Pointing and laughing.
Guess the bills need to be paid.
Was there even an attempt to hype it, even in the lowly circles where people might be interested in this thing?
Or did they just dump it on Steam?
Probably not a good idea to make something in a genre you don't particularly care for.Annie said:I hope you enjoy it - visual novels weren't really my bag before, but as a designer it's been fun experimenting with them and seeing how they tick.

I'm skeptical of those player numbers. Going by Steam charts it's around 30 players at best.
so there are probably less than 100 people have/played it, but because of how steamspy calculate things, the numbers appear to be 1000+?Two weeks worth of sales finally in http://steamspy.com/app/515000

Less than 1000 owners = statistically near-zero. I mean, look at this: http://steamspy.com/app/362960

So, when can we read the RPG Codex review?

PANIC High Newsletter #2: First Patch is go!
August 31 - Murderblonde
Hello again, current students (and possibly future interested attendees)!
Today we celebrate not only the two-week-a-versary (I tried looking up if this had a proper Latin name, but the Goobluz search engine was NO HELP) of the beginning of school here at Multiverse High! We’ve been very pleased to see your happy faces in the halls (although every day we seem to see less and less Kevins – are you cutting class, young men?) and hope to see more promising young folks join our ranks.
We’re pleased to also offer up our very first “Patch”! I have been told this is a fascinating bit of technology that presents fixes to issues large and small. How lovely! Our excellent technology officer has given me a list of some things that have been dealt with:
+ A number of typos have been fixed, thanks to the diligence of multiple students in pointing them out! Thank you for your conscientiousness!
+ “Self-voicing” mechanic will now not repeatedly read the date. Although it is always prudent to be mindful of one’s scheduling, constant reminders bordering on nagging are never any fun!
+ Minor visual errors have been fixed (likely thanks to Art Club!)
A quick apology to students from the Mac and Linux departments that we do not yet have versions ready for you, but rest assured that our whole faculty is working very hard on the problem, and are being assisted by some truly kind and hardworking individuals. Your help today makes a better tomorrow!
That’s it for me for now, but I do hope you check back in with us for future exciting updates. Be sure to tell everyone about the fun you have at Multiverse High – we always welcome new enrollees!
DoubleBear Productions - An indie developer of ferocious excellence.
Does anyone know how much of this number is due to the Humble Weekly Bundle Orbit Play? I know I got the game from that bundle, but my google-fu fails me to find out how many copies of that bundle were sold. I bought the bundle because of Grim Fandango Remastered, and it was dirt cheap.I get the impression that since Dead State was Brian's brainchild, it's now Annie's turn. They get to one-up Avellone by doing the high school RPG he wanted to do until he played Bully, and slather it with her womanchild aesthetics.
So is this DoubleBear's new direction? Have they abandoned any thoughts of more ambitious games (and indeed games in general). Does anyone know how bad the Dead State sales were?

Even with Steam cuts and deep discounts to consider, that's somewhere in the range of half a million to a million.
This is absolutely a tongue-in-cheek parody of both a visual novel and science-fantasy superhero caper. I personally loved it. A playthrough took roughly two hours and with a handful of saves to go back and choose other paths.
There are three stats to choose from - Cool, Tough and Nice and associated activities and people to befriend and pratice with. Everyone is a stereotype and they work really well in a multiverse setting. I enjoyed the handful of NPC's I ran into in my first playthrough and now really the question that remains is... save scum and do everyone else from the clubs I unlocked or a fresh start and different trait/club combination?
Great game. Adorable and charming, the low fi art style really fits with the theme and I actually do hope for a real sequel. Now to get back to the PANIC!
10/10 Would hit jerkface bully in the eye with mints any day of the week.
It was a nice distraction from all the shooters I've been playing lately, and if you are looking for a game where murder and violence aren't the only way to solve problems, you might enjoy PANIC at Multiverse High!
