About our sales plan
In terms of game pricing, we plan to do the following:
(I wanted to put these on Steam top page,
Steam seems to be prohibited from writing a specific currency unit on the top page.
Therefore, this table could not be placed on the top page.
Sorry for the inconvenience. )
Regarding the discount amount of all games sold, in principle, it will be reduced by 5% collectively every two months.
(However, this is not the case if you cannot pay extra immediately after the start of sales.
In one package, it seems that the price can be changed once a month or once every two months.)
Pricing is specifically as follows.
2020/ 1 80% Off
2020/ 3 75% Off
2020/ 5 70% Off
2020/ 7 65% Off
2020/ 9 60% Off
2020/11 55% Off
2021/ 1 50% Off
2021/ 3 45% Off
2021/ 5 40% Off
2021/ 7 35% Off
2021/ 9 30% Off
2021/11 25% Off
2022/ 1 20% Off
2022/ 3 15% Off
2022/ 5 10% Off
2022/ 7 5% Off
2022/ 9～ 0% Off
In other words, if you purchase all the content for this game,
Even the cheapest price (= if all content is purchased immediately after release) costs 300 $ in total,
If you buy all the content after 2022/9 when the discount ends, you will cost a total of $ 725.
This is an unusual price setting for indie game pricing.
We also think that the discount amount is quite unusual for existing games.
This is for the following reasons:
The reason this game is expensive is that it has a special background in its packaging.
Tactical Nexus is inspired by a game system called Tower of the Sorcerer(魔塔),
Tactical Nexus comes in 3 to 12 games in one package.
(In addition, the average volume increases as the Chapter progresses.)
And this game has a special game system called Nexus system.
To explain this system simply, if you clear one game in the package, the difficulty of other games will decrease.
The Nexus system is a system that greatly enhances game enthusiasm.
For example, if you now have a main package (Chapter-1 & Chapter-2) and purchase a new Chapter-3,
With the Nexus system, the game included in the main package also has room for further capture,
The possibility of completing "games that were recorded in the main package but were too difficult to complete" is increased.
This gives you room to play more than a few hundred hours of games each time you buy a package.
In addition, from Chapter-6 onwards, special items "Legacy" such as "Enhance the effect of specific items" will be available,
In addition, a play has been added that brings "Legacy" to game works from Chapter-1 to Chapter-5.
This allows both beginners and advanced players to play more than 1000 hours in a single package in the second half of the chapter.
For these systems, we wanted to include multiple games in one package.
As a result of multiple games from $ 5 to $ 25 per game in a single package, the price per package was extremely high.
And the reason why the discount amount of this game is abnormal is that the system of this game is a very unique system.
With the Nexus system described above, this game can be played for hundreds of hours in one package.
However, this game is still a minor genre game.
If you don't play it, you won't know the fun of this game.
(Also, since this game is a difficult game, the difference between likes and dislikes tends to be quite large depending on the person)
From mid-March to late June 2019, we had released a free online version of our country for as long as Chapter-1 for a limited time.
In three and a half months, 25% of players played the game for 50 hours and 16% of the players played the game for more than 100 hours.
As a percentage of play time, this was a very good result, but the game wasn't downloaded to too many players.
We analyzed on Steam for half a year, but not many games have introduced the "Tower of the sorcerer(魔塔)"' game system,
And,few games have introduced systems like the Nexus system.
Tactical Nexus is a game that will be updated for two years from 2019 to 2021.
And the Tactical Nexus system became popular,
When this system becomes known, if creators who make games of the same system appear,
We want to create a sequel 6 to 10 years later, even larger than Tactical Nexus, that introduces online systems (such as ranking systems).
(The programmers and game designers of this game are math professionals and are already in a position to release 2-4 games a month.)
For this reason, we thought we needed to promote this game system first,
Over the course of about three years, we want to make massive price cuts and increase the number of players.
And this game is very large,We believe that it will take about 5,000 to 12,000 hours to complete all games up to the Extra Chapter.
For this reason, we believe there may be a time lag of several months to several years before players can play and spread the game.
Because of these things, we don't want to "cut down after a while"
We decided to take the stance of "significant price reductions at the start of sales".
Regarding the key game system, this player has a very clear, polite and easy-to-understand review.
(Since it is written in polite sentences, it is easy to understand in any language just by using translation software.)
