epic games gives them a higher cut as well, so its a great choice for everyone tbh

lucid plover
#

hey darren when is the soundtrack droppin, give me my fix

barren sonnet
#

yea

covert glen
#

My one question is if it looks alot like Transistor and Bastion, how exactly does it develop/diversify away from that?

lucid plover
#

i can only loop this trailer so many times

livid nimbus
#

dont get me wrong i dont mind the epic games store

warm radish
#

hype yo

livid nimbus
#

but like i like all my games in 1 place

lucid plover
#

ditto

bright panther
#

thank the gods for the epic store, go make 18% more money you beautiful bastards

livid nimbus
#

they deserve it

cosmic hornet
#

Trailer looks great. Is there a list of platforms yet? Would be sad if this is the first Supergiant game without Linux support.

snow gazelle
#

So for people wondering about Steam, in the FAQ : "If you’d prefer to wait until the game is 100% complete, we expect Hades will eventually be available on a variety of platforms, once Early Access is complete. "

lusty cosmos
#

Well, I'd personally reccomend you all to wait until tomorrow to find out what it is properly, see some gameplay perhaps, see if you're gonna buy it or wait till it's released, cause questions right now are kind of iffy

pastel coral
#

I would just recommend getting the Epic games store to actually say that it will cost $20 instead of Free on the store page, so that people can actually get the correct information for when they want to try out the game

livid nimbus
#

from what i understood looking into it

daring rune
#

@covert glen im kinda okay with a lack of huge gameplay diversity because the aesthetic and worldbuilding will always be so fresh, but it looks like while the combat is similar itll be much more of a roguelike

livid nimbus
#

its an isometric roguelike

worthy star
#

it already says the price now

#

when i went to the page it changed to 19.99 instantly

median shore
#

Hey so uhhhhhh which voice is Logan Cunningham @sgg pls this is important

lusty cosmos
#

@livid nimbus I kind of doubt it'd be a roguelike. Roguelite at best.

unkempt zodiac
#

Looks stunning but as I don’t game on PC I’ve got to be patient for a console release

hollow heron
#

rougelike/lite is a controversial term tbh

pastel coral
#

Roguelites are still good

dawn leaf
#

yo is this game gonna be on Steam i'd much rather have it their

snow gazelle
#

FAQ : "If you’d prefer to wait until the game is 100% complete, we expect Hades will eventually be available on a variety of platforms, once Early Access is complete. "

lusty cosmos
#

@pastel coral Not saying they ain't, love both genres. @hollow heron Genres are controversial. Nowadays they're subjective even

hollow heron
#

yeah

livid nimbus
pastel coral
#

It will probably release on other platforms once they have finished the early access of the game

hollow heron
#

rougelikes being super specific has always bugged me

livid nimbus
#

it says on the page its a roguelike dungeon crawler

pastel coral
#

So just be patient, and follow the progression and get the game when it is on a platform that you are comfortable with @dawn leaf

supple bronze
#

hyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyype

lusty cosmos
#

"What is a JRPG?" is a question that haunts me But anyway, since I'm not talking about hades anymore I might as well return to the game awards. Brb

pastel coral
#

Japanese Role Playing Game

void tangle
#

But I want it on all of my platforms right now!

covert glen
#

@daring rune again i got not issues with that, but part of the reason i preferred pyre over the two others is because it was FRESH yo. NBA fantasy rituals? count me in. I love the whole chthonic (underworld) aspect of mythology, so this speaks to me, and I'll buy it. still interested in what surprised our supergiant friends have up their sleeves

pastel coral
#

How can people not know that

dawn leaf
#

@pastel coral but i want to play it now and then ill have to pay for it again on steam

wary roost
#

I mean there're people who have to ask "What's an RPG" soo

void tangle
#

Just write it in Java because it's cross platform! ron

hallow void
#

So, quick question - any kind of restrictions for someone who might want to stream this

lucid plover
#

ok but can we talk about the character design because HHHHH jen zee how are you so powerful

gloomy quartz
#

Question: will this game be coming out on other platforms?

