go woke go broke
>>731434282>Rumors are that Mina has been giving out 20 dollar blowjobs behind a Target store in LA.who the fuck thought>yes this will save our company
>>731434282>Female MCIt's over.
>financial trouble for making nes ripoffsthey deserve it
I smell a disingenuous "we're doomed if you don't buy this!!!" strategy marketing campaign.
>>731434282Hey, it's the COSTCO in SANTA MONICA. That's a higher level of blowjob.
>>731434520Least deranged nintendiot.
>>731434392go mouse, no house
>>731434282They're 100% fuckedEven if the game is good, no way this is good enough to save them
they shouldn't be rewarded for overspending on a studio next to beverly hills and the beach
>>731434282furry chicks engaging in prostitution is my fetish
>>731434282kek these fucking retards thought they were actually making good games instead of having hit a lucky strike at a very opportune time
>>731434282I am hoping break.
>>731434282She gave twenty of them???
>>731434718Hey now.It was only 400k a year!For a minimum of 3 years. Ok sure, that was the entire kickstarter budget of Mina. But they deserved it.
>>731434282Shoulda put eyelashes on the mouse
Someone give me a QRD on the prostitution posting what did i miss
Gonna pirate it now. Took too long to come out (like OP)
>>731434282Cheesed to blow me
>>731434282Why did they move to california?
>>731434282Yacht Club doesn't mean to blow your budget on yachts!!
>>731435006They thought they would be successful after Shovel Knight came out in that one anime fighter.
>>731434282Hollow Knight was always a mediocre platformer that happened to come out during the mid 2010's indie Cuckstarter craze, I never understood the appeal.
>>731435134you know if they actually bought yachts, they'd have assets they could sell.
>>731434392>goHow long have they been working/losing money in California?
>>731434282>retards on /v/ say just make your own engine>dev making a 8-bit pixel gameboy game needs 8 years and a million dollars to make one 2D game>meanwhile 1 guy using an already made engine could make the same game in 1 year with $0 spent
>>731435186>Hollow Knightdon't worry anon, I also make that mistake sometimes
Can someone explain to me why /v/ is so fucking obsessed with this game failing? Do they think they were 'betrayed' that the company made this instead of Shovel Knight 2 or something?Is it just one schizo spamming?Why would you WANT a new game to be bad or mediocre?
>>731435373>Is it just one schizo spamming?yes, but I will still participate one way or the other
>>731434392Pandering to furries is a hack for free money.
>>731435373My ickstarter copy still hasn't delivered.They paid out 20k each to bail funds and other BLM organizations.Then they announced DX, still not released.3D SK shelved because they ran out of money somehow.
>>731435573So you want it to continue to not be delivered; and receive a bad game. Out of spite?
>>731434282It pisses me off how we get a billion 8bit inspired games and now have gotten several ps1 and n64 inspired games but hardly any Genesis or snes style platforms, rpgs or racing games. Now we're getting new GBC ganes which are basically 8 bit games. Incompetent retards.
>>731434282Mina was raped in the bone chilling winter of 2026
>>731435732but I do want my game?
>>731435373its marketing tactics
>>731434282This can't be true..
These threads aren't even about yachtclub or mina. It's just people crying over blm and california. And there is a thread up 24/7.
>>731434282Wtf are they doing with their money if the wildly succesful shovel knoght cant keep them afloat?They ported that shit to every console and it sold tons. Indie games still try to get the rights to reference shovel knight
>>731435997Last thread was 4 days ago though?
>>731436085They blew it on their California office.This isn't like even speculation after the delay announcement someone found them doing a Craigslist sale on their office furnishings.
>>731436085The plan?Making a new kickstarter.
>>731434282they should cht their losses and make a UE based Mina cumflation simulator VR game on steam developed by two koreans
>>731436198Specifically an LA office LOL
>>731434282>We need to break even on this>delays itIt can't be good to have it sitting this long, can it? Where the fuck is it?
>>731434689Choose rodent, become despodent
>>731436327Seriously, why would an indie studio rent there? Did they think they get to rub elbows with Microsoft and Apple or something?
>>731434282Maybe they should've made shovel knight 2
>>731436198>>731436327>>731436436That will be 20k a month for 3-10 years!Oh and you are paying your 16 employees the LA minimum of 60k a year... right?
>>731436331Even the mild criticism the demo got had them fill their britches. Don't forget they have to give the backers free copies, if they can't get new people interested they're toast.
>>731436085Paying a whole dev team for a decade costs money
How did that happens? It's fucking Shovel Knight, one of the OG indie titles.
>>73143665016???My math is saying yearly 1 200 000 operating costs.IF they are paying 60k a year and not more.
>>731436331>>731436676The demo's reception was mostly positive afaik. No idea what spooked them to indefinitely delay it.
>>731434282Does she do rimjobs?
