| A Remaster is coming! | 2023-03-17 | Dear community, Thank you for your enthusiasm following the revelation of the concept arts for the Twinsen reboot project. Our studio is at a turning point: we finished the prototype, and are currently in discussion with several publishers to make the game possible. As you know, the road to a project of this magnitude is long and full of unknowns! We believe in the potential of the Twinsen's universe and want to keep it alive. But we also have to prove to publishers that 30 years later, these games deserve to exist in a modernized version. This is a real challenge. We believe in it... and we know you do too!

| New Game+ modes incoming on the 31st of May! | 2022-05-20 | Hello everyone, In May this year, we are celebrating the 25th Anniversary of Twinsen’s Little Big Adventure 2 Classic. This event is truly special for me. In 1997, I was 8 when I discovered the world of Twinsen for the first time. 25 years later, it’s now my (dream) job to bring Twinsen back. As you may know from Gwen’s last devlog, we are working on updates of the Classic games. Before digging into the details, I must confess there’s one thing we kept secret… We are bringing a NEW GAME+ mode for both Classic Games! In this mode, you will experience the full story starting with end-game items like the Sabre, the Protopack and Magic Level 4! N |
| Devlog: New beginnings | 2022-02-28 | It has already been 5 months since we announced Twinsen’s return… Seems like yesterday!

The main news from the past weeks is that the studio is working on rebooting Twinsen’s story: Twinsen’s Little Big Adventure. Be sure you read Didier’s letter to understand the reasoning behind this choice. In today’s devlog, I’m going to talk to you about the Classic development plans. If you missed the news about what stands for Classic editions, you can check this blog post. Our plans for the Classic Games We want to bring the legacy |
| Devlog: We are releasing the engine source code! | 2022-02-17 | After our “LBA returns” announcement beginning September on Twitter, the community response was truly amazing. We anticipated a bunch of cool reactions but not so many and not with so much love and support!!!! Again, thank you. So, what have we been up to since our last talk? Going a little bit deeper into the rabbibunny hole... The past couple of weeks, I’ve discussed with people close to the original games, being either the programmers working at Adeline Software or the game creators themselves. I also started talking to fans that initiated personal or community projects during the past years. And I had an epiphany. So dramatic … *insert 🥁 |
