Heyy guys i have bad situation when i died and start new game = all savegames just gone what happen ? I rlly sad 😦
@olive hull yes Hades sorry i forgot add name xD
Hi Supergiant -- took a while, but finally got my hands on Hades, and loving it so far. Wanted to thank you all for the amazing games. Bastion resonated way too close to my heart, and ever since I fell in love with how the studio gives its all to craft games with great artistic vision. I'm a Supergiant fan for life - Thank you for being awesome!
Shout out to all the amazing music @rain zinc makes, and @stone token 's heartwarming visuals. Love you all!
(sorry if this isn't the right place to post this)
tbh
not to bash yall but how tf am i getting @here'd in #hades-patch-notes when i have it muted
i got it muted to prevent le-spoilers
👀
You have to turn off notifications in the channel settings.
There's a toggle that says "Suppress @ Everyone and @ here"
Let me just say that Darren is fricking genius, I decided to listen to whole Hades OST through and I think it just cured my depression and probably unnoticed stage 2 cancer
All 4 super giant games soundtracks are in my top 7
"On a scale from 1 to Paper Boats, how gross is your sobbing?"
It’s a solid mourning song, thank you very much
I get really close to ugly crying every time I hear it.
Mother I’m here is still 
Yeah, I have russian cover of this song and it's just 
in the flame gets me 
In the flame is straight fire
She Shines 😭
oops pulled up discord on an old pc
rip
all of supergiant’s music just straight up slaps
“we all become” is one of my favorites but tbh they’re all my favorites
"Interlace" is a sleeper hit, change my mind
youre right
Apex beat tho
they had me at twisted streets and then i sold my soul to the entire transistor soundtrack
Any chance we can get some Hades merch soon?
Likely not until after the game is done with Early Access
so general Q
Can we ask in the AMA room if any more SG games are comingto switch?
You can, but the response will most likely be something along the lines of “we’d like to finish hades but it’s we’re interested in it”
It’s been asked before
honestly? youre better off asking something thats not in the faq lol
dont waste ur chance!!
QANDATIMELETSGO
This is my first Q&A I am participating in and it's super exciting!
Other server emojis are disabled in the ask channel so I'm just going to put this here 
re: lavender town
I just woke up is there reallya q and a going on?
Yup!
There sure is! For our Q&As, we open the #ask-supergiant channel to questions for about ten minutes, then our answerers spend about an hour answering them!
We've been trying to host a Q&A after every Hades update, so there should be more to participate in in the future!
Oh cool
I always miss these sadly
There has been a question I have wanted to ask Darren for a long time, but I think I might have to wait. He does a great job with different emotions.
I'm usually at work during
Darn did I miss the opportunity to ask questions?
I think so
You did, though you should still look through #ask-supergiant anyways - someone may have asked the question you were going to
No worries at all. and will do I will screen through.
If nothing else I will annoy them if they attend PAX west lol. JK, they are all super friendly though!
We will indeed be at PAX West! Please come annoy us, we'd love to have you. 
I wish I could thank them all in person for the games they have made. But I dont think I would be able to attend an event to meet them.
@atomic flicker I should be working this year. hopefully I am near you guys!
Hopefully you guys don't get too rowdy, I might have to bring back up hahahaha.
No no, we're all pretty tame!! Supergiants, not Rowdygiants. 😄
Please be mindful of where you step at least 🤣
Im curious, could we ever expect a crossover IP type game? There are enough characters floating around for something interesting.
Supergiant Smash Bros? 😛
maybe. I there are endless possible formats. I think art wise even a card game or some kind of auto chess . Without limiting things, I'm just saying their IP list has grown enough to make something like this happen.
Pyre made me want a 50-hour pure VN. Do it.
Red meets the entire cast of Hades and the Transistor just goes "Ooohh, no."
Hey Rivals of Aether already has some crossover characters from indy games...
I have always dreamed of a Smash style game for Indy titles.
memories of "indie brawl"
RIP Brawlout
if anyone can make "indie brawl but good" it's sgg
multiverse-spanning point-and-click adventure game/RPG
well regardless, I'm glad I can spark a decent conversation about this 🙂
Imagine the kid smacking Forsburn over the head with Shovel Knight's shovelblade while the drifter charges up his giant sword attack right behind them.
There is an answer to “crossover IP’s” in the most recent #ask-supergiant ! You shouldn’t have to scroll too much to find it
mc from hollow knight meets ti'zo with raiments on
I beat Hollow Knight today (first time playing it). It was dangerously close to being the perfect video game.
I love Hollow Knight
Definitely in my top 10 favorites
Part of me wants to train up and then attempt a 100% Steel Soul playthrough in a single sitting.
someone @ all the folks complaining about no hades on steam
because they would probably want to hear this
Hear what?
Oh oh I’m dumb lmao
wait a second
the folks will be @'ed soon, hahaha
Greg is,, still typing
uh, nothing, nevermind, haha
sweats profusely
It's coming don't worry!! 😄
I feel less dumb now lmao
Ohhhhhhhhh nice ok I’m gonna wait for steam bc gotta get that cloud save or Whamstever
I saw it for 10 seconds before it was deleted again lmao I feel Special Now
yes yes yes it's coming to steam!!!
I can't read the announcements channel lol
I will never understand why you love steam to death
I just have everything on it already so all in one place treats me well
i mostly appreciate it so my friends can play it
there's no reason to have the debate anymore!
I was gonna buy it on the epic store but I’d wait to get it on steam ¯_(ツ)_/¯
@warped holly use GOG GALAXY 2.0
Hey @mild horizon ! Sometimes Discord misbehaves with loading announcements, should work in a little bit for you. 👍
now i just gotta argue to get it on itch now
ty :)
I’ll check that out hm
@cursive galleon Congrats! When do you guys officially turn 10?
@neon kayak That absolutely Slapps tysm for telling me
def gonna use that!!
