quote from the source

there is more info and also a trailer of the game here , i think good news for the Megadrive fans :nod:

 

Thanks for the update but one of the main guys behind this game has his own post all about it in the Dev section of the board

hey! nice to know you :icon_bigg i will try for sure the link you gave, thank you!

 

Yes, it was Fonzie I was talking about . Nice to see that you have an official page up now as well :thumbsup:

Yakumo

 

Looks great so far. One question that I hope you won't find rude Fonz - is the team going to get a native English speaker to check through the dialogue to make sure it is up to scratch? And please don't make it 'hip' - I hate it when an RPG is translated and it sounds like a bunch of teens in the mall trying to out cool each other!

You know what I'm talkin' about dawg!

 

Got any screenshots or is still too early in development?

 

Everyone's been working really hard on the dialogue and we're proofreading it extensively. Plus I'm a native English speaker, and I've been helping gloss over it. No worries about an ebonics-laden RPG either.

Screens and other stuff can be found on the website: http://www.piersolar.com

 

The music is great :thumbsup:

 

totally agree, this game is looking awesome!

Hey all, just thought I'd give this thread an update as I haven't been here in forever. Pier Solar's development is coming along swimmingly and after an unfortunate delay we're back on track.

The website's been redesigned and we've started weekly updates (every Tuesday!) to keep everyone informed on our progress. Also if you stop by this coming Tuesday, you'll have a chance to win a free copy.

Thanks for your support all!

Would it be rude to ask what happened? My preorder's in and I don't mind waiting, just being nosy.

 

It's covered on our website. Basically we lost a member of the team and his work went with him.

 

It's looking very impressive. Graphically great, the sound on the demo was good and it looks like the sort of game I'd really enjoy.

As for the English, well there was the odd grammatical and spelling error on the demo. That said, if you want it to look like a Japanese RPG translated into English, then it is spot on for what you'd expect from a Japanese studio! ;-)

Losing members of the team can be a big blow. I'm glad you managed to resolve the issue, and look forward to the game's release!

 

Thanks for the kind words!

The text in the demo was written by a non-native speaker and was constructed fairly quickly, the current script has changed significantly and is in its second draft. All the little grammatical quirks will be fixed by the time of the game's release.

In the meantime, check out our most recent update for your chance to win a free copy of Pier Solar!

This looks like it will be a good game. I have linked to your site on a few different forums I use...Hopefully it will drum up some more interest.

Good luck with the project.
