La-Mulana: Difference between revisions

'''''La-Mulana''''' (ラ·ムラーナ) is a [[Metroidvania]] platformer videogame for Windows. It is freeware, and was developed by three people who call their development group Nigoro (formerly known as GR3 Project) in Japan as a tribute to the [[MSX]] computer system / gaming console (and includes tons of references to such). You play an [[Indiana Jones]]-esque [[Adventurer Archaeologist|archaeologist]] who must solve the numerous puzzles throughout an immense set of ancient ruins.

''La-Mulana'' is aan homage to the 8-bit action-adventures that you might remember from your childhood. It wants to instill in you the same sense of fear and awe you felt back then. The sense that everything is at stake and anything could happen.

A [[Video Game Remake|remake]] on [[Wii Ware]] was released in Japan on June 21, 2011, with 32-bit sprite graphics in place of the MSX-style ones, among various other changes; it was developed by the same three guys who did the original. An overseas release localized by Nicalis was planned, but was [[No Export for You|ultimately cancelled]] due to development problems and the decline of the WiiWare service. However! According to [http://la-mulana.com/en/blog/sorry.html this post on NIGORO's blog], [[And the Fandom Rejoiced|the remake is still coming to PC]]. And this version ''will'' have an overseas release.
