yup i will, i already downloaded it, i work tonight, in like 2 hours, but only for like 6 hours. i intend to play it when i get home.

if i notice anything i'll just post it on here, this game is coming together amazingly, and i know it might be frustrating with people mentioning bugs, but it will all be worth it in the end with a nice perfect pristine version of the game to release.

:)

keep on keepin on!

Thanks!

Then you have an excellent mindset for making a game. :)

And it shows!

Mainly due to the fact that in my truthful opinion, debugging is absolutely the most important part of the process. Of course, it also takes a major amount of the time as well.

I don't know if this has been corrected in the latest patches, but I just completed the two scammers' sidequest, and the game doesn't believe it: if I go into the east zone, Vic is still in front of the store and the main char won't exit the area. °°

Thanks for the info. No, we have not yet heard about that problem. I'm going to PM you with some questions to get a better understanding of the details.

Profit Motive Version 4.07 has been uploaded to the main website: http://profitmotivegame.com

It fixes a few potential freezes that can occur in later battles. It also adds a fully functioning version of the key staff member Niles and all of his moves and ability to level up.

Cheers,

-Sage

Okay this game is just great and can't wait till next version is up for grabs, I like the genre of the game going away from the regular games made with RM, it kinda reminds me of the minigame that was in Romancing SaGa 3.

Just finished the demo and I have to say I am very surprised! Each moment I had to do something different and kept me on my toes. The game was also pretty hard but a good challenge, at least for me since I suck at anything tactical, but once I got the hang of the battles it was pretty smooth to play. Lastly I love how alive the town felt and my involvment with characters even the most minor ones. Though the game lags a LOT for me and a few glitches in the game (funny ones though nothing too serious) like going through furniture or climbing on buildings. The game also has some spelling errors, overall though the game is really solid and I can only hope to see more of it! Most of the small problems can be ironed out so no worries though I won't deny it is a hard job finding them all. I must say thank you for you and your team for this game and you have me waiting for this game~ (I also left feedback on your site) <3 now I just have to wait for any new updates or the whole game ^-^

Thanks for the great feedback! We are glad you enjoyed it and yes, we still have quite a ways to go before it's finished, so we should be able to take care of all the issues you ran into, especially the lag :p

Look forward to future versions of the game within the next few months. You can follow us on our twitter stream for the latest release details

It's been a while, but just wanted to give a few quick updates:

Version 5 is mostly finished. We are just getting in the last few script changes and doing another art pass on the battle system. We want to make sure to get these changes right, so that's really what's taking so long. We're hoping within another month or so we can FINALLY show all the progress we've been making over the last year. In the meanwhile, enjoy some concept art of a couple of the new suits that will be in the next version :)

This is one of the best news I've gotten as of late. ; ~ ; /pitiful.

No, but seriously I was checking the website and other related search about this game yesterday but to no avail. I'm glad I check this site regularly and hope you guys keep making the awesome game you have so far!

Great concept and game. I've played my wits out of it. I can't tell you how many Virgin Martini(s) I've had throughout my game play. LOl. I also love the costume changes for the staff when they level. I am in love with the security guard. She brings comedic joy and is a awesome in battle <3

Finish the game already >_< ! T'is awesome beyond compare!

Will the final version be commercial? This game although not my style, it looks like top quality.

How many parameters is 'too many'??
Yay, now back in action Happy Christmas time, coming back!






Back in action to develop the indie game that has been long overdue... Final Fallacy. A game that keeps on giving! The development never ends as the developer thinks to be the smart cookie by coming back and beginning by saying... "Oh bother, this indie game has been long overdue..." How could one resist such? No-one c
So I was playing with filters and this looked interesting...

Versus the normal look...

Kind of gives a very different feel. :LZSexcite:
To whom ever person or persons who re-did the DS/DS+ asset packs for MV (as in, they are all 48x48, and not just x2 the pixel scale) .... THANK-YOU!!!!!!!!! XwwwwX
