my only problem with them making a yooka-laylee rap is that its gonna be cheesy on purpose

the dk rap was genuine good old fashioned unintended cheese

All new stretch goals met, gg.

This looks absolutely awesome!! After seeing Grant Kirkhope as one of the composers, the hype reached 9001%.

I hope Microsoft can learn a lesson or two.

You'd think the 3D Collect-a-thon craze back in the N64 days would be long-gone, but looking at this Kickstarter, it still lives in spirit... for now.

 

[freakworld]

the collectathons slowly died after the n64 era

most modern jump n runs like ratchet & clank or the ps2 spongebob games (well not that modern anymore but in my brain its still 2007 so) have action segments instead

or mario which just became linear af

[Cirdec]

Eh, I don't like that design. Too fantasist for me.

[Paper Jorge]

hahaha so thats the game's answer to bottles

lol trouser snake

as someone else pointed out, its not just any trouser snake, its a one-eyed trouser snake

fucking brilliant, "rare" kept their humor

the collectathons slowly died after the n64 era

My point was that it still lived in spirit due to the overwhelming support for the funding for this game.

spoopy ghosts

or jinjos, w/e

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

Wonder if there is this "unexpected spoopy ghosts" meme similar to unexpected Jinjo.

 

[DragonFreak]

LOL as if it was enough of a B-K reskin in the first place.

Not saying it's a bad thing (nor anyone for that matter).

Although I do wonder what more Playtonic will come up with after Yooka-Laylee.

 

[Weasel]

i hope it's "killer instinct but not really"

"If only I had a pair of wheels...Maybe the final game will have a fun vehicle building mechanic?"

olololol

 

[Lumastar]

It's amazing what they can do in so little time!

"If only I had a pair of wheels...Maybe the final game will have a fun vehicle building mechanic?"

olololol

This was probably my favorite part. I can't wait to see the humor in the final game.

"If only I had a pair of wheels...Maybe the final game will have a fun vehicle building mechanic?"

olololol

Intentional jab at Nuts and Bolts?

I'm pretty sure. Hey, as long as they don't get sued.

 

[LeftyGreenMario]

You can't get sued for parody (you can, but you won't win the case), but even then then, phrase is just vague enough to not violate copyright, but specific enough that Banjo-Kazooie fans get the joke.

Oh Playtonic you sly dogs
