Indivisible: Valkyrie Profile/Metroid, Indiegogo, PC/Mac/Linux/PS4/XB1 -- funded!

LOVE THIS!

Love the main character, love the art style, love the design!

When I get paid you can bet I'm putting in $250 into this!
 
This has been kind of bugging me.

So, this might be me not understanding how swords and scabbards work, but can Toko actually pull the sword out of her cross scabbard reliably if this was a real situation? I might be overthinking or underthinking this, but if the sword is reliably long then how can she pull it out of the cross? Her arm width would have to be pretty big to get it out reliably and for it to not be cumbersome. A regular sword scabbard is bendable to a degree to allow some room for pulling it out I would assume. A katana is curved so it makes sense to pull it out anyway.

I don't know why I'm hung up on this, but it bothers me every time I see the character design. This could all be solved if the sword is tinier than I expect at least.

she holds the scabbard with her feet then sucks out the sword
 
I really don't like how IGG takes immediate payment. Can't tap untill payday (which, thankfuly is Tomorrow) but god I can put a good half of this game's funding issues on IGG.

It's like the Chinatown knock-off of Crowd Funding,

To be fair it probably does stop some of the troll contributions you see on kickstarter.
 
I hope the guest characters have their leitmotifs in some fashion. Maybe when they first appear, even if it's only a 15 second clip. Honestly I just want to hear Hiroki Kikuta's take on Strike The Earth.
 
That's what happened with Shenmue I think, someone grabbed of the highest kickstarters with one available and dropped out last minute.


Wasn't that someone on GAF? I thought I remember someone posting that they accidentally grabbed the $10k jacket, and ended up removing the pledge shortly thereafter.

Has happened with other Kickstarter. Dimension Drive had only 30 minutes left when a troll pulled his €7k pledge, causing the campaign to fail. Thankfully, their second KS was successful

It was really messed up because the devs had been livestreaming their reaction and were so happy to finally reach their goal

That's highly improbable

Kickstarter Terms of Service said:
You can change or cancel your pledge at any time before the project’s funding deadline (with one exception).

You can increase, decrease, or cancel your pledge at any time during the campaign, with one exception. During the last 24 hours of the campaign, you can’t decrease or cancel your pledge without contacting customer support first — if that action would drop the project below its funding goal. Once the project has been funded, you can only cancel or change your pledge by making special arrangements directly with the creator.

I very much want to do this, but it might need to be part of the "More Music" stretch goal.
 
Given that most Henshin superheroes involve the main protagonist suffering from a great tragedy (usually losing a love one in the hands of a force of evil), but will take a powerful artifact/piece of technology to become an agent of justice, I'm curious to see how the guys at Lab Zero Games will take this character & will subvert some of the tropes that are given in the genre. Obviously, this guy is heavily based off of the protagonists of the Kamen Rider & Ultraman series, but I would actually like it that this guy isn't all that he seems to be.

He looks really Garo/Kamen Rider Beast-y I noticed.
 
I'll be putting down another 30 next time I get paid, that's not a lot I know, but every little bit helps and all that. Admittedly I am a bit worried by just HOW MUCH the campaign slowed down after hitting a million. I figured some of that was inevitable, but that it'd pick back up after a few days.

Hopefully that still happens, because while the bulk of funding will come in the final ten days, they closer they are to reaching the goal before that point the less hairy it'll be.
 
Again, some slowdown after getting the extension was inevitable. So I'm not panicked or anything like that. The degree of slowdown is just a bit more marked then I expected. Hopefully it picks back up again soon.
 
Probably doesn't help that people are eyeing Black Friday sales as well. Going to be a juggling act to balance what I want to pick up on BF with upping my pledge a bit.
 
I must say, following this campaign is a lot more stressful than following Bloodstained's was. <_< Hopefully, after Indivisible is released, it will push Lab Zero to IGA-like status and then their next crowdfunding effort will meet its goal on day 1. :)
 
really didnt think this was happening because of how slowly it got to 500k.

but i think at this point its guaranteed to reach its goal. indiegogo charges at the time of pledge and the creator i think gets the funds immediately.

so indiegogo would lose such a large amount of money if they had to refund all these charges and messy as hell so they'll probably keep extending the deadline if they have to.

No, this is the only extension they get. The funding will pick up in the final few days

Funding's stalled. *hits the media exposure emergency button*
The Thunderclap will reach 400,000+ people. That should help
 
I'm not worried about the game reaching it's goal, but I am a little bummed that it might not reach many, if any, stretch goals. A lot of Skullgirls' were really cool and I'd hate to see a ton of rad ideas not be implemented.

Indiegogo has a feature called InDemand, which is basically a formalized "slacker backer" system.

So while it doesn't seem likely we'll get many stretch goals during the length of the campaign, we can try to fund those with the post-campaign period.

That was to be expected once the 20 day extension happened. Hopefully it picks you in the final week as most funding campaigns make most of their money then. However, it kinda already went through a final week phase already so not sure what the precedent is for a second final week surge.

Is there any time limit to the InDemand system?

You mentioned before that stretch goals would not change the game itself but build upon them, so that you can first finish the game as planned within the time announced, and everything else would come afterward. Doesn't that basically mean InDemand could theoretically run until the core game goes gold?

No, there is no time limit for InDemand.

We'll probably keep most of the current tiers the same for a bit, and then drop down to digital only tiers.

And even the stuff that is mostly outsourced still will require some additional work from us, so we can't go right up to the game's ship date like that. But we could probably do it for 12-15 months and be fine.

With regards to hiring freelancers for additional clean-up and animation duties, will you have a clean-up test for potential candidates to work and submit, sort of similar to the one that you guys did for the Skullgirls DLC Characters? Any additional job positions (BG, Character Rotations, etc?), as well?
 
Only 10k left for another incarnation. Can't wait for some steam punk or golfing madness.

Getting Indivisible alone is a huge win on it's own. That alongside their new publishing arrangement with 505 games is pretty much a dream come true compared to SG's situation.

If we need to hire more clean-up contractors, it'll be a similar process to before.

Not sure if they're going to do this right away. But whenever it happens, we'll announce it on Twitter and Facebook, etc.
 
Looks like it slowed down a ton since the extension. Going to need a big last minute push to hit the goal.

Yeah, which was expected. Maybe not quite to this extent, though.

Looks like we may have another big crossover happening before the end of the campaign, and we're going to put the prototype on Steam to make it even easier for everyone to get.

I love how hard you guys have been hustling on this campaign. Every single avenue you can grind out you take, and it's pretty heartening to see.

Thanks for all your hard work. You guys are fantastic and deserve to be able to make this game!

Please be Red (or Shantae or Volgarr or...)

So many good potential crossovers

Good luck to you guys. You've made it this far. You guys are really fighting, so it's gonna happen.
 
Top five crossover wants:

Shantae
Red from Transistor
Lea from CrossCode
