While I'm busy building The Dawn Star the awesome Dean Tate and Brian Chan are remixing the original Captain Forever in their own style. It's obviously going to look a little different, and I think it's going to be pretty awesome. Sign up to their newsletter why dontcha!

Wait what I need to see screenshots of this when it nears the time! For some reason this brings to mind the old EV-Override mods (or plug-ins) I used to get...

Hey cool to see an official post about CFR on the official forms of Captain Forever I'm Dean Tate, and I'm working on Captain Forever Remix. I'm a good friend of Farbs and we used to work together at Irrational Australia (hence him putting his trust in Brian Chan and I to make this amazing thing). Happy to answer questions about the game here (along with Farbs) and there's more info about the game at our site: captainforeverremix.com/Tumblr is a good place to follow development: pixelsaurusgames.tumblr.com/And lastly, good twitter accounts if that is your thing: @capforeverremix @ iamdeantate@bchansays

Hi everyone! The first gameplay video is now live: Shows off a good chunk of where we're at on the project. I'll be showing off some of the "new" stuff soon (ie. the stuff that wasn't in the original game). We're right in the middle of some interesting gameplay experiments! Remember, to get more updates on the game check out our tumblr or join the mailing list: pixelsaurusgames.tumblr.com/captainforeverremix.com/Look forward to hearing your feedback

The module designs look pretty neat, although the character designs aren't exactly my thing (then again, this is coming from someone who'd start bawling like a six year old if I had to watch cartoons, even now!)
I'm kinda questioning the lack of different sprites for the higher level lasers, and they're really hard to see anyway. I'm guessing that'll be something that'll be fixed before release, though. xP
The background clutter's a nice touch, kinda makes it feel like you're flying around in an asteroid belt of junk of sorts.
Overall though there isn't much to comment on from my eyes, since I usually take a look at released builds before I make any judgments. Looks like you're doing well so far though, from this footage!
(Good luck making any sense of this post though... it was done at one in the morning with no caffeine of any kind!)

Awww man...I cant wait to try my hands on a remix of one of my favorite web browsing games of all time. By the way the banner for the game looks awesome, who made it? I’d love to know!

Woo! Glad you're excited DAxxxnNOOBxx. I made the banner, and I'm doing art for the game. Brian Chan is doing code, and we're getting Danny Baranowsky (Super Meat Boy, Crypt of the Necrodancer, Canabalt) to do music. Make sure to sign up on our mailing list so that you'll know when the game is coming out (trust me, you won't get spammed. I only mail that list when there's really big news): captainforeverremix.com/Admiral Kirana, thanks for the kind words! I love the ship design sketches you posted in another thread

Cool art iamdeantate!
Oh, and is Danny Baranowsky the guy who made the music for the game The Binding of Issac too? Love the red haired guy with the moustache by the way!

EDIT: Purchased! Enjoy my money.

Locked it in Eddie, can't wait!
Really excited about the plot and having a progression; a goal in mind. I dig the cartoony style, it offsets the harsh, sterile environment of space somewhat, giving it a more playful vibe. Really hope there's music.
So how soon is "soon"? This year?
Keep it up guys! This game pulled me in at first glance, totally worth remixing.

Airen: oh, there'll be music. Danny B is set to start working on stuff next month. He's well known for Super Meat Boy, Canabalt, and most recently Crypt of the Necrodancer:
"Soon" is this year. We're aiming to be on Steam Early Access well before the year is out, and ship by end of year. Of course, that could change but it's our goal.

Ever thought of more levels or a dueling system? I would love to see 1v1 duels, or Lima-or-higher levels. BTW, the stats are already done at the Beginners Tips/Info Thread (or something like that). It would be awesome if you looked!
