Prometheus Wept: The new turn based RPG from the developer of Vigilantes

Backed. You guys are too close to fail :-)

Thank you vanedor! The Kickstarter has been a real nail biter.

The campaign's at 93% now, with 3 days to go. Fingers crossed!

Here's the second and final part of the play-through of the Drag. In the final part, armed with only a handgun, rubber bullets and melee weapons, you come under fire from a sniper. There's also a few minutes of extra detail on the story for act 1 near the end. If you've got any questions or feedback, let me know!

Congrats! It doesn't surprise me that someone like that would support the project.

I am surprised the project wasn't funded more easily, so good luck in getting over the line.

Hey Ripper. It was a great morale boost at a time I didn't feel great about the campaign. The difficulty in raising funded caught me off also - hopefully the 48 notice will get it there.

That's truly nice of Brian Fargo to gush like that and to chip in!! May you cross the finish line in good fashion.

With you on that - inXile helped me last time too by giving Vigilantes a mention on their Fig campaign for WL3. They're great guys.

Just had a quick look at the KS - currently five bucks short. I think you might get away with it!

Congrats on reaching the goal!

I had a dream last night that it got funded

Cheers! That was nerve shredding, really glad to have made it.

Yay on crossing the rubicon, well done!

Onward to Rome!

Congratulations on getting funded. Also yes it indeed is hard getting funded nowadays.

Thanks Couchpotato. Yeah, I noticed a couple of recent projects that didn't get funded. They weren't asking for much, and seemed decent quality.

Hi-

I hope you're having a nice Christmas! Here's the development log for Dec 2021.

To summarise:
- I've worked on the writing for the next two missions
- A healing manager, which makes healing outside combat more intuitive and less click heavy has been added
- A number of character models for the upcoming missions have been created
- Firearms automatically reload after combat
- Save games are now ordered by time and date
- A number of minor bugs have been fixed.


If you have any questions or feedback, please leave a comment and I'll get back to you!

All the best,
Daithi

Those look like some good and significant updates, thanks for keeping us up to date.

Hey Carnifex! Cheers - I'd really like for people playing the game to spend more time on the fun stuff, rather than doing repetitive tasks - the healing manager and auto reload take care of two of the biggest offenders at the moment. I really dislike when games waste player time with things like dozens (or even hundreds) of loot containers in an area, with nothing or very little in most of them.

…But…But…Breaking 600 barrels is SO much FUN!!

Regrettably I forgot to back this, but I'm glad it got funded. It is on my wishlist.
