I remember loving this way back in the day. What an amazing labor of love. I hope the original devs can learn how loved their original creation remains.

The Original devs released "War for the Overworld" a few years ago. It's as close to DK as it could without copyright issues

That was the only truly abysmal early access experience I've had. I randomly heard about it, and picked it up in "bedrock beta". Nothing worked. At all. It should have been pre-alpha internal testing only at that point, but they were selling early access.

Never went back to give it another shot. Maybe it evolved into a decent game, but it left a very bad taste in my mouth to advertise early access on a not even working proof of concept level of work.

I backed it on kickstarter, and played it again recently. It's pretty good now!

I mean, it was way better than what you describe for a LONG time, but it's gone through so many updates now that it's far better than it was even on launch.

Lol. I remember reading about it and being quite scared as a kid. I'll have to face my childhood fears now, I guess.

The leather clad women who liked being tortured made me feel things

Just looking at those screenshots made me nostalgic. I forgot how good the graphics were for that time and the fantastic 1st person mode, really cool.

For me it would awesome if they could achieve porting it to Android, I am not playing that much on PC anymore. But thats my problem obviously.
