Peter Molyneux's 'FeedMe' is a 256-player Populous pet project

After taking a trip back through the development of his first game, Populous, at GDC today, Lionhead's Peter Molyneux revealed that he's actually still working on the game. Programmed by Molyneux in his spare time, "FeedMe" is a 256-player version of the original Commodore Amiga title -- and the audience for his presentation got a rare look at it.

Sounds interesting! I'll definitely give this a go.

Dylantalon14800d ago

so he wants something on the scale of 'MAG'. ill watch to see if people start touting ' innovation' just like kinect was the first device that you could use as a controller by doing gestures

maxcer4799d ago

since when did MAG innovate high player count?

the ps3 must be your first gaming experience

ps - the talon stands for dumbass

Anon19744799d ago

I loved Populous. Loved it. Now, while you're at it, how about resurrecting other Bullfrog titles. Syndicate anyone?

PandemicPrawn04799d ago

I had Populous on the Sega Master System. Played the hell out of it.

RTS has been a fav of mine ever since.

The Meerkat4800d ago

Yes, now your talking Mr Molyneux.

Just don't make it Kinect only.

Apollyn4800d ago (Edited 4800d ago )

jay24800d ago

Cool stuff if it ever come's out, show us Milo and I might buy Kinect.

DiRtY4800d ago

How awesome would a Xbox Live indie game from molyneux be? I say go for it!

ElementX4799d ago (Edited 4799d ago )

I doubt it would be considered "indie"

TMNT Arcade: Wrath of the Mutants review - Games Asylum

Games Asylum: "Well, this is neat. As the name suggests, Wrath of the Mutants is the rarest of things – a genuine arcade conversion. With most modern arcade games being ticket redemption machines, this is something seldom seen. In fact, the last arcade conversion we can recall was Raw Thrill’s own Cruis’n’ Blast on Switch back in 2021. This is also based on an older iteration of TMNT, harking back to the series from 2012-2017. It’s essentially breaking franchise continuity (we’ve had two different iterations of the Turtles since) and could even be considered nostalgic for a select few – those who grew up with 2012’s Turtles are probably in their late teens."

It must be frustrating for these devs to see Helldivers 2 absolutely devour their lunch lol

-Oh my God, this game looks like a complete rip-off of Helldivers II!

-At least it gives Xbox players the chance to experience something similar to the PlayStation game!

Jokes aside it does make you wonder why Sony, who owns the IP for both, is continuing with two products when there is such overlap. Should it one day make a new Starship Troopers film or a Helldivers film instead?
