Allow me to complement you on your very simple yet extremely effective explosion sound fx. It's a real nice one.

So the Pink Pig mode looks a lot like Dangun Feveron scoring-wise, but it's still pretty funny.

This looks beautiful!! Most import thing though, is that the gameplay is good. It never ceases to amaze me that games made by 3 or 4 people excite me much more than 400 man teams. Good luck!!

The game is out now. :)

Do note, LASTBOSS88, that you forgot to add the early access banner on the Steam page, so it's currently showing/tagged as a "fully released" game. :wink:

I've been playing about with this and must admit I've been left a little flat by a few things:

1. Sometimes the visual stacking isn't quite right, and I'm dying to stuff I either can't see or is at the least quite obscured.
2. It feels to me like the diagonals are too quick?
3. It also feels too zoomed in?

I'm quite curious has to how much shmup experience the devs have? Regardless, there's definitely something to build on and here's hoping we come out of the other end of Early Access with something solid.

looking forward to diving into this game later today.

Seems Steam Offline mode isn't functional. Same bug Steam version of Castle of Ishigami 2 experienced (Later fixed)

This game requires you to be logged on even with Steam Offline mode.

Yes, we saw, it is a bug which it is produced with the publication. We are in the process of requesting to correct this

@banjoted
We are still in early access for several months, we will try to improve some points.
For the diagonal problem, we are improving this

Oh I know mate, fear not. I work for a developer, albeit not as a coder - to a muggle like me, the whole endeavour is magic! Good luck dude, it's looking really promising :-)

Thank you! Looks like it was updated with the fix. It works.... kinda. The popup still triggers when launchingthe game, however once we confirm the game plays. Almost there with the fix, need to remove that pop up dialog.

So the version everybody wants is the one nobody will be able to play. Thks Exarcadia!

Was going to buy the game once it got the final update, but now I'd feel silly if I did. Sorry, LASTBOSS88.

Are you telling me there is a TATE version that is arcade exclusive!? Wow..what a load of crap. I was going to wait until it dropped out of early access to buy..but not anymore.

The website and the shooter fes basically said that tate was exclusive to exa and that's the thing that gets my goat Eric Chung grabs people and things and exclusivises it for his little platform. He exploits FOMO to his advantage that way. I really have no use for his system.

I wonder if the game is still coming in some form to console like Lastboss claimed in this thread earlier last year? Or did Chung lock it up completely for exa after the steam release? I'd buy it on console but I'm not dropping thousands for an arcade platform and game dongles. I guess FOMO is the only way one would pony up so much money for some of their other releases like that homebrew nes game with the exclusive caravan mode lol.

Yeah, it's confirmed, so Pink Label can't get released on consoles either.

I don't think Exarcadia is the one to blame, though. They want their platform to succeed and getting exclusives is the best way to do it. If it wasn't because they're getting the developers to waste their time in old things instead of creating new ones, it's actually a commendable effort, in a way, I wonder how can they make any money with this model and if they're really there to stay.

But as potential customers we can say no, thanks to this model. Maybe when the developers find out that they aren't selling well (at all, ideally) their home versions for being automatically inferior, the Exarcadia thing won't be so attractive for them.

/Of course, those who think that a low-profile indie game for Windows-based systems is worth some thousands don't need to apply./
