WILLY, 48k about a legend

Post by 5MinuteRetro »

Did someone post this on here recently? https://vimeo.com/251482173

Either way, I'm wondering if anyone has more info on it? It doesn't seem to Google well, and I have no idea how I stumbled upon it!

Just bumping this post because I fear my question might've gotten lost under the embedded video... so, does anyone know anything more about this? I have no idea how or where I stumbled upon it, and can't find any more information about it anywhere -- and yet it clearly appears to be a plan to make a thing. (And I'm pretty sure that wherever I found the link suggested as much.)

Heh... and as if my magic I've just this second accidentally stumbled upon the answer! It was flagged on the Replay Events Facebook page.

Here's the relevant bit:

"The game became a definitive title of the era and continues to inspire and intrigue gamers three decades on. At PLAY Expo Manchester, we are delighted to be hosting the UK premier of ‘WILLY: 48K About A Legend’, a beautiful short animated film by Italian director Paolo Santagostino, who will be introducing the screening. You can watch the trailer here - https://vimeo.com/251482173"

...so yeah, could be interesting.
