Abandonia is pleased to present its new sister site: Abandonia: Reloaded.

AR has been in production since January. The site is dedicated to freeware, retro remakes, and the independent game development community that makes these games possible.

Please feel free to explore the site, we have game information and downloads, company and producer information, as well as interviews available for your perusal.

The staff of AR currently consists of six dedicated people:

Administrators:

Kosta - Owner & developer
Maikel - Designer & developer
Tom Henrik  - Content manager & public relations
Taikara - Content manager & public relations

Content Updaters:

Kon-Tiki - Production community scout & game updater
Stroggy - Interviewer & part time reviewer

Not to be overlooked, the current administration team over at Abandonia also should be thanked for their support and assistance throughout the entire project.

We have all contributed in various ways to the site's development, and we deeply hope you enjoy the fruits of our labor.

Just thought I'd grab the first new post in here by an average Joe Member, and say "looks amazing - nice one guys!"

The old site'll remain. Abandonia'll focus on abandonware, while Reloaded'll focus on freeware. That's why we refused any freeware games to Abandonia :)

I have so many questions like  will this site also offer translations?
*Now I know the reason why some translations weren't available :)*

I'm happy to do grammar bustin' if any needs doing still, too.

you don't seem to have the custom pictures for "Admin" and so on under the avatars either - are new ones in the works?

EDIT: What else are you planning on putting in the games' threads?

There're no translations planned. The main focus'll be on the information and games provided. Imagine having to translate all the company profiles, reviews, Things To Watch posts, news posts and developer pages :)
