Mother4 thumbnail Mother Fangame (no official title yet) RPG Despite it's apparently very controversial name among Mother/Earthbound fans, it looks surprisingly polished and has that Itoi-feel for a freeware fangame. Some info from a website (that should not be named) reveals that the tone is most similar to Mother 1, about as long as Earthbound, rhythm combos from Mother 3 make a return, maps are open similar to Earthbound, no need for grinding (but don't expect to spam boosting moves and being able to steamroll bosses) and dialogue will be devoid of internet memes.

Recent news from the dev team shows they WILL change the game's name and remove every copyrighted reference to Earthbound, so say goodbye to Mr. Saturn.

Project Phoenix Project Phoenix SRPG This is it. A phenomena made possible by crowd-funding. A real time SRPG made by a team of many veterans from both the West and Japan. Early development videos show solid ideas that trod down their own path and refuse to fulfill the checklist of mainstream video game mechanics. Unfortunately, the multiplayer stretchgoal was not met, so bear with that. Its main release platform will be the PC, which is unheard of from a Japanese game like this.

The Kickstarter page basically said this team wanted to break away from the corporate side of studios, which explained why this collaboration was possible in the first place. Oh yeah, and old man Uematsu is still alive and rocking, apparently.
