VGA Planets "Nu" - The official VGA Planets remakeMonday, May 31, 2010 For those of you who know me well, you'll know I've always had a soft spot for the science fiction video game VGA Planets. In fact, I've been a player for nearly 20 years and so has my Dad. As a software developer I've often thought about making a new version of the game as the game gets older and older and the technology more outdated. A few weeks ago I contacted Tim Wisseman the original creator of the game and asked him what he thought about a web-based remake. He thought it was a great idea and has pledged his full support. So, we have launched a fundraiser in the hopes of raising enough money to get us started on the project. The fundraiser is taking place at Kickstarter and we would love your support! Go to http://vgaplanets.nu to get started. Find the promo video and fundraising page here at Kickstarter: CommentsCrazycavey - Wales, United Kingdom - Sunday, June 13, 2010 3:22 PM I hope you manage to get the project started and more importantly completed.
