Hello fine people, platformer enjoyers and dare I say it... friends? I come with glad tidings and a new video for you! I (Steve, hello!) sat down with Gavin Price, [strike]Supreme Glorious Leader[/strike] Game Director on Yooka-Replaylee for a bit of a chin-wag about the game, the progress we're making and some of the key differences both IN this demo that we shared with media and also some of the changes that have happened SINCE this demo was first shown! Get this in yer eye holes: [previewyoutube=9_tP6kgRV-0;full][/previewyoutube] Some of the topics covered while I fumble around with a controller, trying to listen to my boss... - [b]Coinelius' coins' new colour[/b] — Coinelius, the helpful piggy bank and new character edition to Yooka-Replaylee has already undergone a change with his beautiful platinum coins having stolen the golden hues of the Quill because... - [b]Level-specific Quills[/b] — Having given up their golden coat to Coinelius' coins, Quills now come in a variety of colours as they become specific to the level the player is currently in. Why is this? Because our crafty salesman Trowzer has gotten pickier over the years. -[b]Trowzer's new wares[/b] — The role of Trowzer is fundamentally changing in Yooka-Replaylee with a whole new set of wares to sell. What these wares are we are not ready to reveal quite yet. - [b]All moves from the beginning[/b] — In one of the bigger changes to the game, and why the role of our beloved salesman has changed, is that players will have access to the full arsenal of Yooka and Laylee's moves from the start of the game. - [b]New Pagie pieces collectible[/b] — A new collectible has joined the roster in the form of Pagie pieces. Collecting these will unlock additional bonuses. - [b]Levels available in their "expanded" stage from the start[/b] — In another change to the original Yooka-Laylee, levels will now be available in their entirety from the very start. We'll be showing off some new content in the New Year, as well as bringing you a wrap-up of what we've revealed so far since June in the coming weeks, so stay tuned for that! Also worth mentioning, that [b]YES[/b], we're going to discount Yooka-Replaylee if you own Yooka-Laylee [i](On Steam, and working with the console platforms to ensure this too)[/i] and YES we are still listening to your feedback on what we reveal so far, I can't promise anything as we're all very busy bees but as the Community Manager, I'm seeing your comments and feeding back everything! That's all for now, new friends, see you soon! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2448020/YookaReplaylee/?beta=1
