Kick-started Remake of Leisure Suit Larry Now On Sale
First time accepted submitter Zanadou writes "Al Lowe, the original creator of Leisure Suit Larry and other classic games, announced earlier today the final release of the remake of the first game of the series, Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards: 'This is the moment I've been waiting a year for – Leisure Suit Larry: Reloaded is finally available! Right now. Tonight. For PCs and Mac. At the Replay Games site. (It would also be available via Steam, but they refuse to release a game at midnight; they said 'Tomorrow.' Hmm.) iOS versions will be available as soon as Apple releases it in the iTunes store. Android will follow shortly.
What a night! Thank you to everyone who contributed to our Kickstarter campaign. It's been a long, hard year but I think this game is well worth it.'"
To be honest, I never did see the difference between Kickstarter and begging for charity. As far as I can tell even if the product becomes wildly successful, the expected return on investment is exactly zero percent. Maybe I'm missing something here.
Only if it includes the original Turn to Page 6 copy protection and none of the copies include the manual.
... and the Stoned or Michelangelo virus on the disk.
