In 2009 game publisher Rockin’ Android brought over game developer Orange_Juice’s Suguri series for the PC from Japan and captured a strong niche following. Now Acceleration of Suguri X Edition has been adapted for the PS3. It is sure to please previous fans, but how will it hold up with brand new users?
8CN: Game publisher Rockin Android is in some hot water with fans today over the recent release of their latest game, Acceleration of Suguri. The game recently made its way through Steam's Greenlight process, and had been a part of Indie Royale, a Humble Bundle-esque operation sponsored by Desura.
According to many customers, Rockin Android promised Steam keys would be made available to anyone who purchased the game prior to the Greenlight approval, including those who received it as part of the Indie Royale package. Unfortunately, it now seems that Rockin Android is no longer honoring that promise, and have begun a campaign to delete any information regarding the guarantee.
Just complain to valve until A) he owns up to what he promised and or B) (with some sort of miracle) get valve to remove his game from steam/greenlight etc.
great way to piss off your costumers, i hope hes more friendly when delivering pizzas.
A tiny bit of success goes to a devs head and they start annoying the people who got them that success by refusing to honour what they promised...how amazingly dumb of them. When you've relied on a small number of passionate fans, it's not a good idea to screw those fans over.
Rockin’ Android are known for bringing a ton of awesome unique Japanese games to the West that would almost assuredly not get picked up and brought stateside. If you frequent our site you’ve probably seen our Cloudphobia review, also from Rockin’ Android. And as it was a unique Shoot-’em-Up (also known as a shmup) with some interesting game design choices, so too is the game we’re talking about today, Diadra Empty, developed by Frozen Orb.
Rockin’ Android has released 7 of their PC and PlayStation Network games onto the Amazon Indie Store. To commemorate this great launch they have even bundled 5 of their games for $9.99 until July 17th.
