Bat Lizard Bonanza (new NES shmup) FINALLY Coming to Kickstarter Nov. 15

[johnvanderhoef | 34]

Hey all,

It's been two years since my Kickstarter for Wart Worm Wingding. Thanks to all of you who supported that.

Since then, I've more or less completed my Muleniverse project, which includes five NES games all of different genres that together tell a much larger story.

You can check them all out here: https://itch.io/c/1395404/the-muleniverse

But the only game I've ever given a boxed release to so far is Wart Worm Wingding.

Well, that's about to change.

After many requests, I've finally gone ahead and organized a Kickstarter for the follow-up to Wart Worm Wingding, the shoot-em-up game, Bat Lizard Bonanza.

Technically, Bat Lizard Bonanza is the third game in the Muleniverse, since the first game, the adventure game Wampus, never received a boxed release either. To ameliorate this, I'm including a LIMITED SPECIAL EDITION REWARDS TIER that allows dedicated collectors to get a CIB of both Bat Lizard Bonanza and Wampus. (For those keeping track, that will leave just Leggite Luta Livre and Nemulesis left. We'll get to these next year if this campaign is successful.)

Anyway, I'm not much for tooting my own horn. 

If you're interested, you can sign up to be notified when the campaign launches here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wartwormwingding/bat-lizard-bonanza?ref=clipboard-prelaunch

And as many of you know, Bat Lizard Bonanza has already been available in ROM form for two years, and I've been updating it periodically based on feedback and my own caprices. It's finally at a place I'm comfortable with in order to cement it in cart form forever.

You can check the game out on Itch right now (I imagine some of you have already played it): https://johnvanderhoef.itch.io/bat-lizard-bonanza

And if you do already own it, and you back the Kickstarter, you can always gift the DOWNLOAD KEY to a friend or loved one.

Anyway, feel free to ask questions or offer last minute suggestions for changes. As always, I appreciate the support from many of you. This Kickstarter wouldn't be happening without you.

Cheers,

John
