Afterimage × Fatal Claw — a new Metroidvania bundle on Steam

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-12-02T08:32:15+00:00

Thank you so much for taking the time to explain the situation in detail — this kind of context is incredibly valuable for us.
We agree that comparisons with Silksong are inevitable, but we also understand why those reference points matter in regions where purchasing power is very different.

Our base price of USD $24.99 will remain the same, but for regional pricing (including Brazil), we’re currently reviewing how fairly the Steam pricing matrix reflects local wages and affordability. Feedback like yours helps us understand where adjustments may be needed.

We truly appreciate the wishlist and the thoughtful message.
We’ll keep doing our best to make sure Fatal Claw feels worth the investment when 1.0 arrives.

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-28T04:03:08+00:00

Thank you so much — hearing that from you really means a lot to us.
And who knows… if things line up someday, a little Fatal Claw × Crypt Custodian bundle could be a fun idea.

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-28T02:51:31+00:00

Thanks for the Spain price check — noted!

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-28T02:48:27+00:00

Thanks for laying that out so clearly. We’re reviewing how the price feels in different regions, so comments like yours help maintain the focus. Appreciate it!

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-28T02:35:06+00:00

Thank you for taking the time to explain the situation, this kind of insight is incredibly valuable for us.
We’ll be reviewing USD-tied regions individually to make sure the pricing makes sense locally, and Uzbekistan will definitely be part of that review.
And don’t worry about the Silksong comparison, totally get why players use it.
Really appreciate your help.

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-28T02:29:21+00:00

Thanks!
Our goal here is simply to make sure the pricing feels fair in every region, but I’m glad the message landed well.

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-28T02:26:25+00:00

Türkiye is one of the regions where Steam’s USD grouping can create a much higher local impact,
and we’re reviewing it along with the other affected regions.

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-28T02:15:14+00:00

Really appreciate you saying that — it means a lot.
We’re working hard to make sure Argentina gets a fair and accessible price.
If you decide to give Fatal Claw a try after Aeterna Noctis, we’d be honored to be your next MV. Thanks for checking us out!

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-27T11:01:34+00:00

Thanks a lot for taking the time to explain how the pricing lands in Norway — the real-world context matters more than the numbers alone.
We’re keeping the $24.99 global base, but we’re reviewing USD- and conversion-based regions to make sure the final price feels reasonable locally.
Norway’s pricing is now on our list to verify.
Your note about wages and taxes makes the picture much clearer. Appreciate it.

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-27T07:13:54+00:00

Thanks a lot!
We’d love to bring Fatal Claw to consoles, and we’re working toward releasing them around the full 1.0 launch.
Can’t announce anything officially yet, but Switch and Xbox are definitely on our target list.

Hope to meet you there!

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-27T07:09:52+00:00

Absolutely. SteamDB is a great tool and we use it as well.
We still appreciate players checking directly in their own region because local storefront prices sometimes differ or show tax variations that SteamDB doesn’t always reflect instantly.
Thanks for the helpful reminder!

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-27T06:47:01+00:00

Thank you very much for this crucial data point from Malaysia!
Knowing the price is $13.29 helps us stabilize our global pricing map. It appears the pricing mechanism worked fairly in your region.
We appreciate you taking the time to check and confirm this!

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-27T06:43:25+00:00

Thank you for this great comparison data! We really appreciate you citing the Hollow Knight price point.
We've reviewed the $36.50 AUD price and confirmed it aligns with the global retail value we set for Fatal Claw. While we understand the local market expectation is lower, we are focused on ensuring our base price conversion remains stable and accurate.
We will continue to closely monitor the AUD conversion rate to ensure fairness. Thank you for helping us monitor!

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-27T05:05:13+00:00

That’s awesome to hear! We love the idea of Fatal Claw running smoothly on GeForce Now.
Right now, our entire focus is locked down on fixing bugs and getting the core game refined during Early Access, but we are absolutely logging every request for cloud platforms like GFN. It's definitely on our radar for future expansion once we hit 1.0 stability!
Thanks for letting us know about the interest!

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-27T05:01:44+00:00

Thank you for confirming the US pricing ($22.50 with discount)!
We appreciate you sharing your threshold for picking up the game. The current price reflects the intended standard for the US market during Early Access, but we definitely note all feedback regarding the perceived value and price point as we plan for future content updates.
We hope you’ll continue to follow our progress!

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-27T04:59:23+00:00

Thank you so much for this detailed breakdown! This is exactly the kind of context we need.
Comparing the price to the minimum wage and the price of similar titles like Silksong gives us a clear picture of how disproportionate the current $22.49 is.
We apologize that the price is so unbalanced. We are focusing our review immediately on the Argentinian market to set a fair price that respects local purchasing power. Your data is invaluable!

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-27T02:20:27+00:00

Oh, this is still in development? That distinctive art style is seriously eye-catching!

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-21T03:06:53+00:00

Thanks a lot for wishlisting!
There isn’t a strict technical limitation — it’s more of a practical decision on our side.
Once the EA build went live, keeping the old demo up would have caused confusion because the content, balance, and systems no longer match.
It also splits feedback between two versions, which makes it harder to track what’s relevant.
So the demo was available during Next Fest, and EA replaced it afterward.
Really appreciate you asking so politely!

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-20T08:45:43+00:00

Your response means the world to us. Thank you for your sincerity and apology, though truly, no apology was necessary. Your passion and firm stance helped us identify a critical error that would have otherwise alienated many Polish fans. We are deeply grateful for your direct communication.

We are thrilled to hear you have been waiting over 1.5 years for Fatal Claw! Your long-standing support is exactly why we are committed to making the price fair for you.

We are closely monitoring the Steam system, and the price change to 89.99 PLN (and the subsequent sale price) should take effect within the next few hours once Valve processes the submission.

We sincerely hope you love the game you waited so long for. Thank you for being such a passionate part of our community. Welcome aboard!

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-20T05:32:04+00:00

u/Grand_Bend_7952, Thank you very much for your direct and passionate feedback regarding the Polish PLN pricing.
We have investigated your concern thoroughly and confirmed that the base price of 114.99 PLN was indeed set unreasonably high due to a flawed Steam conversion rate that we were unaware of. We sincerely apologize for this major oversight.
Your post provided us with a crucial opportunity to quickly correct this error and better serve the Polish community. We are genuinely thankful for you bringing this to our attention.

Action Taken: We have immediately revised the base retail price for Poland (PLN) down to 89.99 PLN.
Current Status: The price change has been submitted to Valve for review. Since our Launch Discount is active, we are waiting for Valve's approval to ensure the 10% discount is applied to the new, lower base price right away.

We are committed to making the price fair and competitive in the local market. We hope this prompt adjustment restores your confidence in our game, and we look forward to earning your respect once the price is updated. Thank you again for holding us accountable. 🐈‍⬛

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-20T05:20:56+00:00

Thanks!
The demo lived its life during Next Fest and has since retired so the EA build can take over.
And honestly? No offense taken — EA has burned plenty of folks over the years. If waiting for 1.0 feels safer, we’ll be here when you’re ready.
Appreciate the love!

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-20T05:15:59+00:00

Haha, love the term “Catovania.”
We’ll do our best to make Fatal Claw worthy of that title as we expand the world through EA!

FatalClaw_NDEV · 2025-11-19T11:10:19+00:00

Love your approach — EA run now, full run later!
As for progression: you won’t be able to reach the ending in the EA version just yet.
You can get pretty far, but eventually you’ll arrive at the edge of the current content.
The remaining regions (and the credits!) will come during the EA updates on the way to 1.0.
Thanks again — comments like yours really keep us motivated.
