I believe you all played “Little Friends 2” (LF2) when you were a child. Many people also know that this popular game was jointly developed by two Hong Kong people. However, apart from the announcement of the release of NFT, there have been no major updates. Earlier today, Marti Wong (Little Bear), one of the developers of LF2, updated his personal status on his personal Facebook page, saying that he is “still alive” and continues to renovate LF2.
Marti Wong said on Facebook that the progress of the LF2 renovation has stalled due to family issues that have affected her mood in the past two years. In addition, he originally planned to use Unity (C#) to renovate LF2. However, after about 70% of the stand-alone version was completed, Marti Wong decided to switch to JavaScript due to technology and future potential, so he needed to write a new version of LF2 from scratch. program.
Marti Wong said that he could not hire an artist to renovate the action scenes of all the characters, so he had to do it himself. However, Marti Wong pointed out that he was no longer young, so the progress was slightly slower, but he emphasized that the LF2 renovation project was progressing every day.

Marti Wong stated that he plans to release the new LF2 on Steam before Christmas this year, but he also “wears a helmet” at the same time, saying that the development work may be delayed, so there is a chance that the new LF2 will not be released until the Lunar New Year of the following year or later. Marti Wong continues to update her social media and Patreon pages.
