Hello guardians. Today we’ll be discussing a most controversial topic among the Steam community: regional price adjustments. You might have been aware that price adjustments started taking place globally around July last year in order to avoid mass key purchasing at low prices. We initially did not want to increase our price as we felt like it was fair for everyone to be able to purchase their games at their regional price. But we’ve recently been witnessing a surge of purchase in certain regions that were not reflected in terms of player count in those regions, meaning we were directly being hit by mass-key-purchase (from shady retailers). We’re a small indie studio and Roboquest is the breadwinner for us. These low-purchase tactics are hurting both the game development and our ability to be making a living off our passion. As a result and after much consideration, we’re adjusting most of our regional prices. It wasn’t a light decision to make and we delayed it as much as possible, but we can’t any longer. We know it will be unfair for people in those regions and we’re sorry about this, but we hope you’ll understand our situation and why we have to take those actions. In the end, the retailers enabling the selling and the mass-purchasing of keys are responsible for this unhealthy situation. Prices have been adjusted across all regions starting now. It will not affect people who already purchased the game. We tried to be as transparent as possible as usual and we hope we managed to explain our situation to you. We will obviously continue to offer promotions and to participate in other sale events and we’re still hard at work on the 1.0.0 version of the game. We’re also cooking the next devblog to keep you all in touch with our latest efforts. Thank you for your understanding. The Roboquest Team RyseUp Studios
