YA-HOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU DID IT!!! Nothing could make me more proud right now, you guys!! We promise to give this game the entire 25+ years of experience each one of us veterans has to put all of the culmination of our years of making great games in to this product. We think (and hope) you'll like it as much as we like making it. Here's a special thank you from one of the stars, Mr. Josh Mandel, himself.
-Paul T. signing off (and going to bed.....finally!)
Future updates will be done on The Replay Games Forum from now on, gang.
Head on over to our good friend Jane Jensen's page and give her a little boost if you don't mind. She too is one of the best writers in the entire interactive adventure space. Here's a link to her campaign: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1005365109/jane-jensens-pinkerton-road-2012-2013-csg?ref=live Go Jane & Robert!!!!!!! We love you guys!!!

The usual adjectives are “lavish,” “fine art quality,” and “gorgeous,” we just weren’t sure where to stick them. Plus you’ll get all previous reward tiers!
Estimated delivery: Oct 2012Pledge $75 or more
280 backers
Alpha & Beta testing: At the $75 pledge level, this is where you start to become actually involved in the game’s development. You’ll have access to the beta versions of the game, so that you can respond to us with praise, suggestions, praise, compliments, complaints, praise, bug reports, and great joy and gratitude. Plus you’ll get all previous reward tiers: the digital copy of the (finished) game, the digital edition of the soundtrack, and the PDF of “The Art of Leisure Suit Larry: Reloaded.”

Signed Edition: Our $500 pledge “Signed Edition” should really be called our “Descent Into Madness Edition.” You will get a limited HARDCOVER edition of “The Art of Leisure Suit Larry: Reloaded,” SIGNED by Al Lowe (with his OTHER hand!). AND you will get “Special Thanks” in the actual game credit. That’s right, your name will be right up there in pixels! AND you will get a sheet of 20 authentic, collectible Leisure Suit Larry 1st Class postage stamps. These are actual, legal, US gubbmint-approved stamps which you can use to send letters. Hey, remember letters? They were things you sent in the mail. Hey, remember mail? Plus, you’ll get all the previous reward tiers! (please add $15 for international shipping)

Larrywood's Walk of Shame Edition: For each of our 20 $750 pledgers, we're creating a Larrywood Walk of Shame. We'll be putting your name into the game -- not just in the credits, but engraved on its own individual star set into the sidewalk somewhere in beautiful Lost Wages! (We reserve the right to let Larry or the Narrator make some kind of comment about it when he finds it, just in case your name itself isn't very funny.) And, of course, you'll get everything from the lower tiers as well. Note: these stars will ONLY be available at this tier, not at any of the higher tiers! So grab 'em while we've got 'em!
Estimated delivery: Oct 2012Pledge $1,000 or more
42 backers Limited (8 of 50 left)
Limited Edition: There is no possible way to set a price on all the collectibles you get at the $1000 pledge level. (Oops, we just did.) We are striking 50, and only 50, signed and numbered lithographs of custom Larry artwork. For a $1000 pledge, you will receive one of these 50 signed/numbered lithographs, PLUS one of a limited edition (again, only 50) “Girls of Leisure Suit Larry” calendars, again with custom artwork, and again numbered and signed by Al Lowe. The calendars and lithographs are available at this tier only, not in any of the other tiers! You’ll also receive all the premiums from all the previous reward tiers! What a bonanza! (please add $15 for international shipping)
Estimated delivery: Oct 2012Pledge $1,100 or more
2 backers All gone!
Lizard’s Edition: At the $1,100 pledge level, you’ll get one of two gigantic, durable, limousine-sized Leisure Suit Larry banners. Two is all we have, and we’re not making any more, so don’t even ask. These banners are signed by Al Lowe, and each contains an exclusive typo that makes it highly unlikely that anybody can (or would ever want to) duplicate them! These banners will not be available at any other tier! Plus, of course, you’ll also receive all the premiums from the Signed Edition tier and below…because we care. (please add $20 for international shipping)
Estimated delivery: Oct 2012Pledge $1,250 or more

