Remakes, we all have a wish list but sometimes one comes along that you hadn’t realised that you want… then you see the trailer.
The Wonder Boy/Monster World/Adventure Island series is I suspect wasn’t very high on anyone’s remake list: However Wonder Boy 3: The Dragon’s Trap is in development and the trailer is linked below.
Development by the French developer Lizardcube and publishing duties are being handled by DotEmu.
The Secret Monster Society is looking for support through Steam's Greenlight program. Deceptive Games have released a demo for it's latest game so if you enjoy what you see then give the game a thumbs up vote, it doesn't cost a penny!
Have you ever wondered where you dreams come from? The Secret Monster Society is a 2d comedy adventure game where you play as Blithe Dalrich, a dream monster of the ‘underworld’ who, with the aid of his best friend Aphonic, sets off to stop an evil villain bent of destroying human dreams. Meet and converse with over one hundred colourful characters, all with their own distinct personality and quirks. Venture to sunny Caribbean islands, murky forests, dank caves, and even meet death himself.
The Secret Monster Society encapsulates a large amount of mini-games and puzzles. With, one key gameplay mechanic, the ability to time travel between two points in time. The time travel mechanic allows for greater puzzle variance, and story depth.
“The amount of support since first showing the game has been overwhelming. We have been trying to capture the aesthetics of the Saturday morning cartoons that many of us grew up with. And, from player reaction, we may have succeeded.” said Gavin Powell, game director for Deceptive Games. “We have grown up playing 2d adventure games, and combining the two has made for a perfect combination, for the both lore and aesthetics of the game. We are very excited for more players to get their hands on the game.”
The Secret Monster Society is currently on Steam Greenlight. If you would like to show your support, head on over to the greenlight page and vote: HERE.

After it's first Kickstarter campaign then again with a relaunch, Ghost Theory has now been fully funded on Kickstarter.
The team at Dreadlocks have also opened up an preorder page for Ghost Theory for continued support for the game.
Prague, Czech Republic—05/18/2016
Dreadlocks are proud to announce that their Kickstarter campaign for Ghost Theory was successful, which means this game is going to be made. Estimated release is Q4 2017 and at a price of 24.99 USD.
Everyday day we’re approached by new fans who just learned about the game and want to support its development. We have therefore created a pre-order webpage (http://crowdfunding.ghost-theory.com) to open our arms to these new supporters. Most of our original Kickstarter rewards are still available, including access to a prototype version of the game or a UV flashlight which you can use to reveal hidden content on other physical rewards – messages, facts, hints and, if you’re lucky, even an extra Steam key. In addition, we will be adding new rewards in the near future – ones that were not available as part of the Kickstarter campaign.
To honor this celebratory press announcement, we have decided to publish a new in-game screenshot of one of our selected haunted locations beside the actual real-life photo of that location. We hope this will get your spines refrigerated.

London, UK – 21st April, 2016: Fourthwall, the London-based virtual reality games studio, is proud to announce that debut title, ‘Dream Horse’ is launching today on the Google Play store for free. Dream Horse is available for Android with support for Mattel’s View-Master and other Google-Cardboard compatible headsets, (iOS support coming soon).
In Dream Horse, players are transported to a forest where they befriend and care for a magical horse, with whom they will explore a mystical dream-world.

What kid wouldn’t want their very own magical horse and be able to actually visit the forest where their horse lives?”, said Chris Etches, founder of Fourthwall. “While lots of studios are looking at the higher-end Oculus / Vive side of the market, we wanted to concentrate on being as accessible as possible, put simply, we want to make the Farmville of VR, and Dream Horse is the first step in that direction.”
Etches continued, “Bringing classic casual gameplay to VR has been a hugely interesting challenge, and we are looking to further this work with more features such as social play, set to come to Dream Horse very soon. Our second title, currently code-named 'Dream Cars' is set for release in June and will further expand the possibilities of social and competitive play within casual VR.”
Dream Horse features:
▪ Personalise your Dream Horse: Customise Hair and Mane colour and add extras such as a Unicorn Horn!
▪ Play 4 mini games with your Dream Horse: feeding, cleaning, jumping and exploring.
▪ Daily Play: Logging into the game every day will keep your Dream Horse happy!
▪ Social options: Take Snapshots of your Dream Horse and then share them with your friends!
