Back in Town (SG that is).

Hi guys, I'm back in Singapore. Thanks for all the advise from on where to get DVDs and PSPs while I was in San Francisco. Great city, love the place, definitely will consider setting up a branch office there someday. :-P

Just an informal update on MW: Episode 1 (Premium Version); The hunter's guild and guild quests are done. TY has done up the level 2 supers for the 3 main character MAWs. The 4th character's MAW and dialogue have been done. The ruins have been designed. I'll work with TY on the 4th character's supers and touching up the 2nd level supers.

And... when can we expect a release date?

Hunter's Guild, Guild Quest, Ruins, a 4th Character, more Overdrives? This sounds like it's going to be beyond awesome. What's the fourth character like? Is it the Laura-bot, or is that still going to be the boss of the ruins?

Too bad I'm not going to be able to play it... My parents wouldn't give me money for an online game.

I was thinking maybe we should just spring the release on everyone. You know, instead of announcing a release date.


Ok, just kidding. I'll come out with a release date when we've finished the thing and submitted it to the publisher.

I wonder if we'll be able to ship boxed sets. We'll need some other publisher and ESRB rating etc if we want to do that.

Anything new gonna be added to the free-to-play verson? Or is it gonna be the same game as the beta verson, only without the bugs?

Cervantes de Leonardo Da Vinci, will a box edition be avalible only on the PC? Or will you do a Nintendo DS verson or even a Nintendo Wii verson? A console verson sounds like it might be fun, maybe condense the first 3 episodes into 1 game with different gameplay and different dialogue then the PC verson. Would be something to consider when TYLER has more money. And after Mobile Weapon 3 comes out, of course.

I hope the premium version is free. Its a good idea to have some traffic.

Wow, you guys sure got a lot done during the holidays.

We don't even know how to get a boxed edition published. If we ever get it published, chances are it will be out on PC before any console.

I wish premium could be free, but it's not. Traffic isn't earning enough and we're dangerously low on funds.

We still haven't been paid for the Sony project we did last year.

Why don't you put a couple of banners on the side of the game when you're playing, etc. ? Since it would be around the game, it wouldn't detract from the gameplay, and I think that at optimum, you can get 10 cents US per click on the banner. I don't know if you guys are running on US or Singaporian money, but if you can get a bunch of people clicking on it, (They don't even have to buy anything...) you could get some extra funds.

Are you sure? I hope the Multiplayer version is free then.

We have Google ads but the revenue is pathetic. We'd add more ads by Google says we can't. Then again so many other sites flaunt this rule and Google isn't in a legal position to say we can't put other banners, technically.

Yes, Multiplayer will be free to play.
