    It's confirmed, Tower 57 will be ported to MorphOS (and AmigaOS 4), if it reach a 1000 euro streatch goal. This is the first big budget game for NG since ... never?

    The game looks great

    But...

    I assume strech goal of 1000 Euros means about about 17K left to reach 46000?
    Sorry but I dont see that. The campain is already running for 3 weeks and has 1.5 left.

    First week and last 48 hours are always the busiest. I remember the Commodore: Amiga years book that got some 15.000 the last two days or so.

    I would personatly love to see a WiiU Version, but that is unlikly as they need to pay a huge amount of money to deal with the FSK shit, which caused several game developers to avoid releases in the german eshop.

    It will be done (if they reach the goal). Daytona of Cherry Darling will do the port. The game will be in C++ (mostly at least). He has been in contact with the developer and thinks it can be done. And since Daytona delivers, I don't doubt him.

    And yes, both AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS will be ported. It says so on the kickstarter description.

    Pledged 35 euros, hoping that the stretch goal is reached to allow an AmigaOS4 & MorphOS version to be created.

    Yes, there's always a risk that too many people think "It won't achieve the goal anyway...", don't pledge, and the project fails to reach the goal because of that :-)

    The only real risk to the user is, if it does reach the goal, but not some specific stretch goal (of course there's always the risk that the project starts and fails later)

    I'd say it's very much possible to exceed the minimum, but not by too much...

    I second that!

    While I dont believe the goal will be reached I already supported
    the campain with money and hope that I am wrong.

    It looks like a really nice game with a lot of thought put into it. I backed it a few days ago for a boxed version. We know the Amiga OS and MorphOS versions are in safe hands with Daytona so If you like games for MorphOS then help make the final push now.

    The trend is good. Some more backers to secure the trend? :)