steady sinew
#

what time does it release

covert glen
#

java is awful to write

lusty cosmos
#

@pastel coral The argument goes further than that. "What makes a JRPG a JRPG? Is it because it's made in Japan? Is it because it's turn based, like the original JRPGs?" I'll legit restrict myself from going further though, out

void tangle
#

Java isn't bad to write, it just has ridiculous overhead.

alpine ore
#

it looks interesting a lot more of a "softer" art style i wasnt sure if i heard logan in there

fringe ember
#

Am hyped. Loving all what Supergiant made, and roguelites (dead cells, Isaac, risk of rain, etc). So this gonna be awesome loadLove

alpine ore
#

But yeah i am so hyped

dry ice
#

congrats on the announcement guys, game looks good

void tangle
#

It speaks volumes that I couldn't tell which of their current games it most resembles.

vestal lodge
#

@median shore It's in the credits 😉

fringe ember
#

Yeah awesome world premiere. The others were less spectacular and great than yours. Might be biased tho loadLaugh

hollow heron
#

just bought it I love supergiant games and roguelites so this is a match made in heaven

alpine ore
#

wet bay
#

@balmy sigil might be just severes aren't handling it well

alpine ore
#

i dropped everything when i saw supergiant though

spark marten
#

^TBH

pastel coral
#

But this will be interesting.
The artstyle of Supergiant games have always been beautiful and the gameplay in each game is always its own thing so I can't wait to actually see how Hades ends up being

alpine ore

My friend i was in a vc was like jedder CALM DOWN

I wouldn't say that a game not being on steam makes it a no buy

Congrats on the launch. Supergiant + Greek mythology is a buy for me :)

lucid plover

i mean i just assume logan voices everyone

#

even the women

maiden fiber
#

does Logan Cunningham voice Hades himself?

autumn meteor

I can’t wait to see all the Gods designs

lucid plover

sounds like him to me

daring rune

Logan voices my thoughts

@lucid plover obviously

i'm excited for both supergiant AND supporting a steam competitor

Is it assured that it will not be on Steam ever? Not really familiar with these kinds of things

maiden fiber
#

he can go from RRRRRRRREADER to "Hey, Red, we're not gonna get away with this, are we?"

dry sable
#

not installing crap DRM for one game

#

also if it does come to steam then I wasted a purchase when I could have just bought it once through steam

lucid plover
#

jen zee never fails to impress

wet bay
#

HEY REAL TALK

#

I would DIE to cosplay some of these designs, is there any way to get the dseigns?

violet remnant

their page says its DRM free

Superegiant is literally just the best game devs so I'm so hyped for this you could not believe

I had an actual breakdown when i saw supergiant come on screen

amazing art style

pastel coral
#

Supergiant games have always had an amazing art style

modern garnet
#

can we talk about the trailer theme? what a janky fun time signature

Supergiant Games are literally the best game devs ever - as said in the Supergiant Games discord

Were we allowed to stream the game?

Is it weird that I am already sitting down to gather a small FAQ to send in this message to possibly be pinned?

olive bone
#

❤ 🐶

solemn nest
#

so do we have a release date

#

?

pastel coral
#

It is in Early Access, so it will probably be announced at a later date when they know more about their progression

alpine ore
#

Early Access games never go out of early access thorlarLUL xD

#

@alpine ore You can absolutely stream it!

