Ah, the english Wikipedia has it!
Hm, it seems as if the game wouldn`t run on my laptop. That`s sad. And a sign of the times: Graphics, that look like they are straight from the beginning of the nineties need DX 11. Even DX 7 should be enuff for that, but nope.

After playing this for a bit I regret nothing. I am having fun with it.

This looks like a cool game and I share others' sentiment hoping for the dev's other games to be available here on GOG.

I second this. And this. This makes me sad. Someone should probably tell them that GOG does the work on making old games run on new systems, don't they? Also, https://www.gog.com/wishlist/games/cthulhu_saves_the_world and https://www.gog.com/wishlist/games/breath_of_death_vii_the_beginning proves a few hundred potential sales at least. How is that not worth the simple effort of giving GOG the game files and permission?

I second this as well honestly.

I think it kinda depends, like to me it seems like GOG is trying to shift more responsibility to developers (especially when they have the source code themselves). Plus I'm sure part of it depends on expected sales, a return-on-investment, and while I like the wishlist it's no guarantee of that many sales.

Similar battle mechanics too Star Heroine, but sort of disorienting and fragmented in terms of story. Like, Knights Of Pen And Paper levels of relentless 4th wall breaks held together by shoe string.

Not sure how I feel about the three rotating randomized skill slots that auto-fill with leftovers on recharge. Maybe there's no need to overthink a throwaway parody game that isn't really asking to be held to the same standard as Star Heroine.

F'taghn or something

That is sad to hear. I got both on steam(iirc) or some other store & the bits I played were pretty decent for an older game/I am certain at least STW will run on win10 with a bit of work.

Maybe as the one user said they could add it as a bonus goodies for us who want the originals? :)

=========================

Why? Not every game needs achievements(aka digital heroin). o.0

That's beyond silly by Zeboyd. If there's anything GoG is good at, it's getting old games working on modern computers.

...because the Steam version offers achievements and theres no reason GOG should not receive them as well.

Tbh i'd rather we get more old games here period(like we just did a week or so ago).....with or without achievements....and timely updates for newer games on Gog as well. :)

(Full disclosure: I sometimes collect them, but I still see them for what they are.....a gimmick/fad to sell more games by devs & console makers.....and one which has some negative aspects[some people are so addicted to them they have to play certain ways to get as many as possible, etc] to go along with the positives)
============================

To be fair, a good number of their fixes were done by taking stuff made by others(dosbox/scummVm/various tweaks/etc) and using it in their installers & even rarely(in the beginning) trying to pass them off as their own work.

Now that isn't to say they don't do ANY work...they test the games on each supported OS and package the installers, add them to the store, etc......but usually they are more likely to add games to the store when others have fixed the game already & all they need to do is add their work to one of their installers.

As such, with some games(that are less popular and don't have community made fixes) it might be harder for Gog themselves to fix them even if the makers offered them up to Gog to fix.

(As an example...there are some older games that use 16-bit exes and installers that will not run on 64 bit OSs[afaik] without rewrites to their exe files and installers)

One thing has nothing to do with the other. Only because the dev is lacking adding achievements as he does on Steam does not mean that GOG will get fewer old games. Adding achievements for any game is NOT additional workload GOG would have - it is purely up to the devs to add these. There simply is no reason for any dev to give GOG not the same treatment regarding achievements and many other features the same game has on Steam. After all, they want the same money from us.

Also, just because you don't care about achievements does not mean that they should not be here at all. We had this discussion over and over but achievements are good for those who want them and not bad for those who don't care bout them as long as they are optional and can be turned off. Since we are not talkingt about ingame achievements here they would be completely optional ... if they were an option at all which so far is only the case on Steam and not on GOG and that sinply is wrong no matter how you or I or anybody is thinking about achievements. Please don't defend when devs are treating GOG customer a second class - the list is too long already ;)
You are correct but GOG always was open about this fact. Using DosBox, ScummVM, dgVoodoo, nGlide ect. is easy for those that know how to use these emulators. GOG was always trying to let people not so tech savvy install a game and let them play immediately without configuring or tweaking them (they are not always successful but they try). There are also a still exceptions in which GOG did their own solutions to get music to work or fix some bugs as well. The general ide is always the same: install and play right away.

In this case the dev himself said that the game has problems with "modern systems" - so if this in fact is the case it might not be so easy for GOG to fix this. Then again - I did not have any problems in Win7 so it's hard to imagine such a game would make trouble on Win10. Maybe the devs simply did not have much interest in supporting another game here on GOG - like I said, it is hard to believe that this game would be problematic on Win10.
