King's Field ll Remade

Unbelievable! This is a 10 out of 10 work. I can’t believe I just heard about it only to find it’s on hold (💔). Great work!

An amazing remake, it captures the awe and fun of the original while making the game easier to play for a modern audience (especially the modernized controls and fps). I loved exploring and fighting new enemies, I'm sad it had to end where it did. Whatever stuff you do next I'm excited to see and thanks a bunch for making this remake. 

I've now played this remake all the way through five times within only a week ;-v-. Thank you so much for making a modernized version of the beginning of the game, I'm still trying to get used to a first-person game with the wacky 1995 controls King's Field has so I haven't gotten terribly far in the original game itself (same story with Ultima Underworld actually, old first person games no matter the platform seem to have control wackiness).

Some small notes: 

• There is no ability to unequip items or spells (unlike the original)
• Saves are seemingly ordered randomly rather than based on when the save was made or last saved upon
• The quick button item will change to the flask even if you have set it to something else like the pirate's map (which I noticed while looking around to make sure I'd found everything)
• This may be a me-thing but the poison feels inconsequential, it doesn't last long enough to damage you enough to create the desire to use an antidote and doesn't do enough damage within that time to make you need to use a herb or flask (this may be moreso the fact that the newer controls make the game easier in general)
• I once got stuck in a wall in the cave that has two skeles (I don't remember which exactly but it has a little alcove) it was a rough wall so I assume it was that I got stuck below on of the triangles (I'm not sure the collision implementation here) it's not a big deal and I don't know how to recreate it, it was more amusing than anything

Even with those small issues, I love the controls and feel of this remake. I will certainly be replaying this remake numerous times more before I can get used to the controls and feel of the original game. I'll put up with my computer revving up hard with the CPU usage of the Unreal engine ;v-v.

Much love~

Amazing demo for a remake of a classic! Sincerely hope you can do the resto of the levels. Would love a full remake with the great graphics and better controls!

Immediately went to grab the knight sword only to be disappointed.  0/10.  Just kidding.  This looks and plays great.  Really manages to update the look and gameplay without compromising the nuance of the original.  Well done!

Loved the demo. Never player the old kings filed games except IV and this one is faster, but really enjoyable. Are you using Unreal Engine? If so, everything is blueprint code, some C++ or all is C++?

Hello! I'm trying to extract the game but I keep getting an Error 0x8096002A: No description available for a bunch of the files in the game. Was just wondering if I was doing something wrong?

Hey first time playing any King's Field game. After attacking if I wait for my attack bar to fully fill will my attack do more dmg than if I attack as soon as I can? Thx and thx for the remake, wanted to play the game for a long time.

Sorry I'm a bit confused, is this going to be a full remake in the future or are you only remaking a portion of the game? I'd absolutely love to play a full game of this. Would even donate if need be to get it done.

Also this demo is REALLY great. I love the little touches like enemies having new animations and moving legs. So cool. if there were a few tiny things I could change, it'd be nice to have the weapon and magic bars be optionally at the bottom middle of the screen or so, it's easier on the eyes than having to look up to the left every time to see if your weapon is charged. Also I think it's a bit dark in areas where it doesn't need to be, just needs a bit of work on having better lighting in areas.

Very good work though, awesome demo.

The game of my childhood... What a pleasure to play keyboard mouse... You have done a remarkable job. bravo

i seen lobosjr was streaming this demo he really loved it is impressed with your work

Watched someone play this remake recently and holy heckie it looks so good! And yeah like bravecat mentioned, it's SpaceYeen at Twitch who I found out that this project existed at all from. Honestly would love to see this thing finished, you're doing an awesome job so far!

just so you know, https://www.twitch.tv/spaceyeen is streaming the demo right now for a few hundred viewers! we're huge fans of king's field on his channel, so we're ecstatic about the work you've done so far. thanks for taking on this project!

i really want you to continue development on this if i can support you some how let me know

I never had the chance to play KIng's Field before, so this would be an amazing chance to play this classic! Much love and appreciation for the developers! <3

One issue seems to be the fish aggression on the shore. Unless of course if the more aggressive fish was made by design. The fish literally jump out of the water on the shoreline and squirm around when attempting to reach the player. This may be a result of the overall more aggressive monsters nature this remake has over the original design.

This looks excellent! The right kind of remake, looking forward to seeing more if you manage to find a way

I've played KFII on PS at day one and loved it instantly. Your remake feels exactly like the original and plays even better. Outstanding work, thanks so much for this! Is there a possibility that this will be on macOS one day? ;D

I want to download and play this, but want to know one thing, as this is a demo, will it be completed to a full game?

Honestly, I think I would really like to see your own original game with the work you did here. It would be amazing, since you clearly have a passion for what From did with dungeon crawling years past.

This is absolutely incredible. It looks good while keeping a good part of the original game intact. And it proves that King's Field can play faster while maintaining its identity and still feel like KF.

I do feel like some of the enemies are way more agressive than they needed to be, even considering that now we have all the turn speed we wish. 

Nothing that can't be tweaked, anyways.

I like all the little things you added to make the game more interesting. Can't wait to see what you may end up making for the rest of the game! ^^

LOVED IT!!! Awesome job bringing KF2 into the modern era. Would absolutely love to see the work continue. Congrats on the success!!!

love it but i cannot save...any help...i found the savespot and it tells me that it saves...but it doesnt work...thanks...

This is so absolutely amazing, I've been hoping for a remake like this ever since i found the original and (no offense) its terrible controls lol. I wanna see this remake in full now and I hope it all goes well for this dev <3

Extremely cool project, I love all the new animations! Really hope you continue to work on it, or make something new in the style of King's Field. Not nearly enough dungeon crawlers in this style out there.

Cannot thank you enough for this project. Simply amazing work. There is a magic in this game that not many seek out or give a chance to fully enjoy. Hopefully your project changes that.

I was so sad the game ended and yet I enjoyed it so much. I haven't had this much fun in a long time, even for a full game. I really hope this gets finished at some point. Good luck to all your endeavours, whether this one or another. 

thx for these piece of memory. Same feeling as the original.

What about King's Field 1? :)

An excellent and very faithful remake of King's Field 2, looking forward to playing the completed version!

Very good demo but i would like to see Lumen, i believe raytracing GI and Reflections can look good regardless what it is in, especially if it replaces the god awful SSAO or i guess in Ue5 it's DFAO with SSAO? Either way, i think you should try experimenting with HW Lumen, software lumen is just   useless and defeats the very purpose of Ray tracing