#

DATING!!!!!

solemn nest
#

I just hope I don't get too nit picky about every tiny thing that might innacurate to Greek mythology

alpine ore
#

@pastel coral what question xD

#

@slim fable we all are xD

split fiber
#

the game was free for a limited time or was a web bug?

alpine ore
#

I may have picked a specific game as my fav supergiant game but goddang i love them all transistor is just extra special too me

slim fable
#

Also that voice actor for the main character sounded super familiar and idk why. Y'all are doing a great job

alpine ore
#

@split fiber bug

pastel coral
#

I was about to try and upload a picture of it, and I failed miserably ;-;

But the Question is Can I stream the game, or make content for different platforms? @alpine ore

hard ember
#

Glad I'm only 40 minutes late, MORE than ready to try this sucker out and help give feedback!

pastel coral
#

The answer is most likely Yes, but better be safe than sorry

alpine ore
#

@slim fable it is probably Logan

#

@pastel coral I got the answer, yes you can stream, i asked earlier and morgan said yes ^-^

brisk trail
#

Is there a possibility of Epic Games early access owners getting a Steam Key at release?

I want to join EA but love to play my games on Steam.

pastel coral
#

Ah, fantastic

solemn nest
#

Logan has a shapeshifter of a voice

pastel coral
#

Will add that to the massive Q&A post then

alpine ore
#

@slim fable Logan Cunningham whom is the regular voice actor for fx. the narrator in bastion, the guy from the transistor

#

and of course the voice in pyre

#

hi, just a quick question -- if i buy Hades when it's in EA, can I get a steam/GOG key once it goes on those platforms as well or would I need to purchase it a second time? the FAQ was a bit unclear about that

silk coral
#

I can't make myself hit the play button I don't wanna stop listening to the main menu music

pastel coral
#

Once the game is out of Early Access it will be released on other platforms most likely @marble sphinx, so you would be able to buy a GOG or Steam copy of the game then

#

While the game is in Early Access it will only be on the Epic Games store

slim fable
#

Well, honestly, the art and everything looks so cool. My laptop broke so I can't play it until I get it repaired. ;-; Do you guys have a basic team of artists that have social media links?

#

I'm obsessed with the style, so cool

covert salmon
#

did they upload the music anywhere yet?

solemn nest
#

But will you get the game on steam after it releases?

Probably.... and with the ost if thats an option

Currently the information is that you will have to buy the game on the other platforms after release

I believe that the gods it shows (in order of appearance) are Hades, whoever Hades son is (who might be a demigod), Athena, Poseidon, Aphrodite, and someone else

hmmm... i havn't been able to play yet for reasons of forgot my epic password and am now locked out for 2 hours but... does that mean companion character... because it would awesome to have a companion character

#

By the way if/when I get it from Epic Games will I be able to launch Hades on its own or does Epic Games have its own frontend?

olive jungle
#

Watch your language please!

daring turtle
#

@vestal lodge thanks - sorry to be a bother

woven moon
#

Ooh my bad

daring turtle
#

found the FAQ on the site, but this one seems to be different

vestal lodge
#

@remote saffron It has its own launcher which you'll need to purchase and update the game. It can be launched from Windows once it's installed. Since we're in Early Access it'll be updated frequently though!

remote saffron
#

So, Hades has its own launcher, or Epic Games does?

brisk trail
#

This is so hype

remote saffron
#

If Hades has its own launcher then yes good

toxic ether
#

So if i install Hades and then uninstall the epic games launcher, will Hades still run?

remote saffron
#

my wallet is screaming because it's probably about to send $60 to SGG very soon

#

bastion+transistor on switch and now hades

vestal lodge
#

Epic Games has its own launcher

remote saffron
#

Ah, okay

vestal lodge
#

Not Hades

remote saffron
#

darn

#

Thank you for your help!

#

and the screams are of pleasure, I swear

clever flume
#

Do you have plans to bring the game to Steam?

pastel coral
#

Yes, after the game leaves Early Access

#

It will go on multiple platforms at that point

hybrid parcel
#

I hope it comes to Switch too!

clever flume
#

Fair enough

pure forge
#

So this has probably been asked already, but if we buy the game on Epic, will we also have to purchase it when it comes out on steam?