@warped holly your welcome
^
Gongratulation supergiant games
SMILING JODI......
We officially turn ten on September 1, Sunday at PAX! Thank you all for the kind words!
Looks like l have to buy Hades twice 
Happy almost-anniversary Supergiant! Your games have been part of my life ever since I played bastion in middle school, thanks for making such great, passionate games
AHHHHH I wish I was going to Pax west; hope the concert gets recorded
@hasty gale hey I was looking for something like that and didnt see it that's why I asked. I'll look again!
Maybe we could have anniversary themed vinyl collection in store (yeah it's just me sad that I didn't knew about Bastion limited edition)
im so happy,now i have all supergiant games
So excited for the Hades soundtrack!! Everything you Supergiants do is brilliant. Happy 10th anniversary team, here’s to 1000 more!!!
have we... really.... been blessed.... by this.... company.... for a decade
ikr
Happy anniversary. Ten years of my favourite games of all time
which the channel to add me a role?
#bot-commands
HAPPY 10th YEARS THANK YOU!!!! For making awesome freaking games including my favourite game of all time transistor. Thank you for making games that have helped me getting through very tough periods of my life and helped me combat my depression.
Most of all thank you for being awesome, creative, kind, talented, mindblowingly amazing people and company 
Happy 10th anniversary!
Happy early 10th anniversary Supergiants!! All these announcements and the new poster have gotten me so excited! I'm hoping there will be a recording of the Concert, it sounds like it would be so amazing!! 🙌 💕
Man... Bastion was 10 years ago... 
shhhh dont make me feel old :>
Supergiant is my deen years
teen years*
wish i could spell xD
Tbh the reason why i got really hooked on supergiant in the first place is passed away
just ordered the 20th anniversary and 2 poster collections
I'm so excited
Ohhh the poster....
Is it a limited time run?? I wanna get it but I’m too broke rn ;-;
My pleasure! The base 10th anniversary poster is not limited time! We'll be stocking it at the very least until we run out. The limited edition is limited until our quantity is gone, and then it's so long limited edition!
im sorta surprised it hasnt sold out but i guess it was more surprising the collectors edition from limited run sold out like it did
I wanna see it but i live in Denmark 😠
question about the panel on next saturday is there a way it will be streamed and or recorded?
Also someone show me the hades pax exclusive tshirt so i can be jealous xD
Finally a launch for Hades on Steam! First Supergiant game I'll have bought twice 
Super excited about that poster, also will be double dipping on the Switch with those awesome sales, thank you!
Idea: a Supergiant Collection Switch cartridge with all four of your game. What a collector's item that would be!
am i the only one who thought red and jodi were holding hands on that poster for some reason
You were not 
omg... I see it now too...
its canon
does anyone know if the switch deals will come to the eu aswell?
red and jodi SHOULD hold hands
edit the credits of transistor to ||replace boxer with jodi||
You can't prove they're not.
This implies that the Commonwealth post revolution is replaced by Cloudbank and I’m not sure how to feel about this
the sahrian union is the country
people are so reluctant to go from cloudbank because they dont know how good it's gotten
I asked this on Facebook as well, but I'm wondering about the timing of the Supergiant concert at PAX, their poster says 8:30, but the event on the PAX calendar leads me to believe MC Frontalot is starting at 8:30. Anyone able to confirm when Supergiant will go on stage?
small detail I didn't notice before
sgg has a new logo question mark?
yeah!!
Oh?
Oh hoh!
https://gph.is/g/ZOAQ83O
It looks so clean!
I like our new logo animation so much I... made the gif for myself.......
But it still has the original charm
That is one of the crispiest logo animations I have ever seen.
Hahahah I don't blame you, to be honest
ITS SO COOOL
IT RLLY IS!
The radial lines going all the way through the word "Supergiant" is a nice touch.
Yeah, it has a sound cue as well in the trailer! Unstoppable squad of Jen + Josh + Darren making it happen.
triumverate!!
Yall are legends
To be honest I aspire to be like you guys
I'm a musician and it's amazing seeing how you guys have used music in your games
The wide shot of Tartarus at the end of the trailer without any text is a wallpaper I want.
They're the Makoto Shinkai of video games. Press F11/12 at any point during gameplay and you can probably use it as a desktop background.
Extended Blackwagon sequences were the best.
I'd love a poster of the aerial/map view of the whole Downside
???
also I love your pfp
i played the game like 4 times right as it came out for all of the achievements and to see all the stuff i think
littel meg is tired
babymeg 
It's far too adorable.
I think the only achievement I haven't got is the multiplayer one
where it tells you how many rooms you've done
you can get the mp achievements with yourself haha
Cause there is a wallpaper for it that I can grab for you
just need a controller
OH.
I don't have a controller ;-;
noooo
Also yes please
Joanne put it out, I’ll go get it brb
Joanne, Cerb, you're good people.
https://www.artstation.com/artwork/lV6YgJ here it is!
thenk
wait ill move to the pyre channel bc spoilers
When Hades comes to steam, will we have to buy it again? or will there be some sort of code to input? Just asking to plan for the future
You would have to buy it again, yes
Ahhh the super giant 10 year anniversary poster is $22 dollars shipping for me ;~; it's so pretty but I might wait a week or so.
Does anyone know if the 10th anniversary concert is specific to people attending PAX or can we purchase tickets at the venue?
I believe it's open to the public, just free for PAX badge holders. Don't quote me on that though
Yeah it's unclear on all the material so ignore me. The fact that it specifies PAX badge holders as being free implies a paid, non-PAX group, but i can't find any info.
Yeah me either, hopefully they'll post some specifics on the event soon
I just shot an email to PAX asking for more details, we'll see if they're forthcoming.
If they are I'll share em here.
Thank you!
@royalcanoer @awintory @SupergiantGames @ashbarrett Not that I know of... I think you need a Saturday badge or a 4-day badge
ah I guess not
awww
still, I hope the concert is a blast!
