KKnD 3, almost

It's been a while since the last petition tried to force Beam Soft, Melbourne House, Infogrames or Atari to release KKnD 3. In the meantime, there have been some fan projects that tried to revive the series. Be it a mod for C&C Renegade, C&C Generals, Spring or something based on one of the Unreal engines.

Now finally there's a more modest approach in the works: Two friends of mine and I are working on a KKnD 1&2 remake. I'm more of a producer and do some work on file formats, while the other two do the real work and program the game. It will be java-based and the interface is designed to work on desktop PCs and mobile devices. To get 100% KKnD feeling, our game uses the original KKnD 1&2 assets.

Additionally, the game is easy to mod, so you can graft your own strategy game onto it, maybe using sprites from another older strategy game or your own ones. The engine can also handle 3D models and maps, so you can create a full 3D RTS, if desired.

And finally as a proof of concept, some pictures:
