    NEW

    Hello Guys, I'm happy to announce the acquisition of a new SNES game to Piko Interactive's Library. I bought the license from Compedia and we are beta testing to see how complete the game is.

    Mr. Bloppy Saves the world, an Unreleased platformer for SNES will be released later this year on our website, as well as other games that I will later Announce.

    Im currently working on the Multicart (getting ready to ship out the Kickstarter backers). And after that, I'll be posting more games that we are working on/acquired.

    Let me know if you guys have any suggestions or comments!

    Thanks!


    I was working on the art yesterday, this is it:

    I'm not following why you need to do a Kickstarter for this and give up a significant fee to Kickstarter and for payment processing. If the game is ready, why not just start taking preorders via Paypal to finance production?

    People have been making repro carts of Uwol and N Warp since the roms was made public, those other games as well probably......


    Also, did you have a hand in developing these games? Or have you been given permission from the developers....

    If You have not, basically youre taking others peoples work and selling a reproduction 4 in 1? Nice. Thats like making a kickstarter to release repros of Bahamut Lagoon or Seiken Densetsu 3....

    Should have just opened a site and took in individual orders for repro carts, if any of these independent developers get wind of this Im sure they are going to be less than thrilled with you. I hope you cleared everything with the developers.

    I do not think the reproduction people asked for permission with the developers nor have a royalty fee set up for each game sold.

    over 50% of the money paid for each cart goes to the developers. Also, the reproductions are for a single game not 4-1.

    I think paying developers for their work is a good incentive for them to keep making games.

    Matt, Mukunda, and Alekmaul all of them have agreed for this project and are receiving royalty checks.

    Thats what I was hoping to hear. This gives these developers incentive to produce more games! Best of luck!

    Thank you!

    all the support is greatly appreciated.

    I myself designed the art for a game, which another known developer is working on right now. So we are just trying to keep this alive.

    I missed the info Paro Duh asked about on my first look over the page, even knowing it was there:
    Disclaimer: All images, character names, videos, and source codes have been permitted to be used for this project by the original developers.
    It still is a bit unspecific about what the agreement was. You're saying that you give 50% of proceeds to the original developers, and that would be a nice thing to include on the original page and would make people feel even better about supporting this.

    I hate to say it, but there's people selling Wiki texts online and it doesn't hurt to be a little careful.

    Actually I did't add the % anywhere or have said an exact number because developers asked me not to, some of them don't want even their names there, I don't know why.

    But I can tell you that each developer has their own %. Now with the possible 5th game/new menu the % will be adjusted.
