Re: Questions
You mentioned C64 in one of your earlier posts. Do you know anything about Commodore 1541 hardware issues? My floppy drive has been giving me issues and I was wondering if you could help me.…

Re: Questions
Ed has been posting some Chakan stuff on Twitter. Perhaps he's working on that instead? I was terrible at that game as a kid but a sequel could be cool.…

Re: Questions
Creature creation/breeding is fine as long as it's done properly. I don't know of many games that did creature creation right, it's very easy to turn it into a very tedious process.…

Re: Questions
When it comes to framerate all that matters is that a game runs smoothly. Most older games run at 20FPS or less, and that doesn't make them bad or unplayable.…

Re: The modern video game industry
Just a little something to add about QTEs. QTEs nearly ruined Killer is Dead for me. Very early in the game, the second boss has a mandatory QTE sequence where you have to mash the Square button…

Re: Questions
Finally, we have a rough date. Are you perhaps aiming for an April relaunch to coincide with BB's initial campaign? Thanks for the update. @Draikin: I imagine most people know what Ed has been…

Re: Questions
I wouldn't be surprised if the game ended up cancelled at some point. I think the time to ride the KS train has lapsed. Ecco is niche enough as it is, and the Mighty No.…

Re: Questions
The community could certainly be handled much better. Even our supervisor Art/Batboy rarely posts. Many people do not bother with official/corporate forums because they're meaningless - they're…

Re: Subnautica, new game from Unknown Worlds
That's what makes Ecco special - there are a bunch of games that take place in the ocean, but very few where you actually play as sea creatures.

I do not know if your intention is still to crowdfund or get the fans involved, but if it is I can make a detailed post on how to best avoid some serious problems in light of the fiasco that has…

Re: Learning from other Kickstarter projects
This was a similar project to Big Blue, a failed KS for a new Boogerman game by the original creators. Boogerman is a somewhat obscure Genesis game from late in the console's life cycle (1995).…

Re: Questions
Ed, did you have any involvement with the Japanese version of Ecco? In addition to some general tweaks and odd differences here and there, it seems the script is more fleshed out in the Japanese…

Re: Questions
The mix of nature and technology in the Ecco games was nice, but I liked that it was gameplay-wise built around the dolphins aquatic world. Ecco may have special powers but he's still just a dolphin,…

Re: Kickstarter Reward Ideas

Re: Oculus Rift
The Ouya has been a colossal failure. According to the company's own numbers, only 27% of users have even bought a game. I've heard they're popping up for $10 in pawn shops everywhere because nobody…

Re: Questions
Thanks for that bit of trivia! :) I'll add it to the Ecco wiki. Is Cyborg Dolphin the 'official' name? http://eccothedolphin.wikia.com/wiki/Death_Replicator

Re: Questions
I assume that space will be a part of the game at some point, but I doubt a dolphin (even Ecco) could do very much out there. Since sound can not travel in space, sonar attacks would be useless.…