Pervert’s Edition: So let’s say you want to pledge $2,500, but you can’t see yourself ever setting foot in a disco, real or virtual. We can’t blame you for that, but we’ll still make you famous. One of Larry’s most memorable scenes is when he attempts to buy a “lubber” at a convenience store, and the customers jump out from behind the aisles and scream “Pervert!” at poor, demented Larry. We’ll make YOUR face into one of those pervert-yelling patrons! You’ll also receive all the premiums from the Signed Edition reward tier and below.
Estimated delivery: Oct 2012Pledge $2,500 or more
1 backer All gone!
Doggie Style Edition: Here’s another hypothetical: you’d love to be in the game, but you’re really more of a dog person than a disco-dweller or a pervert-shouter. We’ve got you covered! For a $5,000 pledge, we’ll immortalize your dog in the game. Whenever Larry gets…uh…refreshed by the dog outside, that’ll be YOUR dog! (Please, oh please, let it be a Shih Tzu!) You’ll also receive all the premiums from the Signed Edition reward tier and below, because why should your dog have all the fun? (please add $15 for international shipping)
Estimated delivery: Oct 2012Pledge $2,500 or more
2 backers All gone!
Drunk's Edition: Here is another option for the $5,000 pledge. There are two featured drunks in Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards, and you can be one of them! We’ll use your name and image to recreate you as a down-on-your-luck, staggering, sloppy drunk…and knowing you, that’ll be a cinch for our artists. You’ll also receive all the premiums from the Signed Edition reward tier and below. Maybe you could sell some of those collectibles and get a fresh start?
Estimated delivery: Oct 2012Pledge $5,000 or more
4 backers All gone!
Lefty's Bar Edition: For a pledge of $5,000, you can be a patron at the bar that Destructoid called the #1 bar in all video game history! We’ll use your name and image as one of the drinkers at Lefty’s, sitting right there on your very own stool, an “honor” previously reserved for Sierra employees only. You’ll not only become a part of Sierra history, you’ll also receive all the premiums from the Signed Edition reward tier and below. (please add $15 for international shipping)
Estimated delivery: Oct 2012Pledge $5,000 or more
2 backers Limited (4 of 6 left)
Disco Edition: For a $5,000 pledge, we’ll make you part of gaming history…by putting you into the game itself!!!! (So if you haven’t hidden the kids yet, now’s the time.) We will feature your name and likeness as one of the people in the Lost Wages disco. We are only going to turn 6 of the disco patrons into Kickstarter pledgers, so this is a VERY limited offer and will not be available in any other pledge reward tier. You will also receive all the premiums from the Signed Edition reward tier and below.
Estimated delivery: Oct 2012Pledge $5,000 or more
1 backer All gone!
Naked Edition: Another alternative reward for a $5,000 pledge, and this is truly one-of-a-kind; only one pledger will be able to claim this reward. You can be the broke gambler wandering the streets of Lost Wages wearing nothing but a barrel! We will use your name and image as the Barrel Man (or Woman), and we promise not to show any of the naughty bits (“unless,” as Kathy Bates always says, “the script really calls for it organically”). You will also get all the premiums from the Signed Edition reward tier and below.
Estimated delivery: Oct 2012Pledge $5,000 or more
0 backers Limited (1 of 1 left)
Age Verification Edition: Here’s our last unique pledge, and then we’ll shut up about the unique pledges and start talking real money. At the beginning of the game, we have famously used a bank of random questions called the “Age Verification” quiz to keep out players too young -- or too tasteful -- to play. We will use YOUR NAME in the bank of quiz questions. You will end up in every walk-through in every gaming website across the world! This is a one-of-a-kind offer; only one person will be able to claim this reward. Plus, you will get all the premiums from the Signed Edition reward tier and below!
Estimated delivery: Oct 2012Pledge $10,000 or more
1 backer Limited (1 of 2 left)
No Free Lunch Edition: For $10,000, we’ll create a memory that will last a lunchtime. You will be flown (domestic airfare only) to Seattle to enjoy lunch, dinner, or a morning-after breakfast with Leisure Suit Larry’s Mommy’s Baby Daddy, Mr. Al Lowe himself. He’ll sign whatever you want him to sign (except IRS forms and blank checks), answer all your questions about life, tell you some dirty jokes, and, best of all, he’ll do something that he’s never done before in the history of the world: he’ll pick up the check! We’ll put you up overnight and send you back home happy, fed, and loaded down with all the goodies from the Signed Edition reward tier and below. We’ll even give you the entire chocolate factory for your very own…oh, wait a minute, that’s a whole different licensed property.
Estimated delivery: Oct 2012

