Hey! I just wanted to let everybody know that we are developing a Linux compatible Tactical JRPG called - Thermidor.

Check out some screenshots!









Cheers ^^

Good luck! I sure would love a nice JRPG, tactical or otherwise. The screenies look nice enough.

Anything else you can tell us about the game? Are you close to release? What's it like when you're not in a fight? Surely there's more to it than turn-based tactical battles against bearded soldiers... :)

Looks like something I would enjoy. Are you planning a DRM free version ?

Thank you!
We have started developing Thermidor less than a year ago, and we probably have another year until we can complete it.
Which is why we have decided to go with crowdfunding, and try to get some extra help financing the game.
The story line is very immersive and is being written by a very talented scenario writer as we speak!
It's going to be a proper game with enough levels to keep you busy for many hours.

If you back the game, you can get a beta of the game, a fast access version, plus lots of goodies!

Here are some concept art images of the Thermidor's characters (:
What do you think?




















By the way, I haven't introduced myself properly yet...
My name is Ron J. Ward, and I am (amongst other things) the house composer and sound designer at HyperDevbox Japan.
Yoroshiku!

But does that get me the game from a DRM source such as Steam or DRM free such as GOG ? How will one download the game once it is done ?

Well, for the fast-track or Beta versions, we will send a link to the file or send it directly to the backers. but once the game is out, it will be available to purchase through either Steam or GOG.
There is still a long way until the game is complete and released, so we are not yet sure about all the details, and right now we are just trying to focus on making this game the best we can.

If you can get it on GOG i'd be a happy man. Good luck to you.

This looks good! The premise is interesting for a JRPG though. Isn't it a bit western in nature?

Thank you!
Yes, the idea is to make the game, which is in essence a Japanese RPG, with some Western influences (the art and gameplay).

Ah! I love Jrpgs and the concepts and screenshots look great definitely keeping an eye on this.
