Congrats!

About the screenshot, love the idea of an urban stage. You could put in a Taxi rushing by. But the grey structure like a bridge going to the front of a house looks kind of akward.

Also I would maybe make the road black asphalt, since the buildings around and the stones on the side are also light grey.

Ah, it's just a pre-pre-pre-alpha. We had one of our video-meetings last night and the stage now looks completely different. 3D elements were not even properly put together there yet

Can I pre-oder if I can only pay via bank transfer?

You can pre-order with Paypal or credit card (via safe payment platform) only.

Is there any other indie dev / publisher accepting bank tranfers? :\

Nur indirekt: Wenn man ein PayPal-Konto eröffnet, kann man dort statt einer Kreditkarte auch seine Bankdaten hinterlegen und mit Lastschrift zahlen.

Yeah, I dont want spend 3% for nothing. Thats what Paypal/CC take from the consumer price. Good Online Shops reward that with an equal discount. Since you cant get interests for your money, its a good way to get it from another side ^^.

Btw. How long is that preorder open? Due to the Nintendo Switch + Games. Im kinda short this month. But this game looks kinda interesting. Another question is: Does the regular version works on PAL Dreamcasts too? PAL Versions seems kinda short stock, werent we the largest market? I hope its just a gimmick for collectors...

Yes you do, its calculated within the prices. CC/Paypal takes 3% and EC takes 3‰. There you can argue with me as much you want. It wont change the facts. I am accountant, I know my numbers ;-p.
As I stated, good shops discount EC payment. Sometimes you have to bear extra costs and mostly its hidden inside the prices. But this doesnt means they arent there.

@hombre

It would be nice if you can seal the PAL version before shipping out - but please no shrinkwrap

No, probably not. It is just a strange German habit that quite a lot of people here do not want anything to o with credit cards and PayPal. So much that the German Kickstarter exclusively allows bank transfer payments.

Of course, the Germans ones, like Hucast and redspotgames.

Uh... I'm not sure I understand what the controversy is. Have any of you tried to use our credit card payment? Besides being (obviously) secure, you help us a bit more as we don't have to pay Paypal's fee. Also, we're spaniards, you know, it's not like you're putting your credit card details in a shady server in Yemen or anything...

About the PAL edition, OF COURSE all copies including those will be sealed!



EDIT: Why someone would prefer a bank transfer with no security of refund or possibility of dispute completely elludes me, but I'll assume it's a german thing

Need some extra motivation to pre-order Xenocider for Dreamcast? How about an exclusive poster?

Jupp, it's a pretty uniquely German thing, afaik; amazon and countless other companies even grant us Krauts the possibility of paying via bank-account-transfer after u received ur item; we call it "Rechnungskauf" (="bill-payment"), just to give u an odd example of the "seriousness" o' that issue

In the case of "supporting-acts" during the process of development (or before it starts), f.i. via kickstarter, that system wouldn't make any sense, of course...

They unfortunately left out that "strange German habit" in this song



Me personally, i also suffer from that "strange Germ(an)-disease" (höhö *röchel* ) of not wanting a credit card near me (nor would i ever establish a pp-account, never... i have enough games in stock to neglect this company).

So, i never "kickstart" or anything like that (i'm surviving it).
However: Wish ur project (and you&team personally) the very best and a huge success!

Night-time-idea-edit: why not think "outside the box" and grant the opportunity to pay via amazon-e-account-codes (Riemann could physically buy them in any bigger store)? I guess/just assume, that u meet huge parts of ur equipment-needs there, as most of the people do...

Realise that they are a very small team and probably have their hands full already getting the game ready. Wasting extra time to support an "arcane" payment model for just a few additional customers (if any) from one specific country makes absolutely no sense. It would be nice, sure, but let's be realistic. The potentially added sales would in no way compensate for the time and energy spent on this.

Well, so much to advantages of the IBAN/BIC system ...

To pseudogilgamesh: Awful video.

Maybe we can focus on this video...

Uh... I'm sorry, did you get offended? I thought it was obvious that I was kidding...

We simply offer the payment methods that offer any kind of security for the buyer. Also, wouldn't you have to pay a higher commission for an international transfer?

We are open to accepting bank transfers too, but are you guys really willing to pay the higher commission for an international transfer???
