Dear community,

As promised, it’s high time to explain our project in detail. Since the creation of our studio in 2021, our vision has always been to bring the Little Big Adventure series back to life.

The Abandoned Reboot

Our initial ambition was to reinvent the story of Twinsen through a reboot: discovering his origins, his powers, and his entry into this extraordinary universe. With the invaluable support of Didier and Fred, we redefined this universe, without constraints and for 18 months, integrating:

  • A new gameplay

  • A new camera

  • A new story

  • A unique biome and story per island

  • A new artistic direction

The Evolution Towards The Remaster

Faced with the difficulties of convincing a publisher for the reboot, we announced the project of remastering the original games. This project – less risky – was intended to reassure publishers about the potential of the license. By remaster, we mean the original game with mainly graphical improvements. For a while, the reboot and the remaster coexisted.

Unfortunately, the reboot project did not convince. We found ourselves with a remaster project that didn’t really excite us. After working on a reboot free of many constraints, the return to reality was difficult. We then decided to modify this project to arrive at what will be released: the remake.

The Alchemy of the Remake

Thus, the remake project was born, merging the best of our initial ideas and classic elements of the series. This remake of Twinsen’s Little Big Adventure Classic originally made in 1994 will integrate:

  • A smoother gameplay

  • A modernized main storyline

  • The geographical continuity of outdoor scenes

  • A reinvented artistic direction

  • The improvements from TLBA2 Classic

  • A harmonization between TLBA1 and TLBA2

Other changes and novelties are planned, but we will talk about them later.

We hope this article answers your questions and clarifies our intentions.

Your Involvement

What are your expectations for this remake? What elements would you like to see integrated or improved? Your passion and suggestions guide us in this adventure.

As a result, the game’s name is now Twinsen’s Little Big Adventure.

To support us, add the game to your wishlist and share it with your friends. Thank you!