Wooo Larry! Can't wait for all the old school kickstarted games to start coming out! Throw some love to the Republique kickstarted too, they're quickly running out of time and it looks really cool
Creator Sean Jordan on May 3, 2012
I'm stoked to have backed this LSL project, as well as Wasteland 2, Shadowrun Returns, Double Fine Adventure, and Jane Jensen's CSG game, Moebius. All five are a great return to classic PC gaming, and it's wonderful to be able to see them leading the charge for the next evolution of indie game development!
.
(I'm getting weary of microtransactions and oversimplified indie games, so it's good to see adventure games and strategy games getting a proper return to form!)
Creator A.A - The Dream Travelling Echidna $6.13 on May 3, 2012
What a wonderful video! Much kudos to Josh for the Jane Jensen plug. So awesome that it's not just a oh-by-the-way kinda thing (which Schafer's one and only mention on Twitter felt like a while back) It's really evident that he's genuinely passionate about the Jensen project too! Really awesome stuff.
Yay Replay! :D
Creator Kristian Karlshoej on May 3, 2012
am proud to be backing both this and Jane's game :) Will back the Spaceventure too!
Creator Lee Ritchie on May 3, 2012
Congrats guys, if I could have pledged more I would have.
Creator Dag Leistad Müller on May 3, 2012
Congrats Replay! I'm so happy we went beyond the $650.000-mark! MORE ROOMS, YAY! And I'm glad Paul (and the rest of you, offcourse) finally gets some much needed, and well deserved, beauty-sleep.
Creator Kinnon Yee on May 3, 2012
please continue to update the kickstarter page for major updates please.
Creator Shawn Michael Recinto on May 2, 2012
Thanks guys, I just clicked over and supported Jane
Creator Ian the Fleming on May 2, 2012
Another great video with Josh Mandel!
Screw the big publishers! This may be the only way to make the kinds of games we want to play, but I'll be happy to contribute every time.
Creator Acefox on May 2, 2012
Woo! Congrats! Can't wait to play!
Creator Andrew Nicholson on May 2, 2012
This last month has felt like a party indeed. It has been so positive and made me feel really good. Thanks to everyone involved. Can't wait to play the game. See you on the Replay forums.
Creator David Palmer - Member, Mutant League on May 2, 2012
I too cut my teeth on adventure gaming. So happy to see the buzz that has been occuring via Kickstarter!
Creator Matt Cullinane on May 2, 2012
This is truly a dream come true. I still remember when I heard that the Sierra as I knew it, and adventure gaming along with it, was over. I grew up with Sierra games, and I still can't believe that my childhood heroes are slowly, but surely, making a comeback. Bless you all!
Creator calbeb on May 2, 2012
Major thanks for pimping the Jane Jensen Kickstarter. We need that to work out!
This has been an amazing experience to be a part of and at times observe. Thanks to everyone at Replay, and all the fans who made this happen.
Creator Mt on May 2, 2012
All I heard was "Spaceqest."
Creator Kevin Behrendt on May 2, 2012
"We want a resugence of Sierra"
What a great idea! Daedalic is the Lucas Arts of the 21st Century but should that be all? Of course not! Diversity is the key, so let's get back to work you great minds of another time as I was not more then an embryo!
Maybe all of you get together some day under one banner and call it.. no not The Banner Saga. Maybe... Arreis? :D
However, we made it. We really made it. Congratulations Al, Paul, Josh, the whole gang of Replay Games and us - the backers.
Creator Justin on May 2, 2012
I second that about Larry 2 or any other Larry project! If possible keep the kickstarter email list and feel free to spam the crap out of me. I want to know day 1 when it comes to anything Larry.
Creator Dirkovic on May 2, 2012
Yippieehhh!
Awesome!
It was a fun month, I had many laughs watching Al's videos and can't wait for the new old Larry game.

