Relaunch Knockout City with Velan Studios' support
The Issue
Knockout City was not just a game for many of us; it was a community, a hobby, and for some, a competitive pursuit. We lived for the thrill of dodging, catching, and making those epic passes. My friends and I, playing under the clan name 'Throwbocops', shared countless hours navigating our way to the top of the ranks. Every match wasn’t just about winning; it was about strategy, teamwork, and pure unadulterated fun.
However, Velan Studios decided to pull the plug on Knockout City. This decision not only disbanded teams but took away a source of joy and connection for so many. As a vibrant and participative community, we have witnessed the potential and growth the game had. It is truly a gem buried prematurely. Velan Studios needs to come around and see the outpouring of passion, nostalgia, and commitment. At its core, Knockout City was more than just a game – it was the cultural mashup we needed at the time, a competitive fun and creative game to keep friends laughing.
I urge Velan Studios to reconsider its decision. The community is still alive and eager to play. By relaunching the game, perhaps structured as a community-driven project or through periodic updates and events, Velan Studios can breathe new life into this cherished game. Other titles have found success through similar models where players contribute to content development, server hosting costs, or beta testing. We are willing and ready to do what it takes.
Sign this petition to show Velan Studios the power of its committed fan base. Let them see the genuine support that exists and reconsider the decision to keep Knockout City alive. Together, we can revive this virtual world and continue to enjoy the community we've built. Stand with me and the 'Throwbocops' to bring Knockout City back to life!