I gotta say this I would have loved to part take in the sale
I could not because I already own all your games :3
you guys rock
well, you could gift a game to a friend who would like to play! :]
hello! am new here and i can't wait to play more supergiant games
hello!!! welcome!!!

I'm new to this server, too. What's the general culture like here? Do the Supergiant staff interact with you guys pretty regularly or is there a SGG staff who is mostly in charge of that?
welcome on in 
welcome!! lots of giants are active here :> you'll see em around if they talk in channels!
There are also q&a’s after every big update, you can check out the #ask-supergiant channel to see the previous ones and get a general idea of how they work
Thanks! I'm sure they're all super busy at the moment with Hades. How is it going, by the way? I've had to pass on it for now because I'm a dad who doesn't have the expendable free time to invest in a rogue-lite-like-etc. but have played and loved all the other games
I’ve been really enjoying it! it’s been really fun to play and watch it grow and develop with each update
Hades is going well and is really fun! We just got the last biome in the latest patch
I’m sure everyone who loved the previous games and wants to wait for the final release will not be disappointed in the least
hades is great!!! 
Can confirm, Hades is a great time, and it's only getting better! I'm so hype to see where it will be even just a few months from now
I hear hades is great
, I will find out for certain later this year
And I personally think SGG fandom has one of the best fan cultures I've ever been part of ✨
I've only ever really been a part of one other Discord server and it was about a board game with an active online playing community. What does a SGG fan group spend time discussing aside from the development of Hades?
umm, pretty much anything
whatever people bring up in the offtopic channel, really. there’s channels for each of the previous games too, it’s not All Hades All The Time
After asking I realized I can already toss my hat in this ring. I teach 7th/8th grade English in a pretty low-income area and so I'm always looking for ways to engage the kids without watering down content. I've used Transistor a few times in class when I'm teaching plot structure, to show them how a good exposition will introduce all these elements to a story that establish the world but also get you asking questions. They all really love it
I'll just load the game on a laptop, throw it on the projector, and play through the opening few minutes with the kids taking notes and writing down questions. I've done the exact same thing with the opening of Bioshock and Hyper Light Drifter, all phenomenal openings.
omg. that class sounds really fun
ohh that’s really cool!
that's awesome 
Nice!!
Hey Petersonian would you be fine with sending me a few DNA samples? Just yknow to make a clone army to overtake and fix education and stuff because holy cow I would've killed to get to study supergiant game material in class
I think I was around 7th grade when I was learning about Greek Myth in my classes too?
Oh, yeah. For sure. They write their own origin myths. I also had the best mythology teacher in college who used Halo as a teaching tool. He'd have kids play the game for the entire hour lecture and just be going on and on about the allusions to different mythologies
He must have rubbed off on me
TE, I do a lot of work with teens at summer camps, my church, other schools, etc. and whenever I mention I'm an English teacher and get groans I go, "Well, you wouldn't hate your English class if you had me!" ...which might be true, but even with all that interactive stuff, education system is super rough right now. My 7th graders read, on average, at a 4th grade level.
thinking abt becoming a seventh grader to get in on ur supergiant class
Maybe I'll expand on the Transistor bit this year (school year starting in a week) and have them write up their own, what will boil down to, Transistor fan fiction. I'll share some here, lol.
omg
Supergiant High were every character from the games are students (AND dateable) and the staff is just the SGG staff
but then theyd be babies......supergiant university
pros:
-adults
-sounds like you misremembered name of that cartoon with the gems really badly
LMAO
the staff is the giants, and volfred
volfred: what is up fellow real game devs
giants: 
With tsundere Bertrude and a Volfred who you can only date if you're male?
Who I'm now picturing like Garrus, "I'm in the middle of some calculations!"
It's incredibly acccurate
Every other character will jus auto advance basically to romance with little to no effort. Garrus has this one line about being in the middle of calibrations that you will hear a hundred times while trying to romance him
yea too bad they make people violent
isn't that right, discord server full of people who enjoy games that explore deep questions and hold powerful narrative messages about forgiveness and family
@amber panther , Yeah, unfortunate concession I've had to make in my career, while I spend the vast majority of my efforts on helping my kids read, understand, and appreciate literature and all the comes with it, I've had to accept that they are going to read almost not at all once they leave my room. So I spend a lot of time using other media, movies, tv shows, video games, and then making them have the same conversations they're having with literature because they WILL keep viewing all those things and if I can get them thinking critically about them then I'll have succeeded in some way
And, the reason I play the first minutes of Transistor in class is because they skip every dialogue box in everything
that's noble
Didn’t even know you could...
why...
no one has ever tried before
Ha! Biased sample group. An entire channel of people who may have never skipped a dialogue box once.
I feel kind of bad, because transistors dialog acts as the perfect hook while the player gets enough functions to to get to the real meat of the gameplay
when it goes from "oh hey this turn thing is pretty cool" to "WAIT I can do WHAT?!?"
You know, the gameplay wasn't what turned me on to Transistor, aside from the usual SGG trappings of great music, art, dialogue, etc. I was most deeply hooked and impressed when I realized that the story was hidden behind using the different functions in all their slots.