clever flume
#

I think so

marble sphinx
#

apparently you will have to buy it a second time

pastel coral
#

Yes, as per the information we have at this point you will have to buy it a second time

daring turtle
#

i wouldn't mind paying $40 to support my favorite game developer

pastel coral
#

All of this might be subject to change over time however, but don't assume that it will happen

ebon ice
#

Pretty disappointed with the choice to have an (admittedly timed) exclusive on another store

marble sphinx
#

which is disappointing, cause i don't want to have to go through the epic store/launcher for just one game

brisk trail
#

STEAM?????

clever flume
#

Eh, it's their game

daring turtle
#

i think i own 4 copies of Bastion, 3 of Transistor, and 2 of Pyre lol

pure forge
#

Yea, I'll probs do it anyways cause I love Supergiant, I was just curious

brisk trail
#

Steam or no buy

clever flume
#

As long as it eventually comes to Steam I am happy

mighty ginkgo
#

any reason as to why it went onto the EPIC Games launcher?

marble sphinx
#

oh totally, if i could transfer it to steam once it goes there i'd buy it rn no questions asked

clever flume
#

They get 80% of the revenue

wooden folio
#

they probably got a better deal from Epic rather than Valve

clever flume
#

Which is a way better deal than valve offers

#

Which is totally valid

yeah valve are not good to indies so i don't blame them

mighty ginkgo
#

cool,

wooden folio
#

not surprising since Epic seems to be pushing their store recently

pastel coral
#

Is it time to update the small Q&A I made?

mighty ginkgo
#

I'll still buy Hades on Switch probably

pastel coral
#

I think it is

clever flume
#

I hope this competition pushes valve to make some big changes

brisk trail
#

There are more people using steam. Only people that use epic game launcher play fortnite....

wooden folio
#

no, Epic Games is also the home of Unreal Engine

mighty ginkgo
#

Steam has never had competition

pastel coral
#

@clever flume if gog couldn't do it, i doubt epic can tbh

mighty ginkgo
#

But now that EPIC and Discord are doing their own things now

daring turtle
#

you should add that as sticky

marble sphinx
clever flume
#

GOG specialized in older games I think

pastel coral
#

I am not a mod or anything like that though, I am just someone who is taking some time to collect this information

marble sphinx
#

@clever flume they did/do try to pick up new indies as well, sometimes

clever flume
#

Perhaps I give valve too much credit hoping that they will one day change

vestal lodge
#

@pastel coral I really appreciate it!

covert trellis
#

Is Hades a single-player game? I hope it is.

pastel coral
#

Yes

winter skiff
clever flume
#

I must say, of all the people to come out and announce a roguelike, Supergiant was not on that list so I am pleasantly surprised

ashen sky
#

man id love to get my hands on some early access but id much rather have in on steam than on epic. now thats a dilemma

wooden folio
#

I was not expecting an announcement at all for a few months, very pleasant surprise

clever flume
#

Roguelikes are one of my favorite genres and Supergiant is one of my favorite indies so this is really tempting

pastel coral
#

Well, this is just to make it easier for the people who need easy access to the information, and possibly for mods to easily sort through if needed for them @vestal lodge. Happy to help

lone locust
#

I am wondering if you do purchase the early access is it only for PC at the moment or does it work with other platforms as well

marble sphinx
#

i mean i didn't see it coming but i also didn't see them announcing a sportsball game

brisk trail
#

I'm sick and tired of downloading so many clients. I only ever get games from steam and gog.

marble sphinx
#

but here we are

maiden fiber
#

so much hype

#

nice pfp btw, Chariot

shadow owl
#

So excited, but I think I’m going to wait until after early access

brisk trail
#

yeah same

clever flume
#

Thanks!

balmy sigil
#

still haven't gotten the game yet

#

I've been trying for an hour

#

I picked it up immediately lol.

