[Each weekend we're going to be getting some links back to some of the remakes we've covered over the years that we think you should check out (well, hopefully each weekend anyway, real life depending) and we figured we'd start the ball rolling with a look back at some of the remakers with more copious catalogues of remakes out there before delving into some of the more obscure stuff. We're starting with, in case you hadn't guessed, Ovine By Design]
Ovine have been around a while. In fact, as far as my hazy memory goes their take on Atic Atac was one of the first remakes I got to play way back when MS-DOS ruled the world with it’s iron grip of user unfriendliness. The core duo of AndyH and StuC has expanded in recent years to include collaborations with Trevor “Smila” Story on the graphics front and Infamous on the music front.
Click through for a little guided tour of Ovine remakes to date.
OOoo… thanks for the nice write up! A repeat for a big credit to be given to Infamous and Trev for making such vibrant audio and visuals in many of these remakes. We’ve also got a few remakes we’ve not added to the menu’s … yet … such as Paradroid, Wunda Walter and Flossy Throw along with some strange oddities. We’re in the process of moving and refreshing the site (a process taken a year so far LOL) which is nearly complete, so I’ll post up a new URL in the comments if you don’t mind once it is ready … in case there are any problems with the ovine.net domain.
No problemo and yar, go for your life when you’re ready
Nice write up thanks, boy we have been busy. Hope this encourages others to get their fingers out and start knocking remakes out. – anyone can do them
