NuffCatnip: Thanks for the link! :)
This is going to be an instabuy for me.
Now where is 'Killer is Dead' ?
avatar
Siegor: Well they have it on Steam but unfortunately the port isn't very good. I got stuck in an early chapter where you have to mash a button which apparently is impossible to do with mouse and keyboard.
If it gets released here I hope that gets sorted.
Bought it on Steam, too, but I'd like to have it on gog. :)
Don't know which chapter it was (I think it was the first with the 'Alice' boss), I got stuck as well, I had to reinstall the game a couple times to get past that point.
I agree, not having to deal with those bugs would be neat.
The Masquerada devs seem to not even mention it anywhere, that's a bad sign. Their Kickstarter page mentions DRM free copies to only come with the higher physical tiers (!!), a really bad sign. They proudly feature the Steam logo everywhere. No mention of GOG on their website or on facebook as well.

I've sent the devs an email. Let's see whether they'll reply.

Great news. GOG needs more good japanese games.

For what it's worth, Limited Run Games is apparently going to be releasing a collector's edition physical copy of the game for PC which will include a physical CD soundtrack, a comic book and a printed manual. No release window given for now. Unfortunately, it seems to be connected to Steam rather than being DRM-Free, so I will regretfully be giving it a pass in favor of the GOG version. Such a shame.

It really is a shame. It's a nice selection of goodies but not many physical releases can be redeemed on GOG. Of the top of my head I can only think of the Witcher games.

That might change over time, but GOG still has a lot of growth and catch up to do first. They're well on their way though, and things might be quite different 2-3 years from now with any luck.

LimitedRunGames wrote this on neoGAF:
t's our first PC release so we're doing this one as a timed edition preorder to test the waters and see where demand for the platform is. We also need time to figure out assembly and make sure all the manufactured components are up to snuff.

Steam keys will be included by nothing in the box will be dependent on Steam. You'll get a Steam key through email shortly after purchase to play and enjoy while you wait for the box to ship.

We're really excited to be working with Suda, Playism, and GM. Expect more cool stuff in the future if this goes well. ;)

Just when I thought I was out...

Thanks for the information! I really enjoy their products, so I was kinda bummed that I was going to have to pass on their first PC project.

Siegor: Have you tried the new Tex Murphy game? It's quite good.
avatar
skeletonbow: Yeah, I *LOVE* Tex Murphy games! I only briefly played Tesla Effect so far though as I decided I want to play them all through in chronological order some day. My introduction to the games was Under a Killing Moon which I solved, and Pandora Directive which I got about 90% through when it came out in the 90s.

Fantastic games.
good to see others like these too! great games with a ton of personality.
thumbs up for zombasite and masquerada ;)

Indeed. In the 80s I played "Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego" or some game like that and while playing it I had some ideas bouncing around in my head about how cool it would be if you could literally be *IN* a computerized game world, walk around like a real person and interact with objects, open drawers for real to search for clues etc. all basically what we now take forgranted as first-person games. No such thing existed at the time though and I just had this vision in my mind about how amazing it would be to walk around and interact with people and objects in a detective type adventure. Probably some time around 1986 or so.

Fast forward to 1994 or thereabouts and Under a Killing Moon was the big bad Game of the Year with huge cardboard posters everywhere etc. A friend bought it and brought it over to my place one night and I flipped out. After only a short time playing it I told my buddy "holy shit, this is exactly the game I fantasized about in 1986!". The only weakness was the camera-style controls rather than FPS style controls, but that only took a few hours to get used to and UAKM was an amazing experience, definitely worthy of the GOTY label. :)

That hooked me right there. :)
The creator of ("a group based role-playing dungeon crawler") recently mentioned in [url=https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/lavidimus/chris-taylors-arakion/posts/1682688]an update that "if you don't want steam you'll have access to a DRM free download and I'll also be working to put it up on GoG to give you the most options possible".

While GOG was mentioned long ago in the FAQ on Kickstarter, the first part is a lot more finished now and I might be imagining things but the recent update seems more hopeful regarding GOG than the previous... eh, "hopefully".

looks kinda good, very positive reviews on steam and if we get the same price as steam it seems to be a "fair" deal.
