Well, we've decided to contact Rare to see if they'll grant us the use of the 'Atic Atac' name.
If they do, then, Aces! If not and want all Rare/Ultimate Play The Game/Atic Atac references removed, then, we'll do that - there's not much - and continue with the game under a new suitably terrible punned title.

Well, the incredibly nice people at Rare have given us their blessing to carry on, which is pretty aces! The only condition is we cannot use the title “Atic Atac” as they don’t want it to be confused as an official Rare game.

So, no changes to the gameplay, content and graphics required other than coming up with a ridiculously badly punned title.

That's awesome (and quite unexpected)!

That's good news! Keep up the marvellous work you're doing.

Well... what about Atac Atic?

Great news; pleasantly surprised.

I'm afraid this one is already half taken.

Crypt Clash?
Fright Fight?
Spooky Scuffle?

Rorth, certainly the most fearsome monster in Atic Atac.

Spoiler

Got it. You can have this for nothing:

Bedroom Bellicosity.

(You could go with Bedroom Bellicosity 3D, but it loses some of its power.)

Attack the Attic
At It In The Attic
Attic Escape

Humerous pic linking to Bela Lugosi as Frankenstein deleted by admin. It contained gratuitous jugs.

Bit unsuitable for this board... Some of us are at work.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused in your workplace. I hope you drew the spoiler curtain in time

[mention]redballoon[/mention], have you considered using the unused Knight Lore graphics Tim Stamper put on Twitter, eg:





Or are you sticking strictly to the Atic Atac designs?

We have references to most of the Ultimate games and we’re not just sticking to Atic Atac. In fact, here’s a sneaky peek at just 2 of the wall mounts I’ve created for the game.

There’s going to be 6 of these minimum along with various portraits.

Those unused Knight Lore graphics are aces, but we won’t be using them - only original new graphics only.

Loft Incursion

I always thought “Wizard’s Lair” would be a good name for this sort of game.

Atic A Trap
Freak Atack
Attic Autarchs
Tayip Ataturk

I have actually been considering getting a loft conversion. If I found a joiner called Attic Attack, or something like that, I'd sign them up in a second.
