I can't tell for sure...but it looks, imo, like they've delayed the release as an anti-soap effort.

[Sirus]

Oh goddammit. Is there anyone out there who isn't a foaming-mouth reactionary? Perhaps a little strongly-worded.

Unless you mean that Carpe Fulgar has a moral objection to hand soap. Cause that would be funny.

[Bluerobin]

So first, this wasn't delayed as an anti-SOPA effort, they're just part of the group blacking out for today only. Also, yes, that was strongly worded; Americans (including myself in here, even though I'm not technically American) need a really swift kick to actually take any sort of political action, and having a bunch of your favorite websites inaccessible for part of one day is barely enough for a lot of people.

Anyway, last I heard was a forum post saying it's delayed a week: http://www.carpefulgur.com/forum/index.php?topic=1963.msg8962#msg8962
Also at that link is them saying it's going to be 20USD max.

bump

shameless propaganda on their website...http://www.carpefulgur.com/

Even so, still looking forward to Fortune Summoner!

Shameless propaganda eh? So you're saying it is completely skewed to support freedom of expression on the internet?

They've also lowered the price by $5 it looks like for the delayed release, that ain't bad.

[Sirus]

Uh, yeah, it's propaganda, or close enough for the term to apply. It's also far more annoying than anything and not remotely creative.

At least we get a discount for the delay, so whatever.

[Tilla]

Ultimately I guess it doesn't matter whether it's propaganda or not: the delay is unrelated to SOPA looking at the post there. I did notice some problems in the demo with things untranslated so I imagine it's some quick extra polish on the translation. Makes perfect sense to me.

[Sirus]

I also noticed some buggy translation, especially on the capsule machine. If that's the reason for the delay, fine.

[Sirus]

Another delay! Noooooo....

On the other hand, price has been dropped to $20, on sale for $15 for the first week. I can't be the only one checking Steam every other day for signs of this, right?

[Neonivek]

You can always imagine it as a 40 year old with stunted growth. Throws a whoooole new spin on things.

Look this isn't Digikarat

[Johuotar]

Ahh Fortune summoners. I have expected thee. Rolling my fingers until release. I played the japanese demo, so I don't have to try theirs.

[Bluerobin]

Hahaha "And so it has come to pass that we failed to yet again delay the game."

Looks like it's out. Just saw it on Steam, looks like it's something I'd actually like. Don't really know why I'm surprised, but yeah.

[Sirus]

Yeah! Finally released! Can't wait to see how the story develops.

[JoshuaFH]

You know what, I didn't know this was related to Carpe Fulgur at all. I really should have known, because every time I start up the game, I immediately think of Recettear.

I'm just loving this game so much right now. I think I'm approaching the endgame right now, and there's so much I love right now. There's a few things here and there that I think aren't great, but the overall experience is just fantastic.

[Sirus]

I'm currently stuck, and hoping that someone could help.

I have the first crest from the little Wind Temple, and now Sana is sick. I can't figure out what to do, though I've gone all the way to the loch, discovered that the tower needs a key to open, and have been through a sort of mini-dungeon that you access on the other side of the windmill town (I can't remember the name of the town). The mini-dungeon was filled with very annoying kangaroo enemies, I spent a small fortune on healing items, and I finally made it to a stand similar to the one in the Wind Temple, but without a crest. Now I'm back in the windmill town. I just need a hint, because at this rate I'm going to hit max level soon and I've been doing it without a single ally. I'm never gonna take Healing Water for granted again, because damn.

I'm presuming you haven't unlocked the dungeon proper JUST YET. Let's see if I can accurately recall from memory what you need to do.

Go through the path, past the Inn, the one with the Kangaroo enemies. Go to the area with the moving platforms, and get through that area to get to a cave room that has water on both sides and four movable blocks. Push all the blocks to the right, into the water, and they'll form a bridge that's JUST long enough to make the jump to the other side, giving you access to the right path to 1) a lever that gives opens a shortcut passage to the town, and 2) the entrance to the dungeon proper.
