Pre-orders open! Pier Solar Beta released!

[TulioAdriano]

Hello friends of Pier Solar.

I'm proud to announce that the Pier Solar Beta is released to public. We hope you enjoy playing the game as much as we enjoyed making it. Please note that it reflects the developments as they were in April/2008.

Along with the this Beta demo we want to announce the that the final release date has been pushed to December 24. The reason is that, unfortunately, Alex Landgren - one of our Graphic Designers - left the team. Since Alex didn't authorize our team to use the pixel art made by him, we have to rework many graphic items of our game, making it impossible to have all done and tested by October 29. We wish Alex good luck on his projects.

Now the moment many has been expecting: The pre-orders are finally open. Along with them a lot of news:

- Pier Solar will not come in MD and MCD separater versions anymore. Thanks to Fonzie's blasting technology, we'll be offering the MD version capable of playing the songs from the MCD if available. That will guarantee that all players have the same graphic experience, and the players with MCD can experience a Stereo near cd-quality sound.

- Pier Solar will be multi-language. Based on our message board polls we'll be offering 3 language packs: US Pack (EN, ES, PT); EU Pack (EN, FR, DE) and JP Pack (EN, JP). Note that the languages may vary depending on the availability of translators.

- We're selling Pier Solar on 2 editions: Pier Solar Classic and Pier Solar Posterity. Both editions will include: 64 Mega Cartridge, Mega/Sega CD disc for enhanced HiFi soundtrack, goodies, color booklet, a finely crafted clamshell box and a Pier Solar poster. The posterity pack is a way for people to donate to the project and help us to prepare the games for the posterity. Those who purchase the posterity pack will have their names displayed on the game credits and on the manual credits. We also might draw some names to take part into the story as a NPC.

Head now to the Pier Solar Website and pre-order yours!

GREAT! Finally the pre-orders are Open. I will pick Posterity USA Version (for the Spanish language) but i prefer the European box .

If you need help traslating it to Spanish , please contact me as i said months ago

Great Work!!!

Tomorrow in the morning expect payment for the posterity version, I'd get the USA one for Spanish as Kaos but I'm going to get the JP one, I hate USA boxes.

And, as Kaos said too, if you need any translation to Spanish ask me.

Well I've made my pre-order. Posterity pack of course Can't wait for Christmas now. Good luck with the rest of everything.

Edit: Still, it's a shame that you had to move back the release date.

I'm about to preorder the Posterity Package. What of the following fields of the order form will appear in the games credits?

- Name and family name?
- Nickname?
- Posterity name?
- Credit card number? (just kidding)

Or is it all of the above?

Hi there,
Just about to order the posterity pack and i'm wondering if any version of the game (Japanese, USA or European) work on my British (or American) mega-drive and mega cd?
Cheers,
Ethan

Here's another pre-order for a Posterity American-style release that won't eventually go to America, but to Spain, Europe. I prefer the European-style since I'm from Europe and in fact my collection is mostly European, but most importantly, I welcome a game in my mother tongue language. Won't be the first American-style game in my collection either.

I bet there's going to be a bunch of American copies heading to Spain and Portugal just because of featuring Spanish and Portuguese languages, while they are absent from the European release because of size constraints (I presume). It's going to be funny since usually (or at least, with the Spanish language) it's the other way around.

PD: I would also gladly help for the Spanish translation to be done (since it seems not definitive) if needed.

- Name and family name?
- Nickname?
- Posterity name?
- Credit card number? (just kidding)

Only the posterity name will be shown public (assuming its not an insult).

Thx
