Sequel Launch - PAX, Pricing & Discounts

With only a month left until Sometimes Always Monsters finally releases, we've had a few questions about pricing. We thought we'd take the opportunity to make the announcements now so that nobody feels left out or misses their chance to get the best deal.
Across all storefronts, Sometimes Always Monsters will be $19.99 USD

We’re offering Steam Key pre-orders at VagabondDog.com for $14.99 USD

During the first week of release, we will be offering a more moderate discount.

Of course, even if you're already set to get the game on April 2, 2020, it would help us a lot if you wishlisted the game before launch day. It's like blessing us with your algorithmic influence!

We're also really excited to announce that we'll be making an appearance at PAX East 2020 in Boston. Our setup will be located in the Indie Megabooth in booth #22040. Come by and say hello, grab some swag, and play the latest demo!



Finally, we've been posting some new screenshots on our Twitter. If you're just can't wait for release, hopefully some of these will help soothe the continuing agony of waiting.



Once again, we can't wait for the big day to finally arrive. April 2, 2020 is a lot closer than it seems, and we're thrilled that all of you are so excited to play the game.

Like what you've seen? Good.
We've been working really hard on it for a long time.

Consider adding Sometimes Always Monsters to your Steam Wishlist.
It'll remind you about release and discounts, as well as help us with some promotion.

Also, if you haven't already, consider Joining our Discord.
It's a pretty cool community, and we post news there regularly.

Anyway, it's back to working on the final touches and such for us. We're still an incredibly small team and this game's gotten way bigger than we ever really intended. Thanks for your support and we'll talk soon.

New Video: Will O'Neill on Writing

Greetings Vagabonds,
There's a new video on the YouTube channel today.
It features indie game and narrative maven, Will O'Neill.
https://youtu.be/0e70i9r8hvI
For those of you who aren't familiar with the man, Will O'Neill is another Toronto-born-RPG-Making-wordsmith who broke onto the scene circa PAX East 2014. He's been slinging verbs and sharpening adjectives across the industry ever since.

We are very fortunate to have him join Vagabond Dog as an Associate Writer to help develop an extensive series of unique vignette sequences that help define and expand the profiles of our bus friend characters in Sometimes Always Monsters. There's been one written for every possible pairing in the game, centralized on how the characters experience each other outside the purview of your influence.

Some other games Will has written for:
