Umineko when they cry studio update#
On the afternoon of the 14th, within only hours of their would-be launch, Catbox announced that they’d have to delay the Kickstarter once again due to “a health emergency affecting an essential member of our launch team.” Fans were, for the most part, respectful of the sudden and unexpected nature of the medical emergency, sent their best wishes to Catbox (who thanked everyone with a gif of a lipless Beato), and awaited more news.Ī month would pass before the next major update was posted it stated that Emily was the one with the emergency, that she had recovered, and that, “we are done leaving anything up to chance. An official AMA was hosted on the 11th, and the week seemed to pass smoothly until the 14th-the all important day of the Kickstarter’s launch. The Kickstarter was originally supposed to launch on November 7th, but on November 4th, Catbox Creative announced that, “Due to the overwhelmingly positive response to the #UminekoGold Kickstarter announcement, we’ve been in touch with & and the decision has been passed down to delay our campaign until 11/14/18, in order to bring you even more exciting new content!”įor many fans, waiting an extra week felt like a small price to pay for such a polished release of the beloved visual novel, so while some people were certainly a little disappointed, hardly anyone seemed especially outraged by this announcement.


The announcement-which was met with a staggering amount of excitement and memes about Beato’s dubious new set of lips-came with an English cover of the opening theme to Umineko’s anime by AmaLee, and a link to their website with all the details. As of when this is being written, it’s been almost three years since the Umineko Gold project was announced, and fans are still waiting for that day.Īfter more than two years of work, Umineko Gold was announced to the public on Novemvia Twitter and Facebook. Needless to say, fans were thrilled at these prospects and couldn’t wait for the day its Kickstarter campaign would go live.
Umineko when they cry studio full#
Umineko Gold‘s website promises full voice acting (which could also be listened to as an audiobook), a graphics update, and new content directly from series creator Ryukishi07. It was set to be funded via a Kickstarter campaign by a team lead by Emily Fajardo called Catbox Creative, in collaboration with 07th Expansion, MangaGamer, and Witch Hunt. Umineko Gold is (was?), at its core, a more definitive release of the cult classic visual novel Umineko When They Cry. Such is the basis for the famous thought experiment called Schrödinger’s Cat, and the current state of a Kickstarter project called Umineko Gold. If a cat’s in a box and you don’t know whether it’s alive or dead, then until you open the box and see it for yourself, it can be argued that the cat is both alive and dead.