>>731434569Look at the number of years between games. >>731436327Not just L.A. Possibly the most expensive part of the city. Not just near the ocean, but near an amusment park by the ocean, and near beverly hills and hollywood with a seaside view.
>>731436865Either the fact even despite the general praise it still was less than they were expecting or they have access to some sort of metric we just can't see. Someone suggested maybe they had their wishlist count drop as an example, but it could even be as simple as not as many downloads as they were planning.
>>7314352908 years to make a 2d engine is absurd, theres been some kind of catastrophic failure internally
>>731437154They should follow notch to dallas
>>731434282I love Shovel Knight and I didn't even know this game was in development or existed at all.
how come 5-10 japs nobodies could pump bunch of NES games left and right non-stop but ultra successful indies take 5 years to release a single fuckin game almost as simple while using current tech?
Lol
>>731435493but you still have to actually turn out a product

>>731435289They had a ton of success when they did go woke though? Shovel Knight was in Smash and they had a decade of success. Mina is the game bankrupting them and I don't know what is 'woke' about it. Shovel Knight had the gender option which is what I know people would sperg out about except that was even a backer incentive so it would have been retarded to scrap it because retards are seething.
>>731436797>>731436650They're paying more. You can't get a jeet in LA for $60k.I'd bet their average salary is at least $150k, plus benefits and other expenses. Let's be generous and say it's $150k per employee all in, though.Make bad decisions, lose business. A tale as old as time. like drinking terpentine
>>731437782not bad for a weekend project>>731437756well most of those games were barely a sprite swap from each other
blm dev
>>731437782eight years of dev time for thaaaaat???
>>731438062>if you wanna buy a good GameboyFuck off retard :D
>>731434282Deserved for shitting up everything with that shovel faggot without invitation
post mouse to sex?
>>731438089You're scrambling to find a reason to not answer why I asked when they moved to a money sinkhole like California, but if you really want to know all it took was that one single time they said, "we're giving thousands of dollars that you gave us to put criminals back on the streets". People seem to think that a game has to be woke and not the devs.
>>731438568sexual sex the mouse
>>731436763no game output for a decade
>>731439151But enough about heartbound
>>731434282I will buy the game because I enjoyed Shovel Knight a lot and it looks like an interesting game.
>Mina the Hollower>Hollows out the devs budget
>>731436763They made one decent game, and milked it for all it's worth. It was going to run dry eventually. Moving to an expensive California studio didn't help matters.
Its more or less that they had a very long arc of development, got fucked over by Covid19 pandemic (started before the idea of JUST NO OFFICES BRO WE R SERIOUS BIZNEZZ was taken even slightly seriously, etc), and it has been a long time since Shovel Knight and its expansions. Not to mention that unlike all the other fucktards, they - kinda like Iga - decided to honor the >you bought the Treasure Trove, you got Shovel Knight and fully comprehensive games for Potion, Spectre, and King when they come out, instead of charging you $15-25 for each of them to pad out accounts. I have massive respect for Iga for doing that for Bloodstained until all the stretch goals were delivered, but I could understand them having some paid expansions/DLC outside of that usage too; something Iga didn't start until later, and Yacht Club never really had for Shovel.So really its the time with Mina. If it makes for a good game or now we'll see.
>>731439521>One decent gameAll the Shovel Knight games were good or better, and Cyber Shadow was great - I honestly thought it would get an expansion but apparently not yet.
>>731434282Sorry Mina, but the fastfood rat is not only more attractive, but cost nothing to rape.
If they generated in-house porn commissions they could make all the money they'd need and then some.
>>731439865Fast Food Rat game when?
>>731434282this is basically a niche tittle with limited appeal its gonna flop.
>>731437782>This needs to sell at least 500k copies for Yachtclubgames not to retire and sell the shovel knight ip The rat is better seeling her body on the side, I don't see her making that much money otherwise
>furfag slopGuaranteed flop, also mods get rid of these offtopic spamming furfags ITT
>>731434282Seems to me they haven't made anything since Shovel Knight and just made money by every other indie dev using the character in easter egg cameos. Not a great business plan.
>>731436148>Last thread was 4 days ago though?No it wasn't >>731312490

Guys she is already selling her body 5 bucks and you can help her games development https://e621.net/posts/6140413?q=mina_the_hollower
>only now realized that these threads being made 24/7 are stealth threads for mouse porni'm so fucking stupid holy shit
>>731434282They deserve it for giving blm money even if Mina is cute
>>731437782
>>731440794I can't say.
>>731441031anon... you posted this didn't you...
>>731434282Mina is going to have to put in a lot of extra work if she wants her developer to stay afloat.https://litter.catbox.moe/x1lxhoc2xrtggqm2.png
>Game on Steam with a "coming soon" ETA will probably go tits up and be removed from my wishlist before I know itMany such cases.
