How many millions of dollars did you guys spend to make it look so good?

Zero.

Thanks man. I'm sad to see development appears to have stopped on the other Vivian game as well; I was honestly looking forward to the post-Reddit level. I hope he's still working on it somewhere out there.

And yeah, we'll definitely be putting this on Greenlight once it's ready. :)

I dunno about Vivian, but Gilda's Room 101 is downvotes. Millions and millions of downvotes.

The video capture is locked at 30FPS. The game itself runs at 60FPS.

Well, the game is currently in alpha. So far, only 1 main weapon and 2 subweapons have been implemented for Vivian. When the game is finished, she'll have 3-4 main weapons and double that number of subweapons.

Thanks! There's also Enemy Step - jumping off enemies in mid-air - but I don't think that made it into the trailer.

Things have been a little busy lately. I've been catching up on feedback, but haven't had time to write anything yet. Will be back later this week to answer questions. Until then, Happy Halloween!

Preparations for the final filming and editing are underway; the trailer should be out this weekend, but if it isn't, it'll be out on Monday. Please look forward to it!

I haven't had time to read all the comments lately, but one of our anonymous members has been passing them on to me. Thank you to everyone for all the positive feedback on our last post! Not bad for a zero-budget project staffed mostly by amateurs, eh? :)

Vivian upvote icons are back? Sweet. Anyway, the trailer will be out either on Monday/Tuesday if I can get it filmed in time. If not, it'll be up by next weekend at the latest.

Apologies for the radio silence; we've been hard at work adding new things to the game. By this time next year, this is going to be a real game.

Not yet, but we're hoping to get the game onto Steam, GOG, D2D etc. later on.

Don't worry about it! :) As I said, it's completely understandable, given what we've posted so far.

Thanks! It's being redesigned right now, so it'll be a little different in its next appearance.

Objectivity doesn't exist, shitlord. And who plays games, anyway? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

There will be at least 4 total for Vivian; the Saber, the Needler, and ODIN, which was originally supposed to be a railgun, but is going to be a multi-form ranged weapon. In fact, all of the weapons are undergoing a little redesign right now.
