BUYING THIS GAME MEANS A LOT TO IT’S DEVELOPMENT/DEVELOPER

If you can please purchase the full version and pay what you can. I do not have a steady income stream right now but I would like to put out a steady stream of updates. The PC I was using to develop the game and produce the music on has died and so my first goal is to buy a new PC. I am currently developing the game on a 4+ year old home theater PC that can barely run the game at 60 FPS. I am also using a 6+ year old MacBook Pro for work on the go. Neither of these can really be used for producing the style of music that I have been putting together for the game.

I not only need money to purchase a new PC but also to fund my life and the life of this game. I believe strongly in this game and I could really use your help right now. This title has been in development for less than a year and at no point have I worked anywhere close to full time on it. The difference between the Alpha/Jam version and the current build is ENORMOUS, not just visually but also under the hood. The editor has undergone massive changes which make testing and puzzle making faster but I have a limited amount of time I can spend on the game. Imagine if I could devote 40 hours a week to it’s development. Imagine having an update every month or even every week. Imagine if TheWzzard could pay an amazing pixel artist to really punch up the graphics. With enough support these things can happen.

I have never charged for a game before because it is not something I take lightly. Ruby & Majesty will likely span 3-4 Episodes depending on how big they turn out to be and if I have the resources to devote to it’s development the final version could be ready in a year. I’ve already show that I can deliver quite a lot in considerably less time. Otherwise I do not know how much time it will take. I plan to tackle these funding goals step by step. The first goal is $1000 USD for a new PC. You can follow the progress on treasureteam.xyz. Thanks for your time!
