Right. Scope has grown quite a bit since we announced the original release date. If it releases in Oct that would be about 32 months since work first started. Here is what it started life as http://indiegames.com/2013/12/gothic_sidescroller_the_7_towe.html

First time I am seeing this thread. Love the visuals and execution. Will definitely pick it up when it is released on either WiiU/3DS or PS4/Vita. Have not made my mind up yet. Good luck!

Not actually that important
WiiU has been canned then?
This looks fantastic. I only first heard about it a few weeks back. Definitely want it for WiiU
I'm looking at the kickstarter, this thread, the developer blog, and the steam forums but I can't find this information. Where are you seeing it?

Thanks for the update. Wasn't complaining just trying to confirm
Well, the very first post gives tentative release dates for everything under the sun, except Wii U. It's my first time in the thread and I agree, it looks cool, but I was wondering the same thing.

Saw that this was coming this fall when I was browsin coming soon on steam. Surprised it was coming out so soon.
WiiU release will be Early 2016. We are small team and will be doing all the port work ourselves, which will start once PC version is released!
Understood! Glad we could confirm. If you didn't visit the Steam forum yet here is the link..

Is there a possibility of a DLC metal soundtrack? I'd buy it.

I know I'm probably in the minority but I wish this was early access. Gotta play this now!
There sure as shit is! I am going to post something here tomorrow - a preview of 5 of our tracks in game. We are aiming for a full album sized soundtrack (12 tracks min), recorded by Curt Victor Bryant of Celtic Frost.
Here is something for you! A new bit of footage we recorded for a show and Andrew added a new track! Grrrr get some!

At least post these updates without sounding like a pandering bafoon.
Game looks ace anyway
Edit: that was rude..sorry. Just don't make the posts sound like automated PR blurbs
Lol, then that's fine. I thought you were talking baby talk to us.
No way. Does it explain anything if I say I'm English? Might change the tone you read it in a bit.
