Since reviving things from the past has become a thing these recent years, it seems Bubsy out of all franchises is getting the same treatment. Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back was announced today for the PS4 and Steam. The good news is it's being developed by Black Forest Games, known for creating Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams and being published by Accolade, who have risen from the grave to publish this new title.

A 30 second trailer was released which can be viewed below:

Are you getting your claws ready for the new Bubsy game or do you think it belongs in the litterbox? Tell us below!

Those that says its slow. Keep in mind this is using the same engine that gave us Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams and Giana Sisters: Rise of The Owlverlord and those games were quite great in my opinion.

So the new Bubsy reusing the same engine will give it the same level of gameplay that we got from Giana Sisters.

Hey, stay positive. It can only be better than the original, can't get worse. Modern "nostalgic gaming" crybabies keep saying that we don't get enough platformers these days - well, here you go, play your hearts out. :lol:

Damn it, why only PS4 and PC have masterpiece like this and Switch didn't? Nintendo should convince them to make this for Switch and 3DS as well.

You beat me to it: those recent Giana sisters games are great. So much so I wonder why black island games bothered picking up one of the most infamous franchises on the planet to begin with. And on that note...accolade? They vanished off the market in 2000...are game companies now remastering former game companies too, or was that just a legal requirement to use the franchise? :unsure:

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
