Hi, I'm the lead designer on the original game. Amazing what you accomplished! Really gives a taste of what a full modern remaster could be. Impressive work!

Pretty cool to see! Hit & Run deserves a re-release on modern platforms and Steam.

I would murder all you scumbags in cold blood for a new Simpsons game.

I'd rather have a remaster of Hit and Run. Most Simpsons games are trash.

I'll take what I can get. But yeah that would be sweet. It was near perfect except for the graphics. How they decided not to cell shade that game is beyond me.

I really want to replay it and see if my fond memories hold up.

Something that's kind of interesting to note is that because the Kwik-E-Mart has glass doors and windows, the camera in the original game purposefully doesn't let you look outside since nothing is there. So when you're walking around an interior level, which are small and seperate from the rest of the map, the camera is less like GTA and pulls back to show a little more of the interior. That is to say in the original Hit & Run, I think the developers liked showing off the interiors and the different animations in the background. That stuff would be really cool to see in a remaster.

Just as a heads up, yesterday the source code of the original game was leaked online, so a fanmade remake might be one steep closer.

I liked the 360 one from 07

a better, more complete game than Cyberpunk 2077 at this point...

I remember playing this one on the game boy. I remember being chased by bees.

Now get the rights to port it, with the arcade game, to playstation! That's really cool man, I love it!

One of the best games ever made. I could kill for a XSX/PS5 release although i could play it with a 4k patch on pc.

The Simpson's Movie game was really good. Too bad we never saw a re-release. The movie will be 15yo next year and people were saying the Simpsons were dead then lol.

I've been watching The Simpsons from the beginning on Disney Plus and got to say that series 1-10 are pure gems.

He also made a GTAV clone in 24 hours with a $300 budget!
