I want both of them to be girls, although the reverse genders of banjo and kazooie is cool too

actually, i bet they're both girls. totally calling it.

Yep. I think so as well and it would be awesome.

 

[Shin-Ra]

Teehee.

 

[PSqueak]

Here's anoher one Playtonic retweeted earlier:


I bet they're stoked that people are already making fan art.

So good!

I'll try to cobble up some myself on my lunch break.

 

[jon bones]

i need a yooka-laylee halloween costume for my dog

 

[paragonpro]

Between this and maybe banjo, my Xbox one is going to bring me back to 1998.

Let's hope that's the only kind of fan art that gets made, but if splatoon is any indication we should have the other kind by noon.

Both names seem to sound feminine to my ears at least. I'm so excited for this.

Well now I'm convinced they need to decrease the size of Laylee's nose just a bit.

oops double post

General Kickstarter question:

Say I back $15 for a digital copy of the game............and later decide I want to back more. Will my donations accumulate toward a greater incentive, or does each incentive have to be one lump sum?

I think those people are just waiting until it's revealed which one is female

It will happen, it's just a matter of when.

You should never expect only one type of fan art for anything

 

[YianGaruga]

It won't be

 

[MR ARCADE FOREVER]

Poor bat his nose look like a red potato!

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Both Yooka/Yuka and Laylee are feminine names, so it wouldn't surprise me if both are girls.

 

[Crayolan]

Let's hope that's the only kind of fan art that gets made.

Have you ever heard of rule 34? lol

 

[Village]

They look better than banjo ... they look better than 99% of the stuff in a lot of their games.

So good job. Hope this new venture works out

If this and KI were apart of " lets do character design better " trend with their stuff, or in their " stuff" I'm down. Heck while I didn't hate how conker looked before, he looks pretty alright now.

 

[BlackRainbowFT]

Yep. I think so as well and it would be awesome.

I think Laylee would be a really cool tomboy.

Other than that, my appreciation of the game won't be influenced by their gender. For all we know, they could come from a weird universe where three distinct sexes are required to procreate.

 

[Yrael]

Unleash the mumbling!

EEE AH, REH REE RAHHH, EE RAH REH!

(Yes!)

Kazooie was kind of a tomboy too so I could see it

 

[Raven77]

When is the Kickstarter??????????

Banjo is my favorite game from the N64 era. This could be the first game that I go all out on with Kickstarter and pick one of those crazy "be in the game" options.

[Icelandic_Jazz]

Oh man the animation and movement look sublime in the gameplay footage. This has a ton of potential. Backing day one!

 

[Burt]

This is good, but I'll say that I would've preferred a bear on a bird's back.

Koala bear on an ostrich, anyone?

Or maybe a red panda.

 

[BorkBork]

Love the name

After you choose a pledge you should be able to add additional money while staying on the pledge you backed.

 

[kewlbot]

Yes. I distinctly remember a period of my life... like around 2008-2012, where I would regularly google "3d platformer revival" without results. I'm so happy it's happening.

3d plaformers are the one thing indie devs dont do much that i wish they did

like i know the whole pixel 8-bit retro mentality of reviving old style gameplay but 3d platformers are honestly becoming pretty retro and i'd wish more devs would realize that more

Also wondering about this.

KS campaign launches tomorrow at what I believe is 5pm BST.

Grabbed the new key art off the site, maybe add to the OP? Guess we'll be heading to snowy locations, get hype!

So colorful! Nice

my body and wallet is ready.

 

[limlark]

Hey

hey

What if the new dialog gimmick in this is just lots more music puns, instead of rhyme.

What if you have to collect lots of... lute.

Hey where are you going

I don't think I have been as hyped about a product as I am now.
We need a return to PS2-esque platformers.
