Those new screenshots look great, I especially like how the snowy one looks.

Avocados posted:Have they said much else about combat? I really dont care about it one way or the other. I've enjoyed plenty of similar games that featured no combat, but all I've seen so far are swords and slimes. I think that's all that's been shown so far but I haven't been following super closely. I saw a stream and combat pretty much looked like stabbing the square in front of you with a knife, nothing exciting at the time.

Gamerofthegame posted:Imma go out on a limb here and say he meant the map sprites, but even those have more pixels and are more vibrant. Yeah I agree it's a bit weird, the background stuff is a 3/4 perspective and the sprites look more like a side-on/platformer kinda view. im a girl btw fucked around with this message at 22:53 on May 28, 2014 |

YOURFRIEND posted:I mean you can self publish on Steam. That is the point of Steam. This game would get greenlighted almost immediately. Press is easy to come by with a niche title like this, people who enjoy the subgenre will spread it via word of mouth and you just write up a little blurb and send a demo to every gaming website. All of the websites of games they publish are identical, it's just a template and if you are adept enough to singlehandedly code and do all your art for a game then I imagine making a website can't be that much of a hurdle. Even hiring someone to whip up a less lovely site would cost less than 10% of your sales. I think it's probably easy to underestimate how difficult that stuff can be. Reviewers are going to pay more attention to a game they are sent by the company that already made a super successful game (Starbound) than some unknown developer. A website might not be a lot of effort compared to coding a game but it's something with no real return that's taking up game coding time. I've been following this game for a really long time and noticed a huge spike in interest after it was linked from the Starbound website. I think you're right and it would have been greenlit without Chucklefish being involved but their involvement has given a huge publicity boost. And really if it ends up making say a million dollars, and I'd be surprised if it doesn't, $900,000 is still a lot of money for one guy for 2-3 years work.

I loaded up my game after the patch and all my quests in my journal are gone (like meet 28 people, build a scarecrow etc) Anyone had the same thing and does it matter? Just wondering if I should start again since I'm only ~7 days in
