[h1]"Lend a hand, or chop one off..."[/h1] [h3]After 6 years of development, [b]Repella Fella[/b] is now LIVE!![/h3] Hooray! But what happens next? Well, assuming a sequel is viable - quite a lot! First, let's go over some stats and random facts about the game: [list] [*] The game consists of [b]649 animation files[/b]... [*] ...with a combined length of [b]6 hours[/b], 3 minutes, and 59 seconds [*] There are [b]over 90[/b] paid voice actors [*] [b]Thousands of lines of dialogue[/b] (at least 5,000, but likely double that. Maybe triple? I really can't be bothered counting.) [*] Repella Fella was featured in the [url=https://aus.paxsite.com/en-us/features/indie-showcase/2022-winners.html]AUS Indie Showcase at PAX 2022[/url] (Melbourne) [*] [b]Jay Anthony Franke[/b] (JCDenton from the original Deus Ex) voices an American character [*] [b]Kenjamin Lafayette[/b] returns as the voice of [url=https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/130495]Ray[/url] [*] A [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2183010/Repella_Fella_Prologue/]free Prologue[/url] released on Steam (with [b]100% positive[/b] rating after 77 reviews!) [/list] A little about Repella Fella and the plan moving forward: [previewyoutube=9KNPidJBhSw;full][/previewyoutube] [h3]Global Voting Period[/h3] Repella Fella's launch will featuring a [b]voting period of 2 months[/b]. This voting period is a designated time when all players can cast their votes to [b]determine how the sequel begins[/b]. Think of Deus Ex: Human Revolution. There were four endings, you picked one, but the canon endings ends up being something you had no say in. It always felt to me like, "what's the point?" Here, you're given some voting power for the sequel and what is canon. I have more than enough ideas to expand on any one of these final three options!

You finish the game (on Steam), you make you choice, and an achievement unlocks. [u]The choice with the most achievements decides where we all go from here[/u]. Don't miss your opportunity to have a say in this stories trajectory moving forward! Players have from [b]June 5th[/b] until [b]August 5th 2023[/b] to cast their votes. ([i]It is recommend you only vote once during this period[/i]). Regardless of which ending has the most votes, all of your choices will carry over. [h3]How about a sequel?[/h3] A sequel will depend on two things: interest and viability. If people enjoy Repella Fella, I'm more than happy to continue with a sequel, but I'll also need to be able to pay the bills, as well as voice actors for their work. It isn't cheap. I'll gauge interest by looking at the number of players and user reviews, and I'll determine viability by seeing how much money I can make from selling the game. A pretty simple equation! Plus that will give everyone time to cast their votes before I dive fully into any future sequel planning. [h3]Can I follow updates somewhere?[/h3] You can follow [url=https://misadventurous.games/blog/]my blog[/url], which includes useful links for players who are feeling a little light on spending money at the moment 💸 I'm not a big social media person. Updates will likely only be found on [url=https://twitter.com/misadventurousg]twitter[/url] or my [url=https://discord.gg/46mWmEAddy]Discord[/url]. If you need to get in touch, abuse me or send me death threats; you can send an [url=phill@phill.com.au]email[/url] or contact me via the game's [url=https://steamcommunity.com/app/1008860/discussions/]Steam discussion forum[/url]. [h3]What else?[/h3] I dunno. My brain's cooked. I can't believe it's finally done. I'm going to do something else while I wait for this to succeed or fail. Either way, [b]I finally made a Steam game[/b]. Enjoy Repella Fella!
