The project I have been working on has just been announced. TY the Tasmanian Tiger is making a return after his ten year anniversary, coming to Windows 8 and published by Microsoft Studios, powered by MonoGame.

Fantastic news Steve!

Hoping to post this when the Americans wake up. And hopefully in the future a postmortem, if you decide to take it to other platforms.

That looks absolutely fantastic! Nice!
Out of interest, if you don't mind saying, how much resource did that take to produce? (i.e. number of people and time)?

3 programmers (2 full time, 1 part time)
2 texture artists
Animator
2 level designers
Sound/music engineer
Producer (also did some code and level design)
Tools programmer (in-house 2D skinned animated sprite editor and level builder)

We've been working on it full time since June 2012.

@Tom, I had forgotten to switch the news item markup from Filtered HTML to Full HTML. Should be displaying now.

I know we're supposed to finish it in the next month or so. As for release date, I have no idea. Likely to be mid-year.
