Is this game only going to be for steam? I hope that there will be a stand alone copy for windows.

2019-05-23 19:20:40

umm, steam, is, for windows...

2019-05-23 20:13:50

Yeah, but as you know, it is harder for people to get games from there.
At least, thanks to you, I have an account so I can get them if needed.

We are trying to work with Valve on making Steam more accessible as we are aware that it is not the best to use. If you wanted to send more specific accounts of your difficulties with Steam to [email protected] that would be super helpful.

We are also doing our best to put together a stand alone download. Please bear with us on this front as it will require us crafting some method of authentication and/or verification for buyers. Ideally, we'll be able to release with both, but there's a chance that the standalone may arrive slightly later. As usual, we will keep you posted.

Angel - The Vale is playable with keyboard in case you don't get a controler (given our use of haptic feedback though, I would say it is preferred)

We have yet to announce a price, but I promise it won't break your wallet.

I saw the beta was playable with the keyboard, but I had the ockasion to play with an x-box one controler at my cousin and it was more fun that way.

I'm super excited for this.

This, Sounds, Fucking Amazing. almost as good as a heros call and if there is feeback with a controller. even better! I'm stoked. I hope there's room for expansions like online play or some such.

2019-05-24 15:56:42

wooooooooooow, I'm too excited to try this out.
I didn't try it's beta, due to windows 32's issue with the game, it isn't compatible with it.

2019-05-24 16:42:57

Great news. Looking forward to having a new game to play. I didn’t have such a smooth experience with the beta but I did enjoy the game play.

Oh sweet! I am looking forward to this game. I played the demo, and it got me hooked.

@Fallingsquirrel
Have you considered itch.io as a secondary distribution platform?  It's quite accessible for screen reader users.  There is also Guidedog Games if itch.io doesn't have good enough authentication, that would save you from doing your own, and it's inherently and permanently accessible for us.

I would stay away from GTG and everything similar, as that means every game created using them methods are online based.
Only my opinion though

Though our eyes may fail, our ears prevail!

Hey there falling squirl.
I personally loved playing the game's beta and enjoyed the stuff that happens. Good job on creating this. Can't wait.

Yeah true, if there is any way to avoid the always connected requirement I'd prefer it, but I'm almost certain they'd have done something that also required it, as it's really the most sure fire bet for them unfortunately.

Awesome!!!!!

hi I got message from Falling Squirrel
"Come play The Vale this weekend!

From July 26th - July 28th Falling Squirrel will be  at ConBravo in Hamilton, Ontario with a number of other great indie developers. Come on out and play some games and enjoy the 10th anniversary of a fantastic geeky convention.

You can grab tickets and  find out more about ConBravo at this link

We really hope to see you there - but even if you can't make it we'll be making another appearance later in the summer at PAX West in Seatltle. We'll send out an e-mail about that a few weeks from now.

Really hope we can see you there and thanks for your continued support!"
