I saw this last night, and remembered quite fondly from my childhood playing the old Zoombini games. So with the original makers getting back the rights to Zoombinis I thought I would give them a boost by posting here.
After all many people here would have played these as small children, and may indeed have little ones of their own now.

I also emailed them about how they would release the games and in their reply they said many had already contacted them about GOG being a potential portal, so I am very excited.

WOOHOO!

I'll back the project as soon as I get an answer about DRM-free releases. I'm assuming there will be one, but want to make sure after getting burned on an earlier KS. My sibling and I can quote large chunks of the game. We played loved both Zoombini games we played.

Please post the response here ok? It would be appreciated. I also asked them a question about what language packs will be included, I'll report back if anyone is interested in the answer to that question :-) I forgot many quotes but I still remember some (in German since that was the version I played) from the pizza guys :D

I was at least one. :) Only thing that worries me is if Humongous was rejected in part for being kids' games (which wasn't the main reason at least, iirc), I have doubts as to whether GOG would bring this.

That said, here's the wishlist entry: http://www.gog.com/wishlist/games/logical_journey_of_the_zoombinis

I would hope GOG would look into doing educational games. They are a real thing, can be very good to play and teaching is something games are good at.
Also if parents are here buying for themselves then they could pick up games for their children too and then play them together

Here is the response from the team behind Zoombinis I received before I began this thread.
"
Hi! Thanks for the good wishes. Not sure about the distribution yet to be honest -it's currently our intention to also have a "regular installer," at least for the Kickstarter fulfillment, but we're still in discussions about the range of distribution options for the game in general. We have had a number of people interested in having it available via GOG and will be looking into that. Hope this is helpful.
"

I assume the "regular installer" is meant to be a variation of DRM-free, but we may wish to wait for a little more information.
The final line is why I say they have had many. My assumption is that a few people would have been filled out in an hour, but "a number" took a while to work through.

So if anyone is interested in knowing:
The game will be released with English and Spanish as available languages. All others will perhaps come after a release but they are not sure about it, depends if they can find international partners.

I never heard of this game, I now feel old.

Who am I kidding, I've been feeling old since I hit 25 over 25 years ago.

First computer game I played was a number guessing game on a TI-57 calculator, what the fuck are you doing on my lawn?

Got a response. They said that they were open to DRM-free but were still negotiating with distribution partners. Since several people had mentioned GOG they were going to look into it, but didn't know much about it.

I responded with a brief description of GOG and mentioned that GOG had worked with several KS games and re-released classic games. I'll post again if I hear back.

The bit about negotiating with distribution partners is a bit head-scratching. Are they trying to do a physical release and need multiple distributors?

Big bump on this. The Steam page is up; when I asked about DRM-free they said the game would be coming to Humble soon (they said Bundle but I assume they mean the Humble Store):

I assume GOG simply rejected it, which obviously I think is bad form (and kind of encourages the generation to not think outside of Steam) but I won't bang on about it.

Too bad they could not get other languages. I'll stick with my old CD original.

Voted! I just noticed it on Steam, it looks pretty true to the original. After revisiting the Humongous Entertainment games, I could go for some more nostalgia.

I received an email from the developers saying that their publishers are in talks with Humble and GOG about the possibility of releasing DRM-free versions.

So fingers crossed.

Silly boneheaded GOG. Ever since they've gone on this rejection spree, my Steam library has risen to about match my GOG library in terms of size.

I mean sure bundles are part of that, but this kind of crap really does a great job turning me away.

Edit for autocorrect bungling.
