IGN says PC, MAC, PS4 & WII U
We've been following Playtonic for a while that is why it wasn't mentioned in the title.

This got me thinking.
How would everyone want their voices to be? Would you want it to have voice actors or, like in Banjo-Kazooie, the sounds?

This looks great.
I always kind of struggled to see how they would spiritually recreate the characters of Banjo and Kazooie, but this is so much better than I expected.

My backing of the Kickstarter tomorrow is contingent on:
- Yooka Laylee Amiibo
- Yooka getting some articles of clothing like Banjo did
- Yooka or Laylee's gender being changed to female.

OP probably should have, but since GAF has been following this game since the original teaser, i can see why OP didn't mention it.
Im pretty sure #1 is one of their goals for the kickstarter, they mentioned Amiibos in the conference they had not long ago. #2 might happen since they have acknowledged the reaction to Yooka being naked in twitter. Finally, they have no official genders announced so far, so it's a safe bet at least one of them is female.
It was confirmed in IGN bruh

We? Not everyone can keep up on all gaming news, haha. I knew there was a BK successor in the works but I didn't know the studio's name. Either way, it WAS mentioned in the OP and I need to read more closely next time.

You'd only support a 3D platformer revival based off minor stuff like that? Reeeeeaaally?
why changed to female? Its not confirmed that both are males and from what playtonic has been tweeting it doesnt seem to be the case. IGN just assumed it

It is a great time to be a gamer if every loved 90's genre/franchise can get their Pillar's of Eternity.

I doubt any voice actors could nail what they be saying in these games without it sounding so bad. Old style please.

Yeah, I'm with you there.
Found a new in-game shot over on Tumblr. Weird that it's not featured on IGN's article, I thought they had the exclusive scoop?
Source?

Would've loved for that to be the actual title!!!. I love the character design, i'm just wondering if its going to be 3D, 2D or 2.5D... hopefully it's full on 3D.

Oh fuck it, I'm in even if you can't.

Got nervous for a second there lol. I'm so exited, this looks so good.
Full 3D, if you can't open the video, check the gifs on previous pages.
Okay, so after Andy's tweet, I'm gonna call this now: Yooka is female and Laylee is male.

I'm excited at the notion of playing a Banjo-Kazooie-esque on a PS4
Yooka-Laylee, clever, very clever.

Going by the video tease, it looks pretty 3D to me.
Yeah thanks guys, i already saw the video, it looks mighty tasty.
The gender of the characters seems a pretty weird thing to get you to back it imo.

My main issue with Kickstarter is mostly people who make the games don't have level 1 done to show off. Seems these guys put in their own funds to make level 1 for a pitch video. So yeah, going all in.

Woah. Just looking at the different enemies in that picture there is variation in their expressions, and some physical differences as well such as some having a shorter right ear, and of course size with one on the bridge being bigger than the others. Also I think the two in "front" have different colored hair with one being orange and the other red, but it might just be a trick by the lighting. I don't know why I'm impressed by differences in cannon fodder enemy appearances. lol
i was already hype as fuck for this but grant kirkhope music basically ensured i'm day one backing

You would be surprised how many people back something just because of the backer awards or stretch goals as opposed to the game itself.

I don't see what is weird about it. Then again I am woman and I know how it feels not having enough positive representation in fiction.
It is minor for you, not for the other poster.
Ahh there's even a secondary strong-type enemy on this page

Eh, I wouldn't really bite on the speculation if I were them, if anything if I saw this happening I would kill it immediately with a confirmation before it turns into a mess before the kickstarting even went live.
