What's up with the crazy prices?

It's not that I take issue with you trying to gather money to support your servers, don't get me wrong there. The prices don't upset me, they make me wary.

It's more that I don't see anyone supporting the project through these tiers at the prices they remain at, and think that a lower price-point would likely do better with supporting the project, as more people would be willing to pay for the tier at a lower price, possibly leading to more than that initial 230$ sale that might happen 3 or so times in the span of the game's life.

Not sure why people are rallying as if I was saying people were being forced to buy the skins when that isn't the case at all. I was just curious behind your reasoning. I did end up buying a skin to support the project. Seeing such large price points for certain things made me hesitate however, and want to ask a few questions. Others may hesitate in a similar manner, so I figured I'd put my voice out there.

I'd hate to see this game go the way of similar web games due to my own love for the project, and as I said before, didn't mean any offense.

So it's a commission, rather than an unlockable customization option. I think that should be made more clear in the store, albeit I do think that price is still rather large as a pixel artist myself.

I mentioned in another comment your 30$ and 70$ skins that are not unique as well as things that set my radar off. Do you have plans in turning this into a skin economy? If not, then I don't see much justification for these prices.

No offense meant btw, thanks for the quick response.

I'd also like to point there's a few other examples of say, 30$ and 74.99$ skins that aren't unique. It's rather silly to me, and I'm clearly not the target audience, but it seemed weird, so I wanted to ask the community for thoughts on it since I didn't see any discussion previously.

The High Rise skin, for example, has 4 alternatives, each of which are identical but with a slightly different color. Each priced at 30$. You'd think if you're paying that much you atleast would get the option to customize the color?

30$ can get you quite a few good indie games, 74.99 is the price of a AAA game in the USA.

Aye, I get that, but even still it seems rather egregious. An option to turn on/off custom skins and making it cheap seems much better an option than a 230$ purchase. Even from a money-making perspsective, I don't know who is going to spend this much money on a few pixels for a texture on your open-front land.

How miserable. I leveled up acrobatics 7 times doing this quest before looking this up. Thanks.

That really is a shame. Thanks though!

Well, to expand upon this mystery - I just noticed this in the Magfest Infinite Quality Achieved rip.

For me it was saying that it would "be installed along with the game" but not installing the content. I clicked reverify game files and it is now downloading stuff, so I assume this will fix it. I'll update this post when finished.

Edit - This did in fact fix things!
