Beach Bounce Loyalty Discount

Hi all, first of all a big thanks for buying at some stage Sword of Asumi, I am now happy to say we have officially released our second title on Steam.

Beach Bounce



http://store.steampowered.com/app/352010/

And as an extra special bonus, all owners of Sword of Asumi are getting double the normal release discount if they order the game in the first week of release as an extra special thanks for your loyalty to our games.

This will give owners of Sword of Asumi a total of 40% off the game if they buy the game in its first week of release.

Episodic Play



To make Beach Bounce that much better we are releasing it in episodic format, so the first episode is available immediately.

Episode 2 will then be released as a free update on October 12th and Episode 3 as another free update on December 14th.

But you might want to buy sooner as not only is the game on discount now, but it is also at the lower price, since as we release more content we will be increasing the price in line with the extra content.

The soundtrack is also available for a 20% discount during launch week.

Whichever version you buy you will be entitled to all future episodes and updates at no extra charge. If you wait the price of the games may well increase as more episodes are released.

Update 2.03

A very very minor update removing a few very very minor bugs that should have been removed in earlier updates but seemed to keep getting missed mostly by accident.

The main bugs are minor fixed in this update are a few grammar errors and name appearance issues. I would like to say this will be the final update but I am sure others will slowly appear out of the wood work one day soon, until then it is the final.

Also a quick note we have finally removed the credits for 'voice actors' in the game, sorry for the confusion this should have been removed some time ago, for various reasons we were unable to implement the voice acting which is why there were no options for it and why it is never included as a feature.
the credits have been overlooked for sometime but have now been rectified.

There are a number of reasons we couldn't include the voice acting in the development and so I wont go into detail here, if interested I live stream every saturday on youtube, please ask me then and I will explain gladly.

Thanks for reading.

Divine Slice of Life on Kickstarter

Hi all, I am happy to announce that our latest game 'Divine Slice of Life' is currently being funded on Kickstarter.



The new games story revolves around Aaki the protagonist whose humble life gets torn apart when he meets two enraged demi-gods on his walk home from uni. The two then need little encouragement to harass Aaki by never leaving his side again...

The game will feature two demi gods as well as a collection of university students several of whom have eyes for the protagonist. This cute slice of life story with a divine twist will let you decide how it unfolds and whether Aaki ends up happy or sad at the games conclusion.



You can help support this game, get early access and other rewards by supporting the kickstarter campaign by following this link:

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/kirito/divine-slice-of-life

Update:



We have now met our primary target and have offered several stretch goals which will add extra content to the games final release. So backing the campaign will not only get you great rewards but also make the game larger and more interesting to play.

Steam Sale & New Game

We are happy to announce that as promised we have launched a new sale period for Sword of Asumi. For the coming week the game and deluxe edition will be available at a discounted rate if purchased on Steam.

http://store.steampowered.com/app/326950/

Remember the Deluxe Edition includes all DLC items currently available.

As promised proceeds from this sale will be going towards production of a possible second game set in the same universe, which will be larger, have more characters and hopefully even more romance.

Taking the characters much further than we did before.

Divine Slice of Life



In other news we have also recently launched a Kickstarter for another game to be released on Steam later in the year. We have already achieved our primary goal and any funds received now will go towards our stretch goals to make a bigger and better game for our backers and audience to enjoy.

Please check it out for more info on the game:

Version 2.02, Mobile, Sales & Figurines

A quick update has been posted today that updates the game to the latest version of Renpy, a stable edition (Renpy is the engine used to build the game).

It also fixes a small bug that was mentioned in the community hub recently that occurs after you choose your dispatch method of the principal within the game.

Mobile Version



I am also happy to announce that we have begun testing a mobile version of the game which we hope to release soon on Android and iOS platforms.

Sales & Bundles



As recently announced we will be releasing the game on a number of new platforms soon including the indiegala store and other locations, as part of that we will be conducting a number of sales and including the game in bundles. All of which we hope will help us to fund development of a sequel that many have requested.

Figurines



We are happy to announce that we currently have the Kami figurines available for pre-order via a Kickstarter campaign. These are full color hand painted 8 inch figurines featuring Kami from the books and games.

In addition we have a few left over Asumi figurines, the main character from this game, also available for order via the campaign as well.

More details on mobile versions and sales to follow...

iOS and Android

Hi all,

I am happy to announce that Sword of Asumi is now getting ready for an ios and android tablet launch, we are currently in the process of editing the game so it meets the mobile requirements each of those platforms have.

Once we have done that we will be releasing to the store.

The Sword of Asumi on mobile will be the same edition as on steam, but with some minor edits as required by apple and android respectively. Along with ios and android we will also be considering other platforms to release on fairly soon as well.

Watch this space for more news on our games hitting the mobile stores soon.

Sequel Kickstarter Now Live!

Hi all, so we said back in March that if we have over 5,000 players by the end of March then we would try to raise funding for a sequel to the game to be made.

Now we didn't quite get enough funds during the March sale to fund development but thanks to bundle sales and promotions we do have over 5,000 players and so we have launched a Kickstarter campaign. Which if successful will fund the development of the sequel.

So if you want to see a sequel for Sword of Asumi please checkout the campaign on Kickstarter and help us raise the funds we need to make it happen.
