Ask any questions you want about the upcoming remake.

1. Will this remix be also in Java? Or it will still stay in Flash, like Chapter 1 and Chapter 2?

2. If this question doesn't bother you, how much time do you think it'll be needed to finish this Remix?

3. How are Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 going to be merged into a remix?

Is this after/before or instead of NS-Release Candidate 3?

We will be working simultaneously on the remix and chapter 3. However, due to the remix being easier, it will be finished some time before chapter 3 is. Both the remix and chapter 3 will use the same engine, which is programmed in Java. I haven't figured out a release date, but I hope the remix will be done in less than a year and chapter 3 will be done in less than 2 years.

The levels from Null Space should work in the remix. Yeah.
Wouldn't know anything about sudden plan changes either.

What kinds/types of suggestions are you looking for in terms of the Remix? I can't think of anything without stretching it.

They are really likely to work. The only things that changed in level interpretation is that a wider range of colors are now supported for color transforms and an improved scripting engine. There might be some slight differences in how either of these are interpreted but it should not be game breaking.

Its mostly ways that we could make the game better in general. Engine suggestions go for both the remake and sequel. The remake is not a direct port; multiple levels are being revised/remade. We're also probably going to tweak the story to fit in better with the sequel's, which up until recently was standalone from ch1+2.

Will this still be an issue after switching to Java for the Remix?

I would be so happy if not.
