It's finally here! After 2 years of development, I have finally finished my unofficial sequel to the greatest SMS game ever. Ladies and gentleman, I present Alex Kidd in Miracle World 2 First off, I'd like to mention everyone involved in the creation of this game. Calindro: Created KiddEd and provided invaluable coding support Playgeneration: Created a lot of the game's graphics and produced physical copies of the game Nicole Marie T: Composed all new original music for the game Maxim: Provided invaluable coding support and implemented new features W Lene Chaves: Designed the spectacular cover art So we have put together a small batch of physical copies of the game. Naturally, some copies are going to those involved in creating and supporting the game, but that still leaves copies left over. To make sure these copies go to loving homes, I have decided that all the people who recently contributed towards the site's upkeep costs (you know who you are) are given the opportunity to own one. All I ask is that you cover the cost of postage (I've covered packaging). If you're interested, please send me a PM and we can get something sorted

Honestly, as long as it´s not official licensed, I think it´s cheeky to call it AKIMW 2. The 2 should be removed. The artwork is pretty nice, though.

Can't wait! Did you make it yourself? Myself and a few others have been working on it for a while. I'll be sure to post full credits soon Honestly, as long as it´s not official licensed, I think it´s cheeky to call it AKIMW 2. The 2 should be removed. The artwork is pretty nice, though. Seeing as it's meant to be a direct sequel to the first game, I'm not sure what else to call it. I don't think having a '2' is an issue. Glad you like the artwork

A name like ´Return to Miracle World´ (the name of the other game that was made) would fit better. To make it an official sequel without permission seems to be very wrong to me.

First of all: Damn, wow, can't wait to see what it will be A name like ´Return to Miracle World´ (the name of the other game that was made) would fit better. To make it an official sequel without permission seems to be very wrong to me. I would agree with this but mostly because calling and advertising it with a title that sounds like something official can get you easily into legal troubles i fear. Segas isn't exactly unknown to throw a hissyfit about fan games, just remember how they acted about Streets of Rage Remake...

Sega would throw a hissy fit over the colour of the sky being too close to the blue of their logo

I really don't think they're going to care about a game made at production cost for a bunch of weirdos who play a dead system...

I really don't think they're going to care about a game made at production cost for a bunch of weirdos who play a dead system... But that's exactly what happened with Streets of Rage Remake. It's also what Nintendo is doing all the time, they shut down each and every attempt at a fan game. Other companies do it too like LucasArts going after a bunch of fans creating sequels to their favourite old LA games like Zak McKracken. Calling it really "Alex Kidd in Miracle World 2" is basically directly asking for a cease and desist which will shut down the project. It would be wise to use something different, like the mentioned Miracle World 2 or Return to Miracle World or whatever.

Plus, Alex is used in the Sega Superstars series as a playable character. So it´s not the case that Sega doesn´t gives a damn about him. I understand Ian, because he wants to make it ´perfect´, but a different name that fits to the game´s story would be better

Nintendo does shut down fan made games but those games reach a huge pc gamer audience.Nintendo didn't shut down the release of donkey kong jr on c64 and no trouble yet for super mario world....they don't bother with small fanbase or 20+ year old systems.If your going to try and sell the game you can expect a C&D letter quite fast though.
