It seems unfair to undust the article so old that is more than a decade, but we got maintenance role from MIG himself and we're working on modern compatibility of the game in order to cover the original version's discontinue after it got smashed by DMCA. LC2's remodel was pretty successful so I myself think at least I should do something in order to make the game (LC1) not being "lostware" forever.
The Issue We Need Additional Helps
- Add in-game GUI and functions to freely edit controller input in the game (like in reworked LC2)
- Make the game's data compatible to 289.3 or higher versions of Clickteam Fusion. This is because the game will break in following places if the game's project file is loaded in 289.3 or higher versions:
- One background will break in Hunting Ground part 2 sub boss (the hive)
- At several places contain large swinging spiked balls, their collision will break (Science Hall part 1, part 2, Katharina's quarter part 3 have them)
- Several music clips and sound effect clips are needed to be replaced in order to get around copyright infringement risks (the original game got panned by DMCA takedown request in 2018 so unfortunately the changes to sound clips must be made, regardless how they fit so well into the game). This case needs additional helps from composers/sound effect creators.
