There are no plans for DLCs at the moment. The released game will be fully playable with no crappy IAP or whatnot. To quote our CEO - "games should be play to win, not pay to win".
But it is possible that in the future we will provide extra missions/quests. This entirely depends on the success of the game.

your ceo sounds like he's in it FOR THE GAME and to not ever make a profit for any company he ever works for.

seems reasonable.

Are you being sarcastic? it's hard to tell...
Unfortunately, it looks like the future of gaming is moving more and more in the directions of IAPs and DLCs that if you don't buy and download, you can't finish the game. And this, of course, totally sucks.
But then again, the gaming community is pretty much divided in to two types of people - the addicts/passer timers, and the passionate gamers. Real games made by proper developers are made to be played by the latter.
Paying 10 or 20 dollars for a game, and properly enjoying it for countless hours is WAY more fun and satisfying, if you ask me.

Thermidor is not exactly a historical game. It takes place in France at the beginning of the French Revolution, and there will be some depictions of historical figures and landscapes, and perhaps some connections to historical events, but it will largely be fiction. Though there will be no "lobster men" or anything related to lobsters for that matter, but if you back this game generously, we might invite you to dinner with us, and lobster will definitely be an option (:

To be fair, this is kind of a novel idea and game. If you guys pull off the gameplay it will definitely have a niche following.

No one cares about grammar and spelling mistakes or a one pixel off A if the gameplay and story are entertaining.

Sure!
I've written music for about 20 games or so, but the best ones have been for HyperDevbox!
ExZeus 2, Indy 500 Arcade Racing, and Matchiiz.

You can listen to some of my music on my website here.

Hopefully, yes.


Zohar posted:

The Jacobin club was found in 1789, which is when the revolution started, and where the game starts.
Thermidor is hopefully going to be a series, spanning through the French Revolution, so it's also relative to the continuation of the storyline.
Plus, its a cool name ^^

Thank you for your comment, though I am not exactly sure what you mean.
We are not using Persona at the moment, therefore not very familiar with it.
Could you please elaborate on your request?
Also, what do you mean by "add Robespierre as a love interest?

Thank you for your question.

There will be no crafting system as of now, but we will have an advanced weaponry system where each weapon needs a certain amount of skill (exp) for it to be used properly.
And also some other interesting features borrowed from other game styles, such as the ability to pick up weapons from the field, or pass/drop them.

We will describe this in much more detail as soon as the crowdfunding campaign launches.
So stay in touch! ^^

This actually looks a lot better than I had expected from that announcement teaser. The character models look a bit wonky but otherwise it seems competently made. Not at all the RPG maker game I was expecting to see. So good job?

Your post on the uniforms made me curious, though. Is this a Japanese studio or are you a group of Frenchmen who decided to set up shop in Tokyo? Either way you are more knowledgeable on the subject of 1789 European uniforms than I am.

On a side note, I'm a bit upset that you mix the revolutionary name of a month with the year according to the Gregorian calendar.

Please can you confirm that Thermidor will have a similar 'breeding' system to hyperdevbox's acclaimed android rpg "RPG Record of Agarest War"



I'm sure I'm speaking for a lot of your audience when I say I would not want to miss out on the chance to 'soul-breed' with revolutionaries of questionable age.
