Legate of Mineta Posted September 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Haha! I should probably log in and do the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freespace2dotcom Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Ooh, "Special upgrades" eh? I wonder.... To be honest, I feel like the game "has" to make it. It's unthinkable for the greenlight to fail after we've come so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted September 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Free; Oh, I'm sure it will. It's just a question of when. It was the same way with Scheherazade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyrhet Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Cool beans. I was surprised at how verbose the campaign page was, with fiction in the game description. But I guess the intended audience is the type to respond to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freespace2dotcom Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 So, where will we need to send our proof of purchase of the game when it launches, then? Will a PM to you be sufficient, or will we need email? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted September 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Free; Probably better to send it over to academagia at gmail dot com. That will probably be the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freespace2dotcom Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Oooh, even if there's still some time before we should do that, I kind of want to do it right now to make sure that any unexpected kinks get worked out beforehand and that I can get the game again right when it becomes available....

Lilette Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 This was a pleasant surprise to wake to! (I was hoping for the Pokemon Go update, but this is even better!) I've shared the link on my FB and Twitter and I'm prodding my friends on Steam~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metis Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 So that's a thing that just happened . Seeing as how I actually wouldn't buy the game on Steam even assuming it ends up there, though, I won't falsely claim that I would. Now a GoG version, that'd be a different story, but sadly I'm not a fan of Steam. All the same, here's to hoping it doesn't get buried under a pile of cheaper shinies within the next hour.

Lilette Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 The link to Academagia.com has the comma in its url link thing on the Greenlight's main page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ascartand Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Hahaha its finally here, I gave my vote and left a comment. I hope this succeeds greatly, and I would assume proof of purchase would be that bmt email or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schwarzbart Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Legate would you mention the Greenlight for Academagia at last in the Holdfast Kickstarter as you sold the game there? (Maybe also over at the other Kickstarter as some show interest in voting for Academagia there) Also 5 comments so far at the Greenlight page but not sure about the votes. Edit: mentioned it over at Hanako that Greenlight is now open http://hanakoforum.nfshost.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=831&p=18017#p18017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted September 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Schwarzbart; In general, we try to avoid too much of the KS spam, but I'm sure it will go up in the next VB Update. I'm not sure about Holdfast. I'd like to know about the votes, too- but if Scheherazade is any indication, it will take a little while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarod Cain Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Well, I've voted and commented. I'm sure everything will work out fine in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but Scheherazade just doesn't have that drawing power that Academagia does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 At last no negative comment so far, hope this is a good sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metis Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 So I read through the Greenlight, and a few things to point out: I’d say it’s safer to explore the Academy of Mineta itself, but let’s be real: the school’s seventeen hundred years old, and it’s been the center of wizard uprisings, undead invasions, and Gods know what all else. The Explore action's description claims that the foundations of the school are over 3 millennia old. So, in theory, that means you could find something...probably buried under the school grounds that's a millennia older than the school itself? and you’ll have dynamic, incredibly complicated relationships between the eighty-some students themselves in your year I don't think "relationship measured from -10 to 13+", "is or isn't your Rival" and "is or isn't a member of your Clique" really qualifies as "dynamic" or "incredibly complicated". Negation, the magic of deflection, evaluation, and stillness? "Stillness" as in just plain old silence? Because the other kind of stillness I'm familiar with I don't think a guard would be in favor of (and it's more of a Mastery thing anyway )... And a bonus one from one of the comments just because it's just so incredibly true... Since there isn't a Harry Potter game worth playing that really capture the endless possibilities of the HP universe, Academagia is all we are left with. You'd think the one visual medium that get easily get away with 80+ hour lengths would be the one to bring the full version of the story to people's screens, but no. Instead we got 5-10 hour platformers who's self-contained plot is a cliff-notes version of the films, and indeed, stretched thin to the point of being borderline incomprehensible when taken on their own. I mean there's definitely worse games out there (aside from one instance of having to re-fight the troll from the "troll in the bathroom" debacle as part of a first year's Herbology class...twice...right after fighting the original and being told how a first year can't be expected to survive an encounter with one...), but they just aren't the games that are still great and fun to play even a decade after the fact. And of course Academagia will still be played a decade after the fact...because that's roughly how long it'll take for Y2 to be released, but, details .

Legate of Mineta Posted September 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Metis; In the catacombs, yes...muahaha, I suppose it depends on your definitions! It seems both to me, but I also understand what you are driving at. Silence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
