Leisure Suit Larry hits his Kickstarter goal
The smarmy little man in a leisure suit will definitely being making a comeback as Replay Games hits its half-million-dollar Kickstarter goal.
Larry, that smarmy little Lethario in a leisure suit, will be returning to your computer in reloaded form, thanks to developer Replay Games achieving its Kickstarter goal of $500,000 earlier today, with seven days still left in the campaign.
With the achievement in hand, creator Al Lowe can get cranking on Leisure Suit Larry HD, with the intention of getting the game on PC, MAC, iOS devices, PS3, Xbox 360 and just about any other platform that has a controller or touch device of some sort. Fans of the series have voted on getting more content in the game, depending on how far the company can get past its initial goal.
More details should be available once the final amount has been tallied, and you can still donate until May 2. In the meantime, have fun watching Lowe trying to make a few PSAs for the campaign:

i really can't understand the lack of interest in this kickstarter, i thought everybody loved Leisure Suit Larry, why it's not taking off like Double Fine's kickstarter !!!

Wasteland 2 and Shadowrun did pretty well

Lots of my chums lost any patience with, and interest in, Leisure Suit Larry long ago. A decade or two of growing up and many awful games will do that to people.

It's been a long time since the last good Larry game, LSL 7

Loved that game. It was just all sorts of fun. I think that I still have the disc somewhere in my stuff at home. I should fire it up again.

because they are asking for a half a million dollars to make a 2d remake of a 20 year old game, double fine was asking for 300k for a brand new ip.

^This.
I would be more enthused for a brand new Larry adventure. Although I do realise that if this re-make does do well, we may get "The Missing Floppies".

LSL was about as titillating as American Pie or whatever. It's not really meant to be exciting.

They were pretty much the adult themed versions of the old Kings Quest/Space Quest games.
Humor, sex, and charm.

Because the last great game in series was released 16 years ago.

-
Why? I don't really understand why some people want kickstarter to fail.
