@JohnnyMind It has a 20% discount that runs till release and then an owners discount set for two weeks up to release. So, anyone who owns NAIRI: Tower of Shirin will be eligible for the latter if they didn’t take advantage of the pre-order.

@JohnnyMind The first game took a lot of people by surprise as to how good it was. I know the HBS team had quite a lot of excited fans submitting fan art etc as the game became popular!

We hope that the second of the series finds the fans of the original; especially with visibility being so difficult to achieve on the digital stores now.

@AngelSlayer in a weird stroke of coincidence, it came out three days before Camp on PC.

@iNintendo Will have to look into it. Not sure of what promotions are coming up on the latter part of this year!

@Bunkerneath Hello! Thank you for the kind words. The game is the sequel to the previously released Sunshine Manor. The two games are going to be released physically by Premium Edition.

@ChessboardMan - both are genuinely great in their own, unique bloody way.

🐶

@Sisilly_G There will be a retail version from ININ, too.

If any of you are horror fans, we have a physical coming out by Premium Edition and for the artwork, we had Graham Humphreys design something spectacular. Honestly, I was amazed when I found out some of the post art he's done for movies over the years - so many of my all time favourites!

Back and forth from Days Gone on my PS4 and HyperParasite on Switch.

@Kilroy my pleasure. We’ve had so many comparisons of the game, like Broforce meets Enter the Gungeon and Binding of Isaac meets Kirby!

@rushiosan Valid point, but please do check out the Steam store reviews. It's a solid, addictive and very slick game. Great soundtrack, too!

@Kilroy We teamed up with Qubic to push the game to a wider audience on Switch. It's a great game, check out the Steam store reviews.

The reviewer is playing an old version of the game here and hasn't updated to the most recent version. A hint system HAS been introduced into story mode and play has been tweaked.

@SwitchForce sorry? I was just saying to you that NA isn’t planned for a physical right now.

@BensonUii Misinformation? I’m co-publisher of the game...

@XenoShaun believe me mate, I was gutted when we faced the realisation that we couldn't deliver the parity of release that we strived for. But at the end of the day, it's out of our control and hope that everyone understands and, more importantly, enjoys the game.

@DockEllisD For Famitsu, that's a solid score. They're a super, super critical outlet.

@SwitchForce Amazon US don't carry the game. No Switch physical planned outside of Asia right now.

@Steel76 - respectfully, the game has been continually patched and updated since release on Steam and is on-going. CBG and HPG are tiny, tiny teams and we're working around the clock to iron out the issues experienced by early players. Please ensure that your copy is up to date.

@Hatch - release dates are out of our control. We tried to get release parity but you have to understand that the processing speed of updates and patches varies from platform to platform. We opted to delay the Switch release so that the major were taken care of before the public laid hands on the game.

@Joekun hello. As far as we know, the Japanese publisher is still on track.

I’m surprised you guys haven’t jumped on it. The game’s art is absolutely adorable and the story is really quite captivating.

@Rodan2000 you got it. I genuinely hope you guys love the game as much as I do!

@Rodan2000 no worries. I’m always happy to pop in when it’s a game we’re doing PR on or helping publish. Transparency is very important to us.

Right now we have a date, but until it’s confirmed it’s not something we can publicly share.

@BensonUii no plans on a physical outside of Asia right now I’m afraid, sorry.

@Rodan2000 You have to understand that patches on Steam are pretty much instantly approved. Xbox and PlayStation there’s an approval system, but on Switch it takes the longest. I obviously can’t go into full details here, but all of what’s been addressed in the other versions have been sorted for Switch, too.

@BensonUii 7,7,8,7.

Thanks for all the kind words guys. Chris has been pulling incredibly long days trying to rectify all of the performance and errors that have been found post original submission for release. Believe me when I say that it wasn’t an easy decision to make, but we want the game to be the very best it can be for Maddi and our fans.

@Spiders Believe me when I say, it wasn't an easy decision for the team to make. But we promised that the game would be fall!

@Mordridakon The game is based on the developer's daughter, who's under 10. It'd be a bit... weird, if that did happen.

@Fake-E-Lee Our game, in story mode, is more akin to a metroidvania - NOT G'NG. Try out the old demo build on Steam to give yourself a bit of an understanding of how BPM plays.

There is an arcade mode that is more like the aforementioned title, though.

@YANDMAN - wow, that's news to me and it's me organising this side of things. To my knowledge, we're only releasing Switch physical in Asia.

@Stargazer Lots of competition, sure. But quality always sells. 👍

@Stargazer won’t be going into sale for a good while, believe me.

@Yorumi massively appreciate you saying that. Battle Princess Madelyn and NAIRI: Tower of Shirin are two games that my team and I took to Kickstarter, through to release with the developers. It’s something we really, really wanted to address. Anything with the Hound Picked Games tag WILL communicate and WILL deliver.

@adh56 no sir. We’re only working with LRG on one run for PS4, no other titles.

@OptometristLime long day, but rest assured. The visuals you see are what you will experience playing the title. The artist of the game actually designed our logo. 🐶

@OptometristLime hello. This is a visual novel / point and click adventure. The visuals you see in the video ARE the game. 🐶

@OorWullie I love how people judge without even giving the pre-alpha a whirl. We only take quality titles on at Hound Picked Games, I stand by this with HyperParasite, it’s a great title.

Guys, give it a go on Steam. It’s a cracking game, the visuals are purposefully ramped back in like an ode to PS One styled titles.

If you’re old enough to remember Smash TV, you’ll love this.

@Antraxx777 it’s a game that’s much, much better to look at in play. It’s a lot of fun.

@Jokerwolf I know, I'm part of the team;) But that is a pre-alpha, we released it back when we were looking to raise funds on the KS. You had me panicking that there had been a leak of a newer build!

@Pichuka97 We release information every month on the Kickstarter campaign and always push new teasers to press. ^_^

@Jokerwolf Which demo is that, Mr.J?

@John_Deacon Battle Princess Madelyn will have an equally tough as nails arcade mode. 💪

@GrailUK Honestly can’t stress enough that it’s changed since that early build. But it’ll give you an idea.

Guys remember, GnG was an arcade title. This isn’t, the story mode will take around ten hours to complete, and even then, it could take longer if you explore and go the whole completionist route.

@Tim_Vreeland Battle Princess Madelyn actually has Maldita cameos:) Gryzor actually has done the soundtrack, too.

@GrailUK Highly recommend looking st the super early build on Steam. The game has changed massively through development and is so much more than what quick assumption perceive it to be.

@therube I think Chris will be very pleased to read that, lovely words. Thank you:)

@spoony_tech - try the old pre-alpha on Steam. It'll give you an idea of feel. But Chris and the team have refined and honed the controls massively since then!

@OorWullie Rest assured, we'll have a date very soon. The Causal Bit team and ourselves are very much looking forward to you all getting your hands on the game!

@Olmectron - this is a follow up article. Maybe Damien would be so kind to link to the the previous piece?

@retro_player_22 We've worked very closely with the team and we both believe that it's essential to keep backers informed with every step of what's going on. After all, without you guys we wouldn't be here now!

I should've said a huge thank you to you all for your positive comments on Battle Princess Madelyn, from the Causal Bit Team and PR Hound team. Really, really looking forward to you guys getting your hands on this special game!

@GoldenGamer88 - it's called what it is because the game is dedicated to Chris's daughter;)