Errr, spoilers? Does that count? Whatever
nah that doesn’t count as spoilers, but if you would spoil what happens in the ending, that would go in the specific game channel
Ohhhhh, does Supergiant keep actual stats on which options people chose at terminals? I'd love to see that
Even that system works to get the player to experiment with functions
Oh, it's brilliant. It FORCES you to experiment with functions if you want the lore. And that means you're not just playing the game itself, because now every new encounter is one you're facing with not the optimal mechanical options, but the optimal narrative options. It's really neat
i'm pretty sure the terminals are actual stats if you have it through steam, yeah
Part of the reason I love transistor so much is that Supergiant knew what made their gameplay good, and what gameplay style (mixing up loadouts constantly to experiment with new combos) was the most fun
If I had to pick a game to write a thesis on it'd definitely be Transistor. I just love how the game has different "layers" for different kind of expectations, if you just want to rush the game then the Transistor provides all the narration you need without interfering with the actual gameplay, and you just pick up whatever function you feel comfortable with. But if you want to go deeper you have the terminals, you can go deeper with your loadout too, and it rewards you with even deeper lore... It's just beautiful
Like no matter what your playstyle is it feels like things are tuned in a way you'll get the most out of your playthrough
^^^
oh no talking about transistor again gave me the feels
From a narrative perspective, how does Hades stack up? I'd imagine it's gotta be a lot harder to deliver story in a procedurally (assuming) generated rogue-lite genre than in any of their previous genres
tbh hades story is exceptionally strong i think!!!
i think hades' particular strength is in giving you information through emotions- you can really understand and feel whats wrong in the house of hades just by trying to get in tune with zag, meg, hypnos, than, etc etc, and what they carry into their daily lives, better than any one impact scene can
yeah the hub area you arrive in between runs is mostly where the story is given to you, and while a lot of it isn’t in the game yet because it’s in early access, what’s in there already is very nice
and everyone is really pretty so
Hey, I know I'm a bit late, but I just wanted to congratulate the team on 10 years. I first got into Bastion about a year before Transistor was announced, and immediately fell in love with all of your work. Pyre is not only my absolute favorite game right now, but also helped me kinda come to terms with who I am and how I'm very different from a lot of other people. It's a little hard to truly describe the impact it had on me and my life. So thank you for 10 years of incredible games, and here's to 10 more!
Which game has the prettiest characters??
its a tough race but i gotta say transistor
transistor has the prettiest style but i think so far hades and pyre are winning on pretty character designs
savor this, it's one of the few times you'll hear me say transistor isn't at the top of my ranking gkdfjgfd
it’s the hip new thing but hades is probably the prettiest in terms of characters and designs
Do we know when the steam sale is gonna end?
yeah, whenever jen zee designs a new character for that game, it somehow always ends up being even prettier than the last pretty character and it's wonderful
TRU...
says on steam the sale ends in another hour?
chaos
tisiiiiiii 
god we were so spoiled having chaos so early on fr tho
yeah they're v cool indeed
i dont see any dates on steam
oooh thanks!
oh, wait
hm
bastion's got an hour left? transistor's the 26th, as is pyre.
might be a mistake on steam's part?
@reef nymph So I got an answer, but it wasn't terribly helpful:
Hello Terris,
I hope you're doing well.
Please note that you need to have an admission ticket to attend the concert at PAX event.
Let us know if you have other questions.
Regards,
Customer Service
(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
What I asked:
In regards to the concerts listed above, will people be able to purchase tickets at the door if they are not PAX attendees? Will attendees get free access? Your post is lacking these details.
Thanks!
They mean the event is inside of PAX. You can’t even access that location without a ticket. The event is free to PAX attendees though.
Okay, that clarifies, thank you.
Hello, can someone explain me why Supergiantgames is avoiding to explain why the nintendo 80% sale is only available in US??
Happy 10th anniversary guys.
Really great games, I'm really glad that you do what you do
Or at least tell us if the 80% sale is gonna be available in Europe eventually
Just a yes
Or a no
Or say, ask nintendo
Idk guys just answer something
I feel ignores
Ignored*
If it's of any comfort they don't usually respond on the server much, or quickly when they do
Well
I asked many times in twitter
And they never answer ppl who ask the same question
For some reason
They do need to be careful with their pr too
I know
A bunch of other people have been wondering about the switch sale too so hopefully we'll get some answers soon
Maybe
It's usually caitlin who handles this kind of stuff so we're almost certainly not getting answers while she's offline
Will the PAX concert be live-streamed/recorded in any way for people who can’t make it?
Holy cow, it has been ten years, huh
Good for the team, they've definitely earned it
the feeling of satisfaction when you can't buy anything from the steam sale because it's all already in your library
Mood
buy as gift
i want to but i don't think anyone would play them sadly
I still have some of the first posters they sold on their store with Jen’s signature. She drew a little badcell on the Transistor one next to her name XD
Can’t believe it’s been 10 years
Yaaaaassssss I should be able to attend the concert after all
I was worried it was going to be the later of the saturday concerts (an issue since I'd then have an hour+ bus ride back home) but 8:30 I can do 
oh nice!!!
oh the posters dropped 2 days ago?
glad I could snag one
yissss
also got other merch because I couldn't help myself
Hey everyone, does anyone know of a video or an article of the devs discussing their engine and the intricacies of working blending 2D scenarios with 3D character models? I've been searching for a while but couldn't find anything yet. Thanks!
So there aren’t any specifics, but the pipeline is to essentially render each animation with an orthographic camera view, export as a series of frame animations, and add those to the game
So for example if a walk cycle takes 8 frames to complete, that would end up being 64 frames, as they need to record from the eight possible directions that the isometric game character may be moving in (up, down, left, right, diagonals)
@potent belfry if you have access to the GDC Vault, Camilo did a talk about Supergiant’s 3D pipeline last year that was really good and iirc touches upon that a bit https://www.gdcvault.com/play/1025041/Animation-Bootcamp-From-Red-to
including what seren just mentioned
ah! Awesome! I do have 😉
💪
before I check out the video, what @hasty gale is saying is that the characters are actually in 2d as pre-rendered sprites? but it's so smooth 😮
and it's not just 8 directions, right?
Animated in 3D and exported in eight different directions as 2D sprites.
