Project Giana

Very very cool looking kickstarter project

Unfortunately they probably won't be able to collect the money for Ouya port, but there's a good chance they at least acquire the sum to finish the game at all.

looks awesome!
i love the switching between the both styles where also the music doesn't even stop but only change

You can also download the demo and play two levels for yourself:

It's one of those games where I'd like to pledge but I'm still not willing to get a credit card just for Kickstarter's Amazon Payment model. Would be cool if it gets funded although with pretty much just 4 days left I doubt they'll get the money still needed...

time to take one of my old ideas of the shelve great to see some one
creates this reboot of giana sisters that game rocked

i still play the old version on c64 emulator.

I am not really into this sort of gametypes, but I have to say this is reaching perfection . The music, graphics (art & technical) and gameplay seem flawless.

Playability is very very very good. I tried the demo and it ran just perfectly fine.

I played the demo, seems to be a fun game. The level and music switch is really well done. I hope Machinae Supremacy will do more soundtracks for the game.

played it and looooooved it

Graphic and gameplay is nice but the transition between styles and the music are amazing. First time i see something like that in one game.

8k to go and 3 days left.

Sounds like they'll make it!

For sure considering that the amount of new pledges where stable for the last days. I'm quite glad about that.

Chris Hülsbeck just composed the best game soundtracks ever.

The project looks fun
Im personally still waiting for a well made Turrican 2 Remake
in modern Style.
(And a Soundtrack Remastering than can actually
reach the Amiga original)

I dont know why, but this has to be one of the most boring games(demos) I've ever played. Or maybe I just don't get the whole idea behind it?
yes, yes, I admit it has a great design and everything but... the gameplay feels boring to me.

It's excellent classic jump'n run!!

I only watched the video and it seems like there isnt much to it other then visual enthrallment.

Played the demo:

looks very nice, but the controls suck.
They made movement much too complicated for a platformer.

Having to use like 6 Keys simultaneously.
That will put casual players and children off.

Just using The Left,Right,Up cursor and Space
would be enough to do all options.

nice graphics and effects, but it is really for children.

the transition between the different music styles (together with graphics) is a great idea (but imo applied too often), I will try to do something similar when I step to game music creation stage (it is not too complicated with midi based instruments, or when e.g. guitar is recorded dry, and only software effects are used, I have some experience in it.)

, to be honest, I dont like transitions between the music in Giana very much. Just like battle music in games like UT 3, it changes pace too often. Maybe you can do in your game that music changes but it loops out and loops in (through each other, so that the change is less noticeable and more subtle). I find these visual transitions adorable though.

yes I wrote it too that it happens too often. after a few minutes it could be disturbing...
