<p>One of the big announcements made by Limited Run Games this afternoon was the formation of a subsidiary devoted solely to remastering and reissuing older games for the new market. They’re calling this company “Carbon Engine” and they revealed some pretty big titles to start off with.</p>

One of my all-time favorite games. Even if it's just a port, I'm glad to see an official English release because it means that many more people will discover this series for the first time. I feel it will appeal to a modern horror gaming audience since it was so far ahead of its time. I never thought the day would come... This game is still worth playing today because it played an important role in the creation of the survival horror subgenre.
 
There is a spiritual successor of Clock Tower created by the original maker and its called Night Cry. it was funded in Kickstarter but the final product is sadly lackluster.There are numerous examples of games that received significant financing from Kickstarter thanks to nostalgic appeal yet ended up being subpar or utterly broken. Only Bloodstained comes to mind as an arguably successful game among NightCry, Yooka-Laylee, and Mighty No. 9. Since crowdfunded games and Kickstarter in general were once hailed as the future of independent game production, I'd love to learn more about their rise and collapse. The original Clocktower lacks the technology and budget but it is such a classic,
 
The news about the translation and release of Clock Tower has really caught my attention. I can't believe that such an influential horror game has been unavailable outside of Japan until now. I'm excited to finally experience the original version and immerse myself in its chilling atmosphere.
 
Tomba! is another gem from the past that is getting a well-deserved second chance. I remember playing it on the Playstation 1, and despite its initial lackluster sales, it has gained a dedicated following over the years. It's great to see Limited Run Games stepping in to re-release it
 
Limited Run Games and Carbon Engine seem to have a deep appreciation for gaming history, and I love that they're committed to preserving and reissuing these lost classics. It's refreshing to see older games getting the attention they deserve. I appreciate their efforts in making these games accessible once again, allowing both longtime fans and newcomers to enjoy the magic of these timeless titles.
