Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...urns?ref=users
Shoot Straight. Conserve Ammo. And Never Cut a Deal With A Dragon. Jordan Weisman, the creator of Shadowrun, is back and Shadowrun Returns*(for Apple & Android tablets and PCs) is the game that Shadowrun fans have been waiting for a long time. A graphically rich 2D turn-based single player game with deep story interaction, meaningful character development, and highly-contextual tactical combat, Shadowrun Returns is not only going to make some old geeks (like us) very happy but it will introduce new players to a dynamic gaming universe that is beloved around the world.* |
Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
Kickstarter is bleeding me dry with this retro stuff. I'm in for this, Wasteland 2, and Leisure Suit Larry.

Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
Funded in 28 hours, at 498k right now.

Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
I used to play Shadowrun on the Genesis and SNES. Fun times.

Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
A real Shadowrun game would be impressive. $15 isn't really that bad either if it ends being even half as good as it sounds. (And thanks Duran ;), now I might be interested in the Lesiure Suit Larry one too). Is it wrong of me though to wish that these would come to Xbox Live though? I just don't care for PC games even though as of a few months ago I have a machine that actually supports most modern games. I write, I surf the web, I facebook, I mess with graphics but really don't care to game. :)
I'll think about these two projects though and possibly donate. |
Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
New video and new image..fund more get more
Mac support and riggers have been added, reach 1 million and there will be 2nd city, backers choice and more http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/2...inggraphic.jpg |
Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
I wish at a certain tier (well $100 or under anyway), they would do a physical copy with box. But maybe if it gets enough funding they will do it. Interested in that editor even if it is ugly (now with a little more lipstick *lawls*)

I'll think about these two projects though and possibly donate. We'll see what Double Fine does with their adventure game. They raised so much that I would think that if any of these projects could get on the consoles, it's that one. But if they pass, I wouldn't hold out much hope for the others. |
Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
I recently donated to kickstarter for a buddy's short film. I couldn't imagine donating to it for something that doesn't have any personal connection. Just my thoughts (well not grundle too's thoughts).

Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
My pledges have been primarily for board games. They have all had exclusive KS items which makes them extremely tradeable if the game is disliked.

Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
New update and 1 million dollar mark achieved
New rewards tier 125$ deluxe box set game comes on sr/ks custom USB dog chain https://s3.amazonaws.com/www.harebra...usb_dogtag.jpg Also a shadowrun primer to read up on the universe http://harebrained-schemes.com/shadowrun/primer/ |
Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
Republique has lots of promise, but I don't feel the need to kick in $15+ donation for a game that will be in the sub $5 price range.
I don't mind Kickstarter helping get games made, I just haven't seen one that has grabbed my attention yet. |
Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
Well I was thinking about the $100 tier, now with the box set on the $125, I almost have to consider that instead (since that is one of the main things I was looking for in the beginning). Glad it made the over million, but there was little doubt once it hit the initial goal so quickly. I think about it for another week and then act.

Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
New Shadowrun update, T-shirt designs for those that back at 60$ level as well as new all digital reward tier:

Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
another update:
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...s/posts/214053 More added benefits to the different reward tiers: As well as a picture of doc card: https://s3.amazonaws.com/www.harebra...cwagoncard.jpg We're sweetening the deal for our $30 Reward Level backers! In addition to everything they already get, they’ll also get the IN-GAME DocWagon benefit too! A Reminder: Every backer at the $50 level and above gets their own copy of the SOUNDTRACK! Reading through the comments about the Backer T-shirts, we see lots of fans for all three designs, so we’ve decided NOT to survey backers about which shirt back you want most. INSTEAD, backers at the $60.00 level and above get to choose which shirt they want! Today, we’re incredibly excited to announce that Marshall Parker, who wrote the music for the Super Nintendo game and Sam Powell, who wrote the music for the Sega Genesis game, have agreed to COLLABORATE on the music for Shadowrun Returns. |
Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
Awesome, for the backer shirts I was leaning towards the gray w/ blue just because it is different from all of the black shirts I own. The only negative to that shirt is that it does not actually say Shadowrun which is odd compared to the other two.

Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
ShadowRun is in its final hours, Its made its final 'stretch' goal of 1.75. (with paypal it is over 1.8)
I think it gets close to 2 million, maybe like 1.90 (including paypal). I think they could hit 2 million if there was additional details about the game/new rewards..looks like they are good of just riding this to the end, the last few updates they haven't offered any new game ideas or rewards. |
Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
It's down to under 2 hours now!! Can't wait
For all you people who haven't pledged, go for it:D |
Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
I did my pledge yesterday afternoon (all $125 of it)...and they ended up at well over 1.8 million (supposedly almost 1.9 once they included the paypal stuff). I just hope they keep up regular updates since it will be next year before we see the actual game. But I am super excited, and can't wait to see the level editor among other things.

Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
Everyone that backed this, you should be getting or have already gotten your surveys for the 2nd city, Here were the options:
And some results are already coming out: https://s3.amazonaws.com/www.harebra...hartExport.jpg |
Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
I went with Denver. A smuggler's paradise sounds like the best idea to me. But unfortunately, it does not look it has much of a chance. If I had to do a second, I would have done Hong Kong though.
|
Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
I voted for Chicago, but really, I can see interesting potential in all six, so I'm sure I'll love whatever they come up with.
|
Re: Kickstarter: shadowrun returns
It would be cool if they added the other areas as expansions/dlc to continue the game.