It’s usually pretty hard to notice in action!
uhmmm let me open the game, I can't believe you're locked in 8 directions, hold that though 😄
I think the only time I was ever able to notice it was moving while doing the flourish in Transistor, but I don’t think the intention is for the player to do that anyway haha
hmmm with the bow I was able to realize that when you're holding down the attack button, there is a rotation lock
but its way beyond 8 directions
but the movement itself is too smooth to be direction locked, and to be this smooth with so many animations, it would require an absurd amount of sprites
but I'm only checking out Hades, can't say for transistor
now that I opened the video, I feel like I'm going to be shocked
in the video, Camilo says the animations are recorded in 16 to 64 camera angles, so it's up to 64 directions. Holy cow. Average of 2500 pngs per animation 😮
Yeah, I must’ve misremembered the amount of directions! It’s amazing how many frames of animation they can fit in their games
Right? Well, thanks for all the info! I'm gonna watch this whole talk 😉
how do the controls work with the joycons?
wouldn't the turn() be janky since your don't have the fluidity of a mouse?
idk, i've never played transistor with a mouse, but i have with an xbox controller, and i didn't have a problem with it
i've never played with an xbox controller, but i'm almost sure it handles better with a mouse
i'm sure the non-turn action is fun, but i'm guessing the turn() planning is better with a mouse
but hey, if it doesn't take away from your experience it doesn't really matter
So now that Hades finally has a Steam page with an Early Access release date of Dec. 10 2019, the forums are being flooded with anti-Epic troll posts. Even though Supergiant Games is a small studio that likely needed the money Epic was offering them, even though they were the first one to accept the offer, before any of the controversy surrounding the store that would later unfold, and even though they didn't pull the game from Steam (like some other devs), but promised to offer it on other platforms after one year. They did nothing wrong, and yet people are threatening to boycott them forever. I would hate to see one of my favourite game devs go bankrupt over a bit of drama, so how can they mitigate a PR disaster?
i'd hardly calll this a pr disaster
it's a small amount of people getting very upset over nothing and it'll all die down in like a week
there's not a lot to be done about the people who run the crusade against epic
but i don't think they're in that much trouble while they have this fanbase
yeah sgg has a really strong fanbase
and like... it would have to be a very, very extreme pr disaster to get anywhere near going bankrupt
Trolls on steam are always like that it’s seriously not a pr disaster
It might be if like, any game journalism site made an article about it but what are they gonna write
“devs on epic store”
I had to trudge through steam forums once for a paper and it is just all like that. constantly
Also don't devs get a bigger cut in Epic?
they do
there's usually funding with the exclusivity deal as well
the epic store is also a lot smaller than steam right now so there's more exposure for each game too
The whole "epic controversy" has been quite dumb imo. I'm glad Steam gets at least a bit of competition
Thanks, that's what I thought. Personally, I've been pretty divided on EGS since it launched. I understand why a lot of people don't like it, and while I don't approve of exclusives, I completely sympathize with indie developers who take the offer. People who bash the small players really should be directing their rage at Epic themselves, and AAA developers who could easily afford to put their game on Steam. I've heard a lot of bad things about the store, but I've since learned that most of those things are completely false, or otherwise unproven (ie the claim that it's Chinese spyware). Not only that, but they've completely blown the whole thing out of proportion, comparing it to console wars, which is BS considering that A: None of the exclusives are permanent (with the possible exception of Free to Play games like Dauntless or The Cycle), and B: You don't have to buy any additional hardware. It's literally just another launcher, but fans have become vicious over it. And Youtubers that feed on the drama aren't helping at all.
I just downloaded the launcher so I could try hades and I have to say it's not as good as steam, but yeah i completely agree, it has been blown out of proportions. It's not the greatest launcher, and having multiple launchers for multiple games is not ideal, but it really isn't that bad
Not only that, but once the game is installed, you don't the launcher. And GOG Galaxy 2.0 pretty much makes it a non-issue anyway.
Wait I didn't know about that, this is pretty cool, thanks a lot !
donno, but when the storefront misses something like a shopping cart and blocks your account when buying games in bulk and scans your system for a steam install to pull your friendslist, I'd rather just avoid what I personally even refuse to call by name and simply refer to as bloatware
if the discussion is no longer about hades or supergiant, please move it to #off-topic-discussion
sorry, I'll just keep quiet for now
dw you haven't done anything wrong, server rules are just to stay on topic for the channel
I know, read them after all. just can't help it sometimes
same, it takes some getting used to the system
this place is way more on topic than other servers i've seen with similar rules though
has anyone here bought anything in the steam sale?
Not me, I already had all three games
already had Bastion & Transistor before, don't know if Pyre is something for me though
no, but i saw the price of the complete bundle and i was tempted by a second copy of the soundtracks
24 hours left.... im only missing the soundtracks to complete my collection, and while i have them im considering buying them on steam too lol
remember that if you've bought the soundtracks anywhere you can contact sgg to get a link to download a high quality flac version
you can listen to dread design the way her majesty intended
in an 87 megabyte file
@cold iron I enjoyed Pyre, but it's quite different from the others. Gameplay isn't a major focus anymore, it's more about story and characters. Overall, I still say it's worth buying, but your tastes may differ.
I just ordered the 10th anniversary poster 😄
OMG THE POSTER SALE IM
ok i just moved into my dorm and i was thinking of ordering a transistor poster and yall,,,
yall really gave such a good sale on posters that i could die omg
now the question is do i get one of the bundles or both oooooo
get everything
EVERYTHING IN THE STORE
OK YEAH U RIGHT
i don't know why you trust my judgement in anything
xD
Poster and Transistor bundle on the wayyyyyy
NICE im gonna get them both too i think
I wanted to get get the 🅱️yre bundle, but ya boi’s paycheck does not come in until Friday.
ooooof yeah
ive got money for College Clothes and i will be spending 40 of it on supergiant oops
but the thing is it's Such A Good Deal & i was gonna buy one poster anyways so,,,, like
that pyre poster has me DROOLING im in love
I hope you still have enough left for decent clothes
Pffft, Goodwill.
