Earlier in the year I talked about how excited I am because they will be releasing HD remakes of the Leisure Suit Larry series... starting with LSL1 and eventually going all the way up to LSL7... well, they must have hit a bit of a snag when trying to find a backer that was willing to fund this project, and now it is seemingly, in the hands of the fans.
That's right folks, Replay Games has extended an invitation to anybody and everybody willing, to throw some money into a Leisure Suit Larry Kickstarter campaign. They are requiring $500,000 in donations due by May 2nd, in order to make this remake a reality. The good news is that they are almost halfway to their goal already ($233,000 as I write this,) with about 21 days remaining. Here is the link if you want to donate!

They have tierred rewards for various amounts of donations that fans make, and so far, I have donated $15 which is the minimal, but will entitle me to a free copy of the remake when it is released. The futher up the donation ladder you go will get you things such as a huge LSL remake art book, the ability to beta-test the game, and for those with a lot of cash to blow (we're talking thousands,) you could even have your name included in the game, or maybe even your dog.
I am crossing my fingers and toes that they do get all the funds they need to make this game a reality and I hope it does well and that they do indeed end up remaking the entire series.