Creator Frogacuda on May 2, 2012
This is going to be the best year for adventure games in like at least 15 years, maybe longer than that. New Tim Schafer/Ron Gilbert adventure, new Scott Murphy/Mark Crowe adventure, new Al Lowe Larry remake, Jane Jensen adventure and HOPEFULLY a new Tex Murphy. Unbelievable.
If even a couple of them sell well after their release, publishers are going to have to take note.
Creator Dylan on May 2, 2012
What's that catchy music in the background?
Creator Nelson ☜☆☞Menacing Mop☜☆☞ Miguel on May 2, 2012
Please support Jane as well... She has a new adventure game in the works, Moebius... and possibly in the future another Gabriel Knight!!! And check out the two guys from Andromeda, creators of the Space Quest series... They will have a project on Kickstarter as well i think for a new Sci-Fi game... They have a poll to choose the rewards for the pledges...
http://guysfromandromeda.com/
Creator Duncan Sluijter on May 2, 2012
Sleep well Paul you deserve it. Joshua I will definitely look at Jane's kickstarter and support her too! Not as much as Larry though. Wink wink.
.
Is there a possibility that for Larry 2 there will be a kickstarter too or something else? Please stay open and honest to us so that we CAN create and keep this community together. That IMHO means the forum needs to be refurbished, more overview a good and simple design. For now Kickstarter seems to do this better then the Replay forum.
.
Good luck with everything guys @ Replay Games and Aventure Mob.

Creator John Taber on May 2, 2012
I want to ditto what Bob and Devon posted. Especially email out to backers when the game is done through kickstarter.
Creator Pedasn - "Asylum" Backer on May 2, 2012
SO MUCH THANKS FOR THE TEAM TO BRING THIS BACK
and so much thanks for the community to make this happen
i have backed janes project a few weeks ago, but now my fansupport goes into that kickstarter, and then it will be THE TWO GUYs. I also want to bring attention to the TEX MURPHY kickstarter that starts on 15th. They were not part of Sierra, but the tex murphy games were a lot of fun.

@Josh: thank you for that inspiring video. and again i want to tell you that your videos are above the others in quality (lighting, composition, sound white balance, script). i applaud that. we need more quality videos on kickstarter.

Creator Palindrome Bob-XSF-I'm in AGL589-AK666 on May 2, 2012
I too, will probably not spend a lot of time at the forum, so every important communication should be put on the Kickstarter page. Even if that communication consists of a link to a thread on the forum, that's enough for me. I will be spending the time waiting for Larry with beta-testing and maybe playing 'Cognition: an Erica Read Thriller' and beta-testing and watching the documentary of the new DFA-game.
Creator Devon Rampe on May 2, 2012
Yes thanks Paul for doing updates on Kickstarter! Kickstarter emails us every time there is an update, so we can just read it in our email, or click it to come directly to the update. I don't know if the forum will automatically email us for every important update like that.
Creator Richard Falletta on May 2, 2012
Damnit! I'm so stoked! Problem is now I REALLY want but have to wait to get it. And as Larry knows, sometimes waiting is the hardest part. ;-)
Creator Tomimt on May 2, 2012
Oh, and thank you Josh and thanks to Al and Paul as well. This is going to be sweet.
Creator Tomimt on May 2, 2012
This has been intense, even more so than with Wasteland. And what comes to Jensen, I too urge people to pledge. She's an amazing writer and she deservers the change to bring us the stories she really wants to tell.

Thank YOU, guys! Can't wait to play the game!
And thank you for the Jane Jensen-shout out! I'm a proud backer of that project as well, and hope more of the Larry/Sierra-fans will join that campaign.
