Woo!
Indivisible: Valkyrie Profile/Metroid, Indiegogo, PC/Mac/Linux/PS4/XB1 -- funded!
- Thread starter HadesGigas
- Start date
Woo!
Is there really no BackerKit page one could link to that shows the total in real time or regularly updating automatically?
As far as I know, the only one is the one on my dashboard, but I'll ask.
Excellent, I really hope we hit that one.
Great news!
How's writing on the game going? Have you folks nailed down a complete draft of the scenario yet? Is there concept art and image boards for the major story beats? Are we going to see major scenes in the story animated out of context for the OP?
Scenario has been completely outlined, story beats planned, and what scenes we expect will be illustrated, in-game / talking heads, or a mixture of the two.
Some rough concepting / storyboarding has happened to for the illustrated story bits, but nothing official, since we'd want to time dialog around that, which hasn't been written yet.
And there will be some short anime bits in the story, but it's not a prominent thing.

Will this game get a physical copy for the Xbox One and PS4?
Yes.
There will be a retail version released in stores, and the campaign-exclusive limited edition version.
If you're interested in the LE, it's in the $60 tier and above, except the all-digital $75 tier.

So the limited edition is only for people who pledged? If that's the case how long will pledging be available because I wouldn't mind doing it but have to wait until next month.
Correct - LE is for backers only.
You get a digital code with it, too, if you want to keep your game sealed, BTW.
And currently we're planning on leaving the campaign open until the end of 2017, so you have plenty of time!

made my selections earlier today. Might up my pledge sometime next year. Will have to see.

We're interested in doing it, but need more specifics on the hardware to know if we can make it work, hit the same schedule, etc.
Also, ultimately it's up to 505 and their faith in the system.
Huh? Are we talking in-engine scenes with unique character animations for story scenes, or actual animated movies? o_0
In-engine with some unique character animations.
We're contracting three minutes from Trigger total, and not all of it is for the opening, just the vast majority of it.

Shoot. I might have to get in on this too.
Mmmmm I love stuff like that. It's really underrated, but people tend to talk a lot about FMVs from the PS1/Saturn era, but what I really liked best were how much more unique sprite animations there were for in-game cutscenes RPGs with 2D characters.

Like what? I'm trying to imagine what you mean.
I mean, don't expect too much in the way of unique animations - they're really expensive, so we need to use them sparingly.
Most games from that era, though, barely use any unique animations. I'd imagine we'll have more than that, but we have to be careful or it could easily overrun the animation budget.
RPGs which use 2D sprites tend to have fixed animation sets for walking/running/attacks/etc which could be reused over and over depending of the situation of a scene or in battles. Once in a while, usually earlier on in the game or in important scenes mid-game or towards the end, some games would have totally unique one off animations for some characters to make a scene more memorable. Or to express something that the standard animation set simply can't. It could be characters kissing, or special combat animations for a non-playable fight, or someone dancing, etc.
Here's a modern example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=deElUDotm5g
More than the 16-bit era and with more detail though! That's my point.

Yeah, just making sure your expectations are in line with what's feasible.
A little can go a long way with that, when done right.
That clears up some confusion.
In that case, which would your recommend: PC or PS4 for collecting the Physical Edition?
I would generally say that I think that if collectability is what you're going for, a console release is probably going to hold it's value more, based on how the Limited Run Games stuff goes.
Console players tend to be collectors more than the modern PC gamer, I think.
Some amusing quotes I pulled out of the thread from days past. Not that Studio Trigger wasn't a common guess (it was probably the most common guess) but it is interesting how things work out. It only took a year for confirmation LOL

Wait I'm getting a le edition? I did the 60 bucks. Awesome.
What a channel, jeez.
Also, the Indivisible dynamic theme is really killing my game time. I'm spending like at least 30% more time just staying on the home screen, yearning for '90s JRPGs.
And a digital one, to boot. The 60$ tier is crazy value.

Shit I already did my BackerKit survey for the all digital. Can I change it still?
You can change until the end of 2017, I think.
Yeah, you can freely change everything until we close it down at the end of 2017.
Yes.

So is this the same as the limited edition in the backerkit survey? Or do I need to change my pledge?

That's the only physical version backers are getting. If you're getting a physical version from this campaign, you're getting the Collector's Edition.

Ahhh digital code means I might back at that tier. Can you get a physical on one platform and digital on another?
So is there no harm in fulling out the survey now then? I haven't, which should be fine, except I've received a new damn email almost every day about "URGENT REMINDER" since I got the first one.
Ideally I'd like to raise my pledge when funds allow, which is why I was holding off to begin with.
EDIT: Answered with a post later, ok then.

Yup. Indeed, that's what I'm doing (a Steam digital code and a physical PS4 copy, since a Steam physical copy has zero practical use).
I initially chose the ask digital version. Then added the limited physical edition from the backer kit survey just went out. So I'm good?
Thanks to DelusiBeta and others for handling some frequently asked questions for me!
Thanks so much again, dude.
Yeah, I'm actually going to see if it's possible to tone down the URGENT REMINDER e-mail stuff, because while it is helpful if people fill it out sooner, it's not at all urgent right now.

Indeed, had to laughs about that while reading you repeat here that we'll have time until end of next year. =)
Btw. I guess you're now getting the number what platforms are popular among the backers for digital and physical. Will you share some break down stats about that sometime? Thanks!
PM me your e-mail and I'll check up on it.

I've recently completed Shantae: Risky's Revenge and Pirate's Curse in anticipation for eventually getting Half-Genie Hero. They're rather cute, fun titles! My experience hair-whipping through them makes me more excited for seeing which details will compose her crossover in Indivisible as well.
On another note, I didn't know Alex Ahad and Mariel Cartwright had credits working on the games. That's pretty cool.

I have the $125 tier which comes with a special t-shirt, IIRC. I want a tapir plush but if I upgrade, I'll lose the special t-shirt, right?
By "I" I really mean "a friend" naturally.

I think not, the 175 tier has the shirt and the plush.
Technically, because BackerKit can't keep track of some of that stuff because of our weird two-tier system.
After you upgrade, please send me a PM with your e-mail address and I'll manually add the shirt back on for you.
