    Apr 4, 2012 - Shadowrun RPG crowdfunding #1

    Shadowrun was my favourite RPG back in the day, now they're trying to do a great 2D RPG for tablets/PCs!

    Shadowrun Returns by Harebrained Schemes LLC — Kickstarter

    I just donated my part

    Ugh and i won't get paid before then to donate. I already had to back out of my Wasteland 2 one because of unexpected bills. I'd love to get this game though, i miss the 2d Shadowrun games for the SNES and Genesis.

    I remember the Shadowrun games for Genesis and SNES being completely different. I think the SNES one was the one I really loved. Which one had you wake up in a morgue at the very beginning?

    Now that is cool! I played a lot of ShadowRun table top though I lost faith in the system when they rebranded deckers as hackers. But this looks good. Now the only question is how much I pledge.

    I just played the pen/paper SR adventures, best gameplay ever imho! I always wondered why noone made a movie. I mean, it has SciFi, monsters, magic etc...what more can you ask for?

    Sadly, it probably wouldn't do very well. Sci-fi/fantasy tends to be a niche market unless there is a huge pop-culture tie-in. I would see it working better as an animated series. That way they can tell a story and create the background lore without trying to cram everything into a 2 hour block.

    That was the SNES one. Yeah it was 2 different takes on the same universe, the Sega one was a lot darker and more in depth. I'm hoping to sell my Kindle so I can donate.

    I'd love to be able to pick up the grand prize. But I'll do what I can, and make sure my friends are aware of the kickstarter program. Thanks!

    We're closing in on the last few days so everyone chip in even 15.00 and get a copy of the game. It's looking good, they got the guys who did the music for the SNES and Genesis games to help with this. I think they're even bringing back some characters from those games.

    Folks are making sure it's known that they don't want the SNES/Genesis tie in mission to be available to only the people who donated a lot of cash. I donated to the Wasteland 2 one too. I did 30.00 for them as they had better packages for goodies. I plan on making my own docwagon card.

    Just got an email saying that even though investors get the DRM free game all DLC are going to require Steam and won't work with the DRM free version. I'm seriously ticked.