You will find a lot of information about the game, and release of it if you scroll up to my massive wall of text slightly above @lone locust

k thank you @pastel coral

proper canyon
#

I just got the email!!! Will Hades be out on steam when it's fully released?

pastel coral
#

Yes

ashen sky
#

I hope there are plans to extend the early accsess to steam

proper canyon
#

THank gosh ok

pastel coral
#

Once it is fully released it will go onto multiple platforms

proper canyon
#

My heart

#

gosh the pictures are SO COOL

pastel coral
#

It is a Supergiant game after all 😛

shadow owl
#

Reading through their site it’s still a WIP game

rough mirage
#

How far through development is it?

pastel coral
#

It is in Early Access yes @shadow owl

vestal lodge
#

@rough mirage Still pretty early! We started after we launched Pyre, so a little over a year. We expect to support it through Early Access for some time!

proper canyon
#

20 different characters right now and a relatively polished game from the footage so we got that going for us

shadow owl
#

Looks absolutely beautiful as always though

mighty stratus
#

who else is about to play Hades for hours after the game awards ???

digital ice
#

How many hours long is it estimated to be right now?

lone locust
#

The music is so much hype as well

proper canyon
#

not me ;-;. All my disposable income is in my steam wallet because I'm dumb but as soon as I can I'll get it!

brisk trail
#

Will be launch on steam?

proper canyon
#

yeah

maiden fiber
#

I'm conflicted

#

should I replay all the SGG games or finish sitting through TGA?

proper canyon
#

why not both? 😄

mighty stratus
#

presumably it'll launch everywhere once it's finished

maiden fiber
#

I can't concentrate on Bastion and new reveals at the same time D:

shadow owl
#

Is the soundtrack available for purchase with early release? 😂

pastel coral
#

It will launch on a lot of platforms after release at least @mighty stratus

proper canyon
#

Not yet on the soundtrack, see FAQ

#

but soon!

shadow owl
#

Ah thx

red glade
#

Is this going to be on Steam?

pastel coral
#

It is not out yet, but it will be on the YouTube channel as soon as possible

#

Yes @red glade

#

But after the Early access

red glade
#

Thank goodness

mighty stratus
#

merch and music will most likely drop closer to the release

ashen sky
#

a mod should probably pin Redray's faq

proper canyon
shadow owl
#

Redray is the real MVP

proper canyon
#

^

red glade
#

I love supergiant games, cant wait to play this one

keen flame
#

Just out of curiosity, I know the game is currently in Early Access, but does the Epic Games version have any form of DRM, and if so, will there be any plans for a GOG release similar to Pyre and previous games?

vale brook
#

No DRM

shadow owl
#

DRM Free

proper canyon
#

laughs in Steam

vale brook
#

They are planning to release on Steam and others when out of early access

red glade
#

Epic is DRM Free???

pastel coral
#

NO DRM, and it will release on multiple platforms after the Early Access

vestal lodge
vestal coral
#

But it’s only on windows now?

pastel coral
#

Yes, only on Windows for now

marble sphinx
#

oh, epic is drm free huh

keen flame
#

Awesome! I'm a huge fan of Supergiant Games' work. Knowing that the Epic Games launcher doesn't require DRM, I'll see about picking up Hades asap

marble sphinx
#

fair enough, that seals it for me

wooden quartz
#

hey why is hades so hot

pastel coral
#

Because he is Hades

proper canyon
#

^^^^

vestal lodge
#

Just want to say these exist shadesmile shadeohboy shadegrief shadefear shadeeyeroll shadeembarassed shadedisgruntled

shadow owl
#

Lol that was my first thought @wooden quartz

ashen sky
#

I wont lie im pretty sad i cant get early access on steam :( will probably wait for full release just to get it on steam so i dont double pay

red glade
#

@ashen sky true

mild sun
#

I'm sad it's only on Epic, if it were on Discord i'd buy the EA in a heartbeat

wooden quartz
#

he should be gay tbh

proper canyon
#

I mean if the epic games one is DRM free, I dont see why you cant just download it via epic and then uninstall the launcher

pastel coral
#

Completely understandable, but you can always stick around and watch the development of the game @ashen sky

#

Besides, from the little I have been here, this seems like a nice community as well

tepid wedge
#

@proper canyon updates?

