New feature implemented! & Twitch campaign underway!
[Implementation of !]
Not a stage update, but perhaps one of the most important features ever implemented, .
This can be activated by pressing at the start of the stage, or by pressing Shift+Home, and allows you to load the key unlocking information from another saved data.
(Think of "ghost replay" in racing or action games.)
When replaying a large stage after a long time has passed, or when replaying a stage that was once game over, it is often easy to forget how the game was played before.
With , players will be able to play more comfortably, more efficiently, and with greater sophistication.
(I think it will probably increase the comfort level of the game by a factor of 1.5~2.0. ......)
We have only been able to load key usage information at this time, but in the future we plan to be able to load Nexus medal and orb usage information as well.
(It may be a long time before we can do that...)
[New DLC price reduction campaign by Twitch is underway!]

TacticalNexus is not a profit game, but thankfully we have received requests from players who want to make donations to Team-Nexus, so we have set up a Twitch channel where you can send subscribe(Bits).
We are currently broadcasting our work on Twitch about a few times a week.
(We will probably broadcast less frequently in early January.)
At first, we were thinking of a service such as "offering free DLC to players who donate a certain amount of money" (we were thinking of a crowdfunding or Kickstarter-like system).
However, we found out that we can't reward individuals for donations and bids, as that would violate our terms of service.
Now, TacticalNexus has set the price of the game extremely high for the time being so that subsequent developers can make money, but currently TacticalNexus is already far more expensive than a full-priced game.
In other words, it seems to me that we have already created the environment we wanted to create, where it is difficult for new players to buy the game, and where subsequent developers can sell TacticalNexus-like games and not cause competition with TacticalNexus.
And I'm sure most of the players, of whom there are more than a few, who have already played the game for thousands of hours, will continue to buy the game, whether the DLC is expensive or inexpensive.
In other words, the pricing of new DLC, which is inherently difficult to beat if you haven't bought the previous DLC, makes no sense for either the player or the developer, Team-Nexus.
Therefore, we have decided to implement the following campaign for the Chapter-8 and Chapter-9 DLCs.
(For subscriptions, etc., we will add 100 bits per dollar, excluding margin and withholding.
Chapter-8 DLC will be released when Chapter8-3 is completed)
1,000 Bits - Chapter-8 DLC: 10% OFF
10,000 Bits - Chapter-8 DLC: 20% OFF
50,000 Bits - Chapter-8 DLC: 30% OFF
100,000 Bits - Chapter-8 DLC: 40% OFF
200,000 Bits - Chapter-8 DLC: 50% OFF
300,000 Bits - Chapter-8 DLC: 60% OFF
400,000 Bits - Chapter-8 DLC: 70% OFF
500,000 Bits - Chapter-8 DLC: 80% OFF
700,000 Bits - Chapter-8 DLC: 90% OFF
1,000,000 Bits - Chapter-8 DLC: 100% OFF
2,000,000 Bits - + Chapter-9 DLC:100% OFF
I have sent an inquiry after checking the terms and conditions of Twitch, etc., and have received a response that these promotions are "at your own risk".
If this campaign is deemed a violation of the terms and conditions and your Twitch account is banned or stripped of monetization, the amount of bits/subscriptions sent up to that point will be applied.
(The DLC reduction will remain in effect even if the amount is refunded due to a violation of the terms and conditions and not remitted to us.)
Please note that this is only a system designed to "reward one player for making a donation, which will be returned to another player.
Please do not force us to bitz or subscribe.
(If there are no problems with the continuation of this campaign and it is not extremely unpopular, we will continue to hold this campaign after Chapter-9)
