Impractical practicality
Hyperdevbox I am ready to buy Thermidor! Where are the comprehensive gameplay screenshots and videos this thread has promised?! How dare you be dishonest with your customers. This is simply unacceptable! :mad:

note: 4 screenshots do not count. There should be at least 50 screenshots showing real gameplay also video.

As a political schemer, Tallyrand was 10 X more awesome, and was alive at the time. In fact, he was in America being best buds with one Alexander Hamilton. The two of them should team up with Lafayette for a gimmick OP characters clowning on goons fight.

No joke, that would be super cool. Seeing crazy anime superhero versions of historical figures never seems to cease entertaining. King Louis XIV might be dead by the time Thermidor happens, but if his ghost shows.up as a boss fight I hope he can attack with blinding solar rays. Or maybe a gimmick fight where applying a Blind state to the party makes fighting the Sun King easier.

EA GAMES' MASTERPIECE 'MADDEN 2018 G.O.A.T. EDITION' IS A GLORIOUS TRIUMPH OF ART AND TECHNOLOGY. IT BRINGS GAMEDAY RIGHT TO THE PLAYER AND WHOEVER SAYS OTHERWISE CAN, YOU GUESSED IT...
SUCK THE SHIT STRAIGHT OUT OF MY OWN ASSHOLE.

BUY IT.
Will this game have a crafting system?

Could I craft a descending blade, say, attached to some kind of upright poles?

I have a question! Your game is titled Thermidor 1789: The Beginning. What is this the beginning of? Do you intend to make a series of Thermidor titles?

Suggestion: consider banking off of pokemon's popular strategy of making two versions of your game with subtle differences to trade between friends. Would encourage putting different models/designs of guillotines in the game that you could trade between friends.

Mo-Mo's, I hate to bring this up but the thread title is still incorrect. I believe this game is title Humidor JRPG - Gameplay Screenshots. Thermidor is a lobster dish to my knowledge, whereas a Humidor is a box and this game may come in a box, but certainly not a lobster.

If you are creative you could use a lobster shell as a box.

As most likely the only person on the team able to read code you could probably sneak in some guillotines into the game that could be enabled with a highly controversial console command.

The code should be to type in 'Hot Coffee' (Coffee being a euphemism for execution via guillotine in revolutionary-era France)

Seriously, though, you do need to think a little about the proportions and attire on your character who is supposed to be a very good fencer. I appreciate that she's wearing a top with sleeves that let her move her arms freely - but nobody, nobody is going to win a fight wearing dress pants that are so skinny, you just can't move wearing poo poo like that. I'm not saying she needs to be wearing military fatigues and have chun-li style thunder thighs, but anyone who fences even at a local club level is going to have bigger legs than her current artwork. Maybe some breeches and thick socks would be better, as is standard attire for even modern fencers?
For reference, here's a picture of one of the glorious French sabre team (Charlotte Lembach) attempting to take the arm off a Russian.

So after getting my hands on the most recent pre-alpha release (0.72d I believe?) I can say to everyone who is hoping for guillotines will SPOILERS-> not be disappointed ;-) <-SPOILERS

Also, I'd appreciate a heads up on when the NDA is going to be lifted, so I don't have to resort to vague allusions when talking to my gamer friends about Thermidor.

So far there has only been a booster to the main character's bishiness stat by 300% for 12 hours, but I think it's very reasonably priced at $3.99, so I wouldn't worry too much.

They need to fix the frame rate, but the guillotine assembly minigame is amazing allowing for on the fly decapitation customization.

Correct, but the differences to Thermidor are so small that it may as well be an accurate representation. Doesn't excuse the inaccuracy though.
