Remakes of both this game and ''Presentable Liberty'' were [[https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1623766744/presentable-liberty-and-exoptable-money-remakes announced]] on Kickstarter, but it failed to reach its goal, as did a [[https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1623766744/presentable-libery-and-exoptable-money-remakes second]] and [[https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1623766744/presentable-liberty-and-exoptable-money-menagerie third]] attempt. Sadly, the games will never be remade as the creator, Robert Brock (aka Wertpol), committed suicide sometime in early 2018.