If dark souls has taught me anything it’s that clothing is for noobs
Ha ha ha my transphobic family just cut my money supply off so it looks like I’m only getting one set of posters
I’m going broke but I’m going broke in style B,)
the supergiant collection is on sale.................
and all i have left is the transistor and pyre soundtrack to buy...................................
Hey, I have a problem with all supergiant games on my new PC - steam overlay says I have 30FPS, but it feels like 2FPS. It's so bad, I can barely choose anything in the menu. It's just the super giant games, not windows, not anything else. I have a i5 9600k, 16GB DDR4 RAM and a RTX2070.
I didn't have this problem on my old PC..
does anyone know where that comes from?
If I press down/or up in the main menu, it takes roughly 3 seconds to go to the next menu option. All the animations are that slow as well, roughly 2-3 seconds till the next frame. Sound is normal.
Alright, I found a fix. If I deactivate fullscreen, it runs smoothly. Not sure why.
Maybe it doesn't like my G-Sync monitor?
try verifying your game files through the Steam interface, then maybe toggle V-sync on/off (depending on where it was to start)?
the game also has a few internal options for resolution, maybe it's trying to run at the wrong resolution and struggling? (Disclaimer: I am super not an expert, I just fiddle with settings until things work)
Yeah, already verified - they're ok. V-Sync can't be toggled in Transistor, sadly. Doesn't do anything for me in Bastion, though (I shouldn't have to turn it on either because of my G-Sync monitor, but just in case - it doesn't fix it)
Resolution also doesn't do anything
If I set Bastion to non-fullscreen, it's still fullscreen but runs smooth
If I set Transistor to non-fullscreen, it's actually windowed but runs smooth
if fullscreen is on, it barely registers anything
I can barely actually see anything happening, it's so slow.
I guess there may be something interfering with the game, because my PC should be able to run this game 10 times simultaneously
I mean, I don't have an old rig, my stuff is brand new and the games aren't too demanding
.. thank you for trying to help! 🙂
I'm gonna try forcing the game into V-Sync/turning it off via the NVIDIA Control Panel, maybe that does something..
Hey Grey! If the problem persists, please shoot us an email through our contact page here! https://www.supergiantgames.com/contact/
And if you haven't yet, you may want to check our knowledge base here just in case anything sounds like it may help. https://supergiantgames-kb.groovehq.com/help
Supergiant Games is an independent game developer in San Francisco, California. We created the games Bastion, Transistor, and Pyre.
@atomic flicker Yeah, sadly, it still persists. Playing windowed works but it's not really optimal. I'll probably write an e-mail if I can't figure it out myself. Thank you!
My pleasure! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. 🤞
How long is the anniversary sale, again? payday is so close yet so far
You've got time, we're planning to run it through PAX. 👍
😮
Yes
They definitely check the email, but considering the whole team's headed to PAX in a couple of days, they're most likely busier than usual.
Extremely important announcement
Amerigo Vespucci raps about Diablo 2, and the importance of binding those keys. Produced by Murali AKA Darren Korb. http://www.vespuccirhymes.com/
the most important anniversary that SGG could possibly be celebrating tbh
I dig my hole you bind those keys......
so happy hades coming to steam ❤ hooray
that vinyl aaaaaah
I NEED TO LOOK FOR MONEY
And I thought the vynils on their own were already expensive for EU buyers
tfw only 1000 copies
I have the Transistor soundtrack on vinyl already but I might have to scrape together the cash for that box set holy cow
whats it gonna be like 320€ to get it from EU
i recently aquired a vinyl player so i want this but i just spend like 2k in japan
idk how i am gonna be able to afford it
you went to japan with only 2k? how long?
i wish the timing of this was later
3 weeks, 2k spending budget
damn that sure is something
home and plane not counted in for that
oh
but yeh 300 is a lot for now XD
FECK
if it was a month later i wouldnt had a issue
theres no way im buying any more supergiant merch until there is proper EU shipping
a shame really
It is very tempting... but yeah 300 is steep
it's a lot but like that's not a bad price for 12 vinyls
vinyls for music?
don't quote me but i'm pretty sure it's cheaper to buy the whole burner + blanks
12 vynils? But isn't like
bastion 1 vynil, transistor 1, pyre 2?
or something like that
or are they 7" for this one
Pyre is 3
^
anyways brb, crunching numbers
to see how much i must bleed
I still dont see how it adds up to 12
are these the mini vinyls?
"featuring 7 discs of core music from each game + 5 discs of NEVER-BEFORE-RELEASED bonus material (Transistor Extended, Pyre: White Lute and Pyre: Black Mandolin) + another bonus 7” from the beloved Hades. "
the parenthesees just lists 3
where's the other 2 extra
Transistor (2+2), Pyre (3+3), Bastion 2 
assuming by the "+" that hades is not one of those 5
2 versions of each Transistor and Pyre
I want it so bad, but I don't think I've ever spent that much at once on music / a game
One disc not accounted for
kinda sad it doesnt include all the HADES tracks :/
actually, looking at it being done professionally
i don't see how SGG could profit from this collector's bundle unless they cheaped out on the vinyl's slightly
if i was a millionaire i'd buy the bundle just because of how cool it'd look lol
true
but i'm poor ¯_(ツ)_/¯
ok i might be abkle to get it
i am just gonna live on ramen for a month
Pyre ost (3 vynil) is 50$. This is 12 vynils + 7" vynil. 12/3 = 4. 50$ * 4 = 200. This is 300$
so
yeah
Existing pressings are 180g
i highly doubt a custom pressed vinyl will go for 50$
it's gotta be like a deal or smthn
black magic
And the nice box packaging
Yeah if you want to get the soundtrack on bland custom vinyl then go for it
I wish i had the money for those vinyls
i'd rather get a disk set for a bundle
soory
b/c they'd last longer
Like I said I like James Gilleard but I'd much rather have Jen's art on them
which as it seems you're not getting here
I don't know, it doesn't seem like such a great deal to me, specially when I'll have to add in another like 50$ for EU shipping
but I appreciate there being a collection release
If only I had known about this a few days ago before I went a spent a ton on other vinyl :c
what was the difference between the 150g and 180g vinyl of pyre?
