[Menome]

Missed out on the Alpha, so fingers crossed I'll be able to give this a go. Certainly one of the most original-looking games that I'm looking forward to.

Please do. Not being able to improve the Glory of Town and the Life my fellow Citizens makes me feel sad and useless. =(

I remember when this was a 2015 game. I wonder what happened. It looked super polished last year.

Dylan here, we simply went crazy and added a whole ton of content and made the game a persistent online game. The alpha had "stage clear" and "stage fail" situations but because of the awesome feedback we got during the test we decided to go whole hog on it so you can live in a town for as long as you can keep it alive.

 

[jiggle]

Signed up
Hope I get in this time

Damn, what happened to Autumn 2015

Sorry... we've been busting our balls though and not slacking. The results will speak for themselves!

Are we getting weather feature ?

 

[HiVision]

Also, this beta test will allow you to move freely between towns as you like. So if you want to create a neogaffer town you can. It will be basically the final game minus a few tweaks influenced by the test itself. (and any bug fixes or fixes for problems we encounter!)

 

[Krystopher McConnor]

Original looking artstyle, but really don't like it, gives me the creeps

 

[HiVision]

Not yet! But it is in our list!

Sounds good! Seems like the delay is gonna be worth afterall.

Isn't that kind of the point?

 

[HiVision]

It's meant to be a little creepy, it's an alternative timeline for a creepy soviet state 50 years from now!

I just got back from PSX where massiveduck and I demoed the game to lots of amazing PS fans, and we had a blast showing them all the new cool stuff. We couldn't get most players off the game even after 30 minutes of standing there playing.

Dylan, is there already a "release date/window"?
Spring'16?

 

[Krystopher McConnor]

I get that, but that still doesn't make me like it. Even though it's really well done.

It's meant to be a little creepy, it's an alternative timeline for a creepy soviet state 50 years from now!

I know, and for that, props. Because it's really well executed.

If you guys felt delaying it would make it even better, I absolutely support that NOWREWARDMYLOYALTYWITHBETA *ahem* sorry ._.

 

[Pete the Ferret]

This has been one of my most watched future titles, I love the style and have added my name for the EU Beta (PSN Username - iamme72).

Fingers crossed!

That was supposed to be in "The day after tomorrow children", I should have been enjoying the release version by now!

 

[oRuin]

Good stuff thanks.
Been looking forward to trying this out.

 

[MechaBowser]

The alpha was a lot of goddamn fun, I played it endlessly. That was over a year ago I think, something like that. Can't wait to see what that game is now.

 

[addik]

Signed up for the US beta, as my console is US and thus, I have a US account, but I'll be playing all the way from the Philippines. Will I be able to join the beta (if ever I do get a key), or will they lock me out since I'm from a different region?

If it's the latter, I'll also hold on to my key in case I get one.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Good thing they added EU beta. Hopefully I get in this time ;-;

 

[AHK_Hero]

Signed up! Been looking forward to this game since I saw its reveal.

Love the unique art-style in conjunction with the bleak, cold war aesthetic.

 

[tfur]

Signed up. Looking forward to getting in this world.

Woohoo!! (^.^)/

So, it's an actual beta test, and that's why there's no release window yet? You guys rock!! <3

 

[Prototype Viktor]

I hope I get in to see what's changed since the Alpha I played...also so I can rig more elections

 

[jiggle]

Pixeljunk monsters 2 is next after this ships
Yes?

 

[YoungOne]

Signed up enjoyed my time with the alpha and look forward to seeing the improvements they made.

Sounds dope.

 

[Man]

The alpha was pretty smooth already back in.. February? Really liked the general feel and UI.

 

[mushrambio]

Thanks for the heads up man, hopefully I can get a Beta code; been wanting to check this game out more since they announced it.

 

[Darth Smurf X]

Signed up. I've been looking forward to this game since it was announced.

Will the "freely move between towns" be in the finished game, or will it be limited to visiting other towns as you've indicated before?

Anyway, really looking forward to this, loved the alpha

 

[SteamyPunk]

They were giving out these little booklets at PSX that explained the game and included little tickets and fake money. Completely useless stuff but so endearing.I got the sense that the developer is really proud and excited for their game. Can't wait!

Also, I asked about the delay and whether it was due to technical issues or out of control ambition. The developer laughed and said "definitely the second one!"

It will be in the finished game, you can move your house to any town too. The beta test is basically the finished game and depending on how it goes we will be able to announce the release date.

Oh, okay. I had actually assumed that it was always a persistent online game. But I'm all for devs taking as long as they need to finish their games. Good luck!

Tim Schafer (Double Fine) sounds like he's going to give it a play, so you never know you could be living in the same town as a celeb like him, that'd be pretty awesome

 

[Mik2121]

Hey Dylan, first of all, your game looks awesome!
I've been really looking forward to it since the announcement. Hopefully the beta for Japan comes soon!

Cheers
