[Tyranicon]

The last hurdle has been cleared and we are a go for launch:

im dying to know what prompt led to that video of woman with whiskey and revolver

found this instead

what's the price point anyway

what's the price point anyway

9 USD and standard steam setting for other currencies. Same price on itch and any other storefront. It will probably change at the end of Early Access since i think it will have more content than what 9 bucks is worth. That will be TBD.

There is a warning about the game not being tested for Steam Deck so you might be running into some shit, but it should be playable... maybe. I need to buy a steamdeck soon so i can do actual testing.

as long as it emulates well under Proton and text remains legible it's alright
Steam Deck can mimic mouse input and a modest number of keyboard shortcuts comfortably
it obviously fares best under the regular ass Xbone controller input scheme

Hi everyone! Since the game is coming out very soon, I thought I’d throw up a short roadmap so you would know what the development process looks like for this game.

Like I promised during the crowdfunding phase, the development period for BSI will be hyper fast. In fact, I anticipate it taking no more than 4-5 months after the Early Access launch. This is mostly due to the fact that BSI is a shorter game, and because I am now a more experienced gamedev (hopefully).

That doesn’t mean BSI isn’t important. No, instead I think it will be one of the most important games in my ongoing series. Since its inception, BSI has gone from a joke game to something I’ve been looking forward to very much: it will explain much of the cosmology behind the series.

Here, we’ll explore the epic, cosmic lore that never could find a home in my (slightly) more grounded games.

But first, some dates and predictions:

April - The Dwarves


The second Wilds area, including new Dwarven-themed enemies and a boss. Also, some additional equipment and items. More fleshed-out skill-trees.

May - The Elves


The third Wilds area, including new Elven-themed enemies and a boss.

June - New Game+ and the Final Area, preparation for 1.0

Allows for the standard ending and New Game+ mode, which unlocks the fourth Wilds area with a mystery theme and boss. Preparing for 1.0 launch.

July - Backer content


Includes all backer and stretch goals content from the crowdfunding!

Tell us more about the dwarves and the elves.

Normally they're so stereotipically portrayed that I wonder if a parody made by you will turn that dial to 11 or subvert it.

It's probably best if you play the game if you're interested. There's not too much to say, there's some jokes and there's some lore about the races (that exist in the setting outside of the isekai).

Come to think of it, I guess I am solidifying myself as a lore-based porn dev. Weird, but whatever, it's what I enjoy.

Oh, also, game is released on Steam and Itch.io.

nigga didn't lie that the game gonna be crude
impressively ugly UI my dude

RPGmaker games will probably always have bad UI, there's too much hard-coding to work around that even people who work with it professionally (omori, fear&hunger) gave up on trying to make it better.

The ugly is probably my fault though.

 

[Maxie]

well im gonna whinge more when i put a few hours into it

I purchased your new game, but will wait for full release until playing. I like to let others beta-test games I'm interested in

No GOG?
They got big on porn games lately.

Like Tyranicon, GOG noticed that cartoon tits generate money from lonely nerds.

I wonder if they'll eventually announce their new niche: Good One-handed Games.

Maybe eventually this game will go on GOG like Memoirs, but that's something I have to talk to one of my business partners about.

Which one, The yakuza or the mafia?

Not... the Shadow League of Sicilian mothers!?

 

[Tyranicon]

So, I've got some minor drama brewing as someone is trying to cancel me on steam because they're on an anti-AI crusade, accused me of doing a bunch of stuff I didn't do, and is now deleting a bunch of comments pointing out that they're wrong. Now they're getting chewed out by steam users for censoring the review thread.

Lol. The life of a gamedev is never boring.

Don't see how the vor v zakone is better, but whatever, as long as your appendages are intact.
