Mysterious Song: Release Is Pending
« on: March 02, 2007, 09:46:25 PM »
For all those looking forward to the release of Mysterious Song, I'm pleased to announce that its release will be rather soon. The engine underwent some code rewrites, new tiles are being added now, and the long-awaited cutscenes are finally coming together. A never-before-seen area is being added as well.

The long delays in the production of the game are mostly my fault, as I've not had a lot of free time over the past months. But things are different now.

This is great!  It's been a significant dry spell since the last Turbo RPG.  I'm also hoping this will mean we can look forward to your game developement projects as well!
The Turbo was Dual Core when Dual Core wasn't cool . . .

I think you guys will be much more pleased with the new tiles lord_cack has made :) .

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

^^ Awesome.  I'd be all over that.  Will the commercial version be on pressed CDs?  :D (or CDRs?  :cry:)

Yes, they will be professionally pressed CDs, complete with booklet and cover art. Depending on the time it takes to complete the game, it may even carry a UPC.

Glad to here it. I've been dying to actually play a frozen Utopia game.

Keranu said that a commercial release would come after the download. Any idea of the time frame?

I'd rather wait to play the commercial version.

Any plans to release screenshots of your fabulous super secret double probation hinted at in development PC Engine game anytime soon?

While that game is playable, and a lot of the graphics are done, no - no screenshots yet.

The super secret game won't see any screenshots until the game is actually released, as far as I know :) . However if you do keep an open eye, you might be able to discover a few hints and secrets about the project. I won't say anything about the secret project, but I think we got a really fun game on our hands.
