Okay this looks awesome. I'm really intrigued by the combat system.

Looks very cool, just not a big fan of character models. Nice trailer!

Lee3dee · Jun 2012

I had a lot of fun working on this

doing the FX and tech art.

GabrielP · Jun 2012

If this works the way the trailer makes it look, I'm buying a connect.

OpethRockr55 · Jun 2012

As a super big fan of kung-fu new and old, I approve heartily.

AtlusZMH · Jun 2012

Glad to see a thread here on this! I helped out with this trailer, the game looks like its going to be awesome!

Phenom · Jun 2012

Looks great! Love the temple entrance scene.

sebas · Aug 2012

Hi again

I got permission to show off my work on this: the director and the male crew. Hope you can appreciate the effort...

Quickel · Aug 2012

Yeah the temple entrance is looking great. The combat seems like it could be really interesting. It looks like there's a pretty big disparity between the art quality and style though which is a bit of a turnoff to me.

sebas · Aug 2012

Thanks for your feedback Quickel! We're in a very early state constantly refining all visual and technical aspects of the game.

By the way, Kung Fu Superstar is a finalist in the "Gift a Rift!" contest ran by Oculus3D! If you want to help us make Kung Fu Superstar supports Rift, just click the link and vote for us: Kinesthetic Games. Thank you!

UltraLrod · Aug 2012

Wow. I just watched the trailer and was it good. I'm super curious as to how this will work. Is it in first person? Do you control every action as the player or are they automatically control in-game?

sebas · Aug 2012

Hi UltraLrod, thanks for your interest and the questions!

About the gameplay, more details will be released very soon

I recommend the interview at GameSpot... 'Kung Fu Superstar: Martial Arts for the Masses'

Hey Polycounters, Kung Fu Superstar is on Kickstarter!

Well, almost 3 days left...

and sadly the course of the campaign is not working as expected. Unfortunately the project won't be continued if there's an unsuccesful Kickstarter, due to financial reasons.

Honestly, I feel this is really unfair for Kostas an his team. I collaborated in the announcement trailer for only a few months, however I know these guys took it like a full-time adventure for around one whole year. I can't imagine how many hours spent, so much love put into it...

Here supposing that launching from the UK and being that innovative shaped a big handicap, also obviously there's a lot of blind Kinect skeptics and inevitably it's probably suffering a so called Kinect 'karma'.
But unlike others, this game truly would give an interesting and fun playable experience, getting the most of the device. Also this can be played with controllers, mouse and keyboard, or even Rift's Occulus. Seriously, this game really deserves to be funded, and whatever will happend, I will still think this is a good product.

Then, it's kind of a 'now or never' situation. There's always hope, no sense to throw the towel without being swept...
... but, where's the love for this project?
