    I just wanted to stop in and give everyone an update on our progress. We've had a bit of a delay cause by Apple being INCREDIBLY slow :mad:, but we've put the time to good use and added some really good polish to Guardian Saga. We expect to be able to submit really soon and the game should be released around July 11-13th.

    We're also working on a launch trailer, so we hope be able to show that you ya'll really soon!

    This game reminds me of dragon quest. I like it.

    This looks great. Really wanted an Ultima type clone which looks 'similar'. Theres a lot of good RPG's out there but i cant stand the 'cutesy' japanese graphics in many of them.

    Hope this is a huge world and pretty non-linear when it comes to quests. Looking forward to this

    Any announcements about expected price and file size? I'll need to do some resource management. Congratulations on nearing submission!
     
  5. Actually I would agree with the comments regarding the font. It does look too smooth in comparison to the rest of the game, a more retro-inspired pixellated font would suit the game much better.

    Other than that, it looks great!

    The download size is about 10MB, and the price will most likely be $1.99 ^_^

    Have you submitted this game yet? And if so, when do you plan to release it? Is there any chance that it will be released this week?

    That would be nice. :)

    I apologize for the lack of status updates!

    We've been on the phone with Apple every day, but for whatever reason, they still haven't gotten our dev license/contract paperwork finished. I wish I could give you all a specific date, but after this long fighting with Apple its really hard to say. I expect our date will get pushed back till at least the 19th.

    Hope ya'll will bare with us just a bit longer. I promise you the game will be worth it! ^_~

    Is this still coming July 27 (today)?

    So far no sign of it in NZ release; perhaps I'm too impatient
