monkeyboobs Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 (edited) Yesterday some information and two screenshots from a Zombies Ate My Neighbors sequel pitch (that never went into full production) appeared on Unseen64 – following a tweet from 2020-08-13.

Udvarnoky Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Cool find. I don't know if it's the same project or yet another one, but the Rogue Leaders book refers to a cancelled 3D game meant as a spiritual successor to Zombies. Concept art for "Sawyer" can be seen here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderPeel2001 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 I didn't know this game was popular enough to warrant such attention? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udvarnoky Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 I dunno how one gauges these things, but I've always gotten the sense that it was a fairly beloved cult classic of the 16-bit era. At any rate the Limited Run Games business model seems to be based on retroactively creating the supply (manufacturing a specific number of units) after accurately measuring the demand (taking all orders in a closed period before going into a one-time production cycle), so I suspect it's all budgeted in such a way as to always be profitable - albeit at what I imagine to be razor-thin margins - regardless of how much demand there ends up being. They've done way more obscure stuff than Zombies, anyway. Heck, Monkey Island might well be less mainstream than Zombies, who really knows.