the color of the disks i think?
wasn't one of the pressings all white disks?
maybe I'm mistaken
I'm not seeing it on their store now
I think I'm thinking of the 2 transistor ones
well yeah but wasnt there some other difference
oh yeah it's actually in the description
sorry, I know very little about this stuff. I’m going off memory
is 180g supposed to be better cause otherwise i would've gotten the 150g ones
no you're right
but it’s all in the descriptions about pictures in the store pages and stuff
oh, it is? :(
hence i was asking
they used to remain at the bottom of the store and just display as “sold out”
yeah. well, they're 180g and black, that's about it it seems
so the transistor LE is white, right
Bastion is still 180g, but Pyre and Transistor are 150g color
and the bastion LE was red?
At least what is currently available on the site
im losing my mind over this cus i want it so bad but it is also very money
really hoping the game runs well on my media rig
should though, i don't expect hades to be super duper graphics melting lol
im crying in the club @ the vinyl thing omg
i
i want it so bad
cries in broke college student
bastion standard is 180g black, LE was 180g red
pyre standard is 150g red/yellow/blue, LE was 180g black
transistor there have been a few different ones, 180g white, 180g black, 150g coke bottle green, 150g white (current)
$300?! No! I need it! It'd look so good on a wall! AAAAHHHHH
You people are monsters
delightful, wonderful, artful monsters
the preorder opens up like right when PAX starts which is kinda inconvenient, I wonder if they'll be taking preorders there?
i wonder how limited it is
1000 copies
I have a funny feeling they'll all sell, too.
Hmmm....
Oh they will definitely all sell
I don't have a vinyl player because I don't have vinyls. I don't have vinyls because I have a vinyl player...
Just use toothpick
Guess I'll be heading into PAX late, gotta get that preorder!
Supergiant deserves this kind of celebration 🎉 great work everyone
Supergiant Orchestra... I wonder if that means a true orchestral version of Bind Those Keys lol
when you have to mute this discord because it bums you out every time you see the Supergiant concert stuff and know they'll never be in your area
😦 😦
MAX HYPE about that concert
go on tourrrrrrr
you can watch online though!
I wish I could go for the concert....
you and me both
"This may be my new favorite thing. When people ask "what's one prop you wish you had back?" The answer from now on is going to be this book.
300 hand bound pages, hand wrapped leather cover and spine, all details hand painted, even the star orb eye was turned by hand on my lathe! It felt so good to get some traditional building in and I had a blast making this piece."
Woah are the pages all filled in from the game
Uhh does anyone know when the merch sale ends?
After PAX West I believe they said.
Hey guys, sorry if I've missed this, but does anyone know if the full size 10th anniversary artwork is available somewhere? I'm absolutely in love with it!
I’m pretty sure it’s on the supergiant website?
it's on their store yeah ^_^
https://store.supergiantgames.com/products/supergiant-games-10-year-anniversary-poster
holy heck i NEED to see that book someday
do we have any idea when the next documentary will be released? 🤔
will the 10th anniversary poster remain in the store after the anniversary sales etc? I don't have the $$ to get any artwork atm
i think there's a limited version and a non-limited one
omg, ofc, that should've given me the answer. doh, thanks!
woops
due a mistake of my actions which is to hard to explain
but now i can buy the vinyl
oopsies but also congrats?
Hey just joined. Finished Bastion, just got Transistor, and I love them both. Any chance of other games coming to Switch? Hades looks amazing. Sorry for the new question
We expect to bring Hades to a variety of other platforms once Early Access is complete. We haven't decided on all the platforms yet.```
EA is set to end in the second half of 2020 per the most recent announcement. A Switch release, if there was going to be one, would likely be a while after that. Nothing's been announced yet though - gotta finish the game first!
nothing is currently planned for pyre either, unfortunately--but maybe someday!
Thanks for the quick reply!
so we know the concert is getting a vod, but will the actual 10 year anniversary panel get one?
If it's streamed yes (since twitch will save the broadcast as a vod) but I have no idea if it is
pyre was my first supergiant game and is by far my favorite. the soundtrack is also beautiful!
Does anyone know long does shipping usually take/ is there a way to track my package?
Are you speaking about an SGG store purchase?
SG s So Good Abt getting packages out tbh
I got mine 3 days before I was supposed to amen
its bc cait Rocks
so true
SUPER true
💃
i think my tizo plush took like a week to arrive? you can track your order status in the email you get iirc
but with pax right now, it might take longer
Yeah! Our general goal is within 5 business days, but that's a little wonky right now because of PAX! We got a lot of orders last week because of our sale (and thank you all so much!!) so orders will be a bit behind schedule until we get back.
Once they ship, you should receive an automated email with your tracking information. 👍
Also thanks guys. 
im so glad im not busy at 10:00pdt tomorrow
Ah if you’re catching the concert, that’s at 8:30pm pt!
will it be live streamed?
ok just saw announcements
i am OFFICIALLY HYPED
it'll be at 4 am my time
o_o
Yes, they will be recording the VOD and saving it for later!
no I'm talking about catching the vinyls
Rip this weeks pay, I hardly knew thee 
I somehow managed to get the vinyls on preorder (somehow) good luck to everyone else
Preordered the Vinyls! Finally, a good addition to my collection.
If I had a record player and additional 300 bones to drop on this, I would so fast.
im so glad i actually managed to get it as well
I believe you mean a fine addition to your collection, somewhere General Grievous is weeping
I wish Darren and Ash could sign the vinyls for us :\
I know that there's prob another company handling distribution but man would it be sick
Living on the east coast, it's really hard to meet supergiant at expos 😦
Is the concert tomorrow or today(the 30th)?
is there a name for the artstyle in transistor, pyre, and hades? because from these three games, ive loved jen zee’s work and was immediately captivated.
