Cosette uses Valjean as her Stand. Javert literally drops Stars on people as a special. The generic police officer can do a shun goku satsu. Enjolras drops The Barricade on people, Marius attacks with his dead skeletonified friends. The Thernardiers are a puppet character. There's a Robo-Valjean. This is amazing.

It's a French game so that's equipped by default.

Thank you for all the comments, and I apologize for not replying earlier.

To all the comments about the screenshots, I'd like to remind you that Thermidor is in early development! We are working hard on the most important aspects of the game, which include the game play and story. Polishing the graphics and fixing (one pixel) alignment problems will be taken care of soon, but is not of our main concern at the moment, but before releasing the game all the material will be sent to the QA department...


Man Whore posted:

Just so you know OP, the uniform of French soldiers at the time was white.

Those are not French soldiers! But rather the king's guards, which were actually Swiss.


Thermidor is not exactly a historical game. It takes place in France at the beginning of the French Revolution, and there will be some depictions of historical figures and landscapes, and perhaps some connections to historical events, but it will largely be fiction. Though there will be no "lobster men" or anything related to lobsters for that matter, but if you back this game generously, we might invite you to dinner with us, and lobster will definitely be an option (:

I don't know why this post was stickied, but I am grateful for that.
We are very passionate about creating and finishing Thermidor, and we want this game to be enjoyed by many people all over the world.
So your support is important to us, and just by sharing/commenting etc', you are helping the cause!
So making this post sticky is VERY MUCH APPRECIATED. A big Thank you to the mod!
My name is Ron J. Ward, and I'm the composer and sound designer for Thermidor (:

That was INSANE! guillotiiiiiiiiiiiiiine!
But seriously, there will be no guillotines in the game...
The game takes place in the year 1789, and they haven't been used yet (as far as I know).
the guillotines were largely used during the "period of terror" from 1793~94.


lalaland posted:

There might be. But we are definitely looking in to implementing the dark underworld of the Paris Catacombs.



tote up a bags posted:

OP DO YOU HAVE PLANS TO DO DLC BECause I love rpgs and want one about feudal Japan to be made

There are no plans for DLCs at the moment. The released game will be fully playable with no crappy IAP or whatnot. To quote our CEO - "games should be play to win, not pay to win".
But it is possible that in the future we will provide extra missions/quests. This entirely depends on the success of the game.


Baller Time posted:

What political and sociological messages are you planning to incorporate in the story?

Love, peace and equality.
No matter where you are from, how rich or poor you are, we all live in the same world.
Also, we are not trying to take any sides in this historical era. There was good and evil on both sides...


That's it!
Thanks again for all the comments (even the silly ones).
I will be here for a few more hours, and then checking this thread again on Monday. So feel free to ask/comment as much as you like!
You can also contact us on our website , or on all the social networks mentioned in my last comment.
