Since the OP has no guideline except 2 questions I am taking we don't need to make questions specifically about wonder boy ?
Because I love soul bubbles and I am brazilian so I am obligated by law to make a turma da monica question
This sounds like a great idea - I don't have any questions myself right now for the Wonder Boy team, but I do think that these kind of initiatives are awesome. I'll keep you in mind when thinking about things to do with our own community in future!
why did I get an alert on this? i was in the middle of performing brain surgery on a baby elephant, and the distraction led to a fatal error
why do you kill baby elephants, resetera? i'm an important man with a lot going on!
/s
nice feature, keep it up guys
Did you learn any lessons from this game that you could give advice to others who are making games?
How tempted did the team feel about updating the gameplay for modern standards?

Yes.Thought I would be the only one to submit a question about "Turma da Mônica"
Boy, there is more brazilians than I thought on ERA
You can play the original game if you buy the remake and enable the original graphics and sound in the menu :)Sad to say I don't remember the original game though. Remake art looks nice.

Don't worry, you're good!Submitted mine too, but I think I may have slipped up.
I just clicked on start a conversation on your profile page, as the only other option I could see was for people in the industry.
I hope that is what I was supposed to do, apologies if I did it wrong.
I still haven't picked Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap because event though it looks amazing and hits some nostalgia points, I'm a little scared that it might play just like those games in the 80's, and they were mostly frustrating. On the other hand, there's one reason that makes me want to buy it: the Turma da Monica (Monica's Gang) mod:
So I'm thorn between the fear of it being frustrating, but amazed to be able to play with the Monica's Gang characters (not that the original art is bad. They're actually amazing, but Monica is effin huge here in Brazil, and everyone loves it). And now I've found out that this game was made by the same guys that made Soul Bubbles, so it definitely grew in my heart. <3
Thanks for the quick reply.
Oh, that's great! Thanks for the info!It's definitely got some old-school sensibilities like being sent all the way back to town with no spells and a random shot at a free medicine that restores a random amount of hearts, and maybe you'll wish to go visit your favorite treasure spots to stock up before retrying, (the charm stone mechanic for unlocking new shoå items was eliminated from the remaster), but I'd say it's still one of the 8-bit games that holds up the best to this day (I'd even say it's the best game of the gen next to SMB3). The remaster also gives it a fresh look if you're not into big pixels!
And oh, there's also an Easy mode if you do feel it's difficult. I think the bigger concern is value as it's not a terribly long game.
Anyway, gonna think of some questions. Already got one childhood mystery solved by the dev on the old forums (regarding the weird "houses" on clouds that would randomly appear in the post-prologue cutscene).