"good"
@ivory nymph transistor's art is influenced by art nouveau, with an emphasis on klimt
imo
thanks!
np!
@winged garden tomorrow!
Oh cool! Thank you!
Legendary.
thank you for the amazing games
Play hades?
i was gonna wait til the steam release (or maybe gog who knows 👀) to play it but I might just go all in now
Have you played Bastion or Transistor!
absolutely
multiple times each 
Good!
aaaaaa it's time to head out to pax 
Not sure if this is the right channel for this Q but
Does anyone know if people without PAX badges can get in to the concert tonight?
No, you will need at least a Saturday badge to get in.
PAX!
I'm hosting Supergiant's 10th Anniversary Panel
- 12PM @ Raven Theatre
All 7 original team members, talking about the history of the studio and the design of Bastion, Transistor, Pyre & Hades.
See you there! https://t.co/GUnfcI9qDV
Danny hosting!
If Supergiant is at Pax West. Do we know if they'll attend Pax South? I've loved them for years and would like to see them. I had to order the hades shirt, couldn't miss out on that.
Do we know if the limited vinyl box has the number of which it is from the 1000?
like number 69 of 1000
:3
They are on. :3
It came out like diarrhea - Jen Zee, 2019
god jen was so funny
i wish that panel was longer ;__;
gotta watch it now then!
Awesome panel
Oof my legs are sore... may this line move quickly
sitting here watching the clock like 👀 for the concert
supergiant concert starts in 13min?
Yep!!
That's going to be streamed yeah? Anyone have link handy?
im assuming the link that's just a few lines above?
Thanks Dia
Getting hyped
5:30 here in France and woke up to absolutely not MISS THIS
aaaaaaaa i woke up just in time for the concert
it should be starting now... any time now...
someone is saying that they want a supergiant metrovania game
Now I want that
anything sgg make IS a blasst
Every upgrade is a character, each more datable than the last
It's written in fate
still holding out for the turn-based checker board strategy game
Alright, it's 5:30 where I live and I am READY TO WATCH SOME CONCERTS O:<
starting!!!
HYPE
so hype!!
YOU CAN'T START WITH TRANSISTOR I NEED TO SAVE SOME TEARS FOR THE END
😂
ah this is fantastic
I'm shivering
(I'm glad that they talk so much between songs because I needed that bathroom break)
Pyre!!
oh no my favourite song
im losing my absolute mind this is amazing
😩
AAAAAAAHHH THIS IS SO GOOD
Awesome
👀
first time live huh
at some future show they need to like... half-troll and have a gorgeous Red cosplayer standing on teh stage for start of We All Become...
and then like 3 lines in ashley sneaks back on
if they play zulf's theme ill cop hades tonight
same
WHAT IF THEY DID........
sgg give the fans what they want
please bastion content
haha just kidding
fhgdsfjdgh godd
unles?...
(soliam murr voice)
(somehow she shines sounds even better here compared to when I heard it in mp3)
Mhmmm
hey guys it just started and i already cry buckets
This is great live
yeah it's an extremely great performance
this is making me wanna go back and replay Transistor
samesies
sorry endless Hades runs, u takin a break tonight
👏 👏 👏 👏
difference place and land?
One Winged Angel cover, you say...
omfg that harp intro
because Orpheus hasn't been singing in my game enough!!!!
brb crying forever 

The duo sounds SO GOOD
darren actually murdering this vocal performance rn
go off king
murdering in a good way
yes and ashley's harmonies are so good
this is why I prefer the version where orpheus was holding a mirror
oh ? SURPRISE ?
and saw his wife behind him the whole time via the mirror, and never had to look back
(it's not canon)
lotta transistor love tonight
Transistor had a really great soundtrack
it's bc it's got the most ashley in it probably
All of them are good, but lots of songs that would hold up well live
i think it has the most vocal tracks but idk
I think pyre had 4 (unique) vocal tracks if you don't count the different never to return versions/ending
otherwise darren would have to sing like 150 songs or something hahaha
say, the asian looking string instrument (cello?) player, the beads are on their right wrist? are they non-binary?
in eastern asia, human body decoration that do not come in pairs are on left side for men and right side for women
prayer beads especially are usually worn on the left wrist for men
ooo Pyre again
honestly the gameplay overlays are making me feel some kinda way
really throwin me back
oh this is a good arrangement
ok the flourishes are a bit much... kinda neat, but lil too much on this one
it's a lot more like an open track i think?? it's really neat!
am i the only one who would love for them to play some deep instrumental cuts or like a medley at least instead of just focusing vocal tracks? like the concert is absolutely fantastic so far but sometime i would LOVE a supergiant concert that just goes off with the instrumentals
yeah that'd sound good... they can't do everything I guess
same honestly
yep
maybe they're not from eastern asia
if they're not playing every OST front to back in chronological order I want my money back
A big instrumental medly of many of their dope tracks would be... 💯
i wanna hear some hades metal y'know
yeah
bigger band that has a rock section + orchestral stuff perhaps?
i will admit i'm a big music nerd myself so like composition wise i just love all of darren's work
A medley with all the core musical tells of the different series would be great
someone get VideoGameOrchestra to do a sgg medley!
that would be amazing but all of bastion's songs are in a funky tuning lol so everyone would have to swap instruments mid song
which if they could pull off would be badass
bastion songs: classic edition
True. I remember having to tune my guitar to something fairly odd playing Setting Sail
CGCFGC
^
i at this point just have my one acoustic permamently tuned to that lol
it's a fun tuning to play around with
I haven't messed around with it much
isthat new sybil art????
Might be. I don't recognize it
someone said so on the twitch chat too
Yeah I've never seen it before in-game.
