Agreed, but I would play the hell out of another dozen unique games in the same style. Heart Machine was onto something here.

Same for me, this game made had some impact on me and made look into game development. I have not created anything but the ideas started to flow.

Adding that to my personal professional experience have showed me that you need to have some ambition but be grounded in reality, fund your next game without expending the budget limit and such.

But, I think a spinoff or side story would be better than a direct sequel.

PS. I also recommend no reading or viewing the video about the history of the original developer.

Yup. That's sort of my point.
