KaMリメイク

Tonight is the 2nd of April and some things need to be explained.

First of all – we both (me and Lewin) wish to thank you everyone for the feedback. We have put a lot of effort into KaM Remake and it is really rewarding to see the community growth and support. The project would never be so advanced without the community around it. It really means a lot to us to have your support in our work.

As many of you have figured out, 1st Aprils post was a joke. We are not bored with 2D pixely graphics and KaM animations. We don’t drink pixely wine and like the recruits just the way they are, without additional facial hair. The images in the post were crafted in Lightwave 3D (3D Max alternative) in a couple of evenings.

You know how it goes with hobbies over time, they change. This Remake project has been our hobby for a long time, but as all things change in this world, so does it too… Last release (r6720) was very exhausting. Me and Lewin are still on a vacation from serious KaM Remake coding.

The chart shows the online player count since the 1st of December. r6720 came out on the 9th and is getting more and more players involved since.

Earlier this year, long-time KaM community member The Dark Lord interviewed us about KaM Remake for an article on KaM.net. Today the interview was published, you can read it here:

That site also contains interesting information about the development of KaM Remake, so read the development history section if you are interested.

P.S. Volunteers are now updating the translations of the upcoming KaM Remake release, and we are fixing the last few bugs. The update is planned to be released within 2 weeks. We apologise for the delay, us developers have been busy with our personal lives and have not been able to dedicate much time to the project until now.
