I'm making a video game where you play as a frog with a keyboard. Your goal is to bash in those stupid "You're dumb for not using a controller" screens at the start of indie games. Think Street Fighter special stages but with a frog and stupid messages.

Which one? 2013, Rice, OG game?

Oh the TR2 Fan remake, will give it a try later thanks.

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
More interesting thing about sonic and LiS that i pointed out in thread i made on Gaming side is that LiS is nto getting negative reviews bombed at all because there wasn't any big news articles about Denuvo for it. People are not even noticing that it has Denuvo. But Sonic is getting tons of negative reviews because Denuvo was mentioned around big news articles.

I want to say part of that was some folks inability to play Sonic offline at launch, but I wasn't really following along so I might be mistaken.
 
Tiny Echo keys are available on the June Humble monthly page if you bought it. No need to send emails to the developers to get them.
 
Dude or dudette needs to hire a translator though.

Also, NTR route?!

Yeah. I dont really get why a lot of Chinese devs/pubs dont at least hire an editor.

Some do, since I actually edited some of the Chinese games on Steam (for free, since I know the dev).

So what are they offering in the guarantee? Their word?

No idea. According to one dev the window for the 'guarantee' was three months, while in other results I've seen it claim licenses cost $100k for a 30 day 'uncrackable' guarantee. However since several high profile games have been cracked closer and closer to release the company seems to have spun it into a 'it could be worse'/'they still received value' angle. Officially they've never issued refunds so who knows what the original promises were.

I'm don't have any words to describe what I feel...

Thank you, from the deepest part of my heart.

This game means a lot to me, and while I have at least three different copies of it, having this update with so much added to it... oh my god... thank you.
I started playing EAW when I was... I don't know... 8yo maybe ? It was something like 2 months after release... The game that introduced me to RTS games, the game that introduced me to modding, the game that made me love the Star Wars Universe... and now the game that makes me love Petroglyph even more than before.

And that, more than TEN FUCKING YEARS after initial release.
You guys are one of the best I know.
Keep up the good work, because you're the perfect example of good work. Many could learn from what you just did.
I mean it.

Thank you <3

:,)

Blergh. I need a new online game to play. Tried playing Overwatch again after a few months of not playing it and realised that it's not actually that good.

Quake Champions is still pretty good if you haven't tried that yet. I'm not sure if you still need a beta key to be able to play the game using the bethesda launcher tho (you could get the game on steam but you need to pay for that right now).

I will probably start playing HOTS again soon. I really want the Dreadlord Jaina skin :)

I'd actually say Agents of Mayhem should be in the bad category. 30K for what is essentially saints row 5 is pretty bad. That's deeps silvers biggest title this year.

Cold Steel numbers are so depressing
I wonder if Cold Steel II will end up worse than 3rd9

I mean it was pretty expensive especially when the PS4 and Vita ports had been 50% off or more by the time it released. Though to be fair that entire series hasn't sold big but must be selling enough to cover port and translation costs

Seems I'm halfway through RAGE. I got the
Lightening Arrows
and it was fun headshotting thugs with it :p

Last time I checked Quake Champions had nearly no Australian players. :(
Also I am absolutely awful at twitch shooters.

When Life is Strange: Before the Storm sells 3 times more in 2 days than Agents of Mayhem in 17... you know that it's BOMBA!

Life is Strange BtS is in the $15-30 range and you are comparing it to a game that is $60?

Yeah. Because it's a AAA title.
It's like seeing LiS out-sell shadow of war(kind of an extreme comparison but still). Pretty sure both SR3 and SR4 didn't sell 30K copies and had everyone at the volition offices high fiving each other.

People were worried about Prey but that at least sold 100K+. What happened to AoM has to be one of Deep Silvers biggest bombas for their owned IPs.

Though as of late they've been having a lot of trouble in everything that isn't just publishing.

At this point LiS will probably manage to outsell AoM on PS4 and Xbox as well. Hell it probably already has looking at the U.K. Numbers.
