mistake, it takes all the risk out of the equation of creating a game. What's the incentive to make a good game when you can get all your expenses paid before it's even done anyway? Without them devs need to make sure their stuff is good to get the return of their investment, with those things they don't need to invest anything at all, because people are already funding the product they'll sell.

You deserve nothing, absolutely fucking nothing, for naively paying for something you can't get, don't know when you'll get and have no real assurance you ever will get.
I don't get people.
>inb4 supporting independent developers
Fuck off, if they make and distribute a good product then they will get the compensation they deserve. Paying for them to make betas for you to test (if you're lucky) is about the highest form of stupidity in consumerism (the bar is very high on this) I've seen in, well, ever.
Just give someone else your money.
I don't know what to feel about kickstarter.
I wanted to support La Mulana 2 but ended up not doing it and now I can't find anything about it. I remember around 2013 the kickstarter page said it would be released by the end of 2015 but it hasn't released yet.
>>338272356
Oh come on. If La-Mulana 2 came out any time before the end of 2016, you'd know the game wasn't fucking finished.
The size of the game guarantees at least 2 years development time. You can check their kickstarter page and see that they've had at least 2-3 updates on the game each month. The latest update was 2 days ago in fact.
Unlike many other KS projects, this one is handled by a team that actually has experience and have shown they can create and finish a game.

>>338272781
Somehow missed the updates this past year, although I can't check the full details since they're for backers only. If it is coming along well I'm really glad.
>>338272781
>team that actually has experience
usually thats a red flag since they're just using their names as a cashgrab. Its tough to find anyone who wants to make a game because they genuinely want to make a game because they like games and not just for the money.
>>338272356
They update regularly for backers, it's coming along.
>>338253007
I went on the same Mario fangame forum as him for like 5 years. He was promoted to a super mod for some fucking reason and be was the world's biggest asshole.
To list it, he...

>Banned and infraction whoever the fuck he disliked

I hate this cunt and his shitty game
It's a loli game; of course it'll never come out.
Never ever.