wooden grail
#

Some questions about Hades- is it pausable like Transistor, or real-time only like Bastion?

proper canyon
#

Oh I'm dumb, thanks

mild sun
#

@proper canyon i don't support epic after they all but abandoned the PVE in fortnite after i'd paid $40 for it

tepid wedge
#

I am old enough to remember how people hated on steam as well at first

#

cause I did it as well 😂

proper canyon
#

Makes sense

ashen sky
#

oh yeah, if it were on steam id buy it in like right now. but i dont think i can justify buying it on a plataform ive never used and probably never will when i already have all my games on steam already

marble sphinx
#

i do hate steam but, like, it beats using five launchers

#

which is lazy of me but whatever

pastel coral
#

The Genre is traditionally turn based @wooden grail

red glade
#

My only problem is that steam is the only platform that has regional pricing

tepid wedge
#

I understand that, kinda hate launchers too

edgy heron
#

just picked up hades

wooden grail
#

Yes, but the preview vid certainly didn't look turn based

edgy heron
#

very excited to check i out

red glade
#

If epic got regional pricing, I'd buy it right now

shadow owl
#

Same I’d get it on steam. But I also have Mac and ps4 so I know I’m an outlier..pls don’t hurt me lol

mild sun
#

it's not even a problem with launchers, it's a problem i don't like Epic lol

hollow heron
#

one definition of roguelikes has strict rules that the game clearly doesn't confine with

marble sphinx
#

@red glade that too

hollow heron
#

and therefore you can assume its not turn based

tepid wedge
#

I have too much love for sgg, I would even buy this game from windows store 😄

marble sphinx
#

well they're clear that hades is a roguelite, not a roguelike proper

mild sun
#

@vestal lodge maybe disable reactions in #hades-faq ?

#

sorry to ping but i think that's relevant

cosmic plinth
#

HEY i dont mean to jump into this conversation out of nowhere but i would like to bring to everyones attention the fact that our main character kind of looks like a homestuck troll thanks for coming to my ted t

tumblr is dead so he had to make a game

lilac tundra
#

Hey does anyone know if Hades is only available on PC? I've got a mac and a ps4, and I don't know if early access supports those...

wooden grail
#

So, people who have actually played hades. Is it pausable or not?

pastel coral
#

It is only available on PC while it is in Early Access, but when it releases it will release on multiple platforms, so you can probably play it on Mac and PS4 @lilac tundra

vestal lodge
#

@wooden grail It's real time

wooden grail
#

Thanks Morgan!

vestal lodge
#

@mild sun Good call!

lilac tundra
#

Ah well. Guess I miss out on early access then

pastel coral

You can still watch the development of the game ^-^

this server's blown up in size since the release

it's crazy

You can use the command anywhere, but we'd prefer to keep topics confined more or less to the relevant channels!

pastel coral
#

Listen to the mods, they are the competent ones here (compared to me that is)

alpine ore
#

I have bought and is downloading the launcher ;-;

olive jungle
#

We do appreciate the help though, @pastel coral ! thank you for compiling the faq 😃

brisk trail
#

I just noticed the email with the game and I'm equal parts excited and scared. I trust SG to not release things they're not proud of, but early access makes me super nervous. I take it there's already been way too much discussion about it and I'm not adding much to the pile?

shadow owl
#

Whatever @pastel coral you should be honorary mod 😁

proper canyon
#

why honorary? :)

cosmic plinth
#

whens the full expected release date aka when ill be able to play it on my dinky macbook

shadow owl
#

At least for tonight until they make him a real one hah

pastel coral
#

All I did was collect questions already posted here, and the answers to make it easier to look up.
I have already done it for another game that I absolutely adore, so I have some experience in that area :P

olive jungle
#

Haha, we appreciate any and all help of course!

#

As a for a full release date, nothing on that yet

peak berry
#

new to epic launcher I bought the game but still can't download and I am using the beta launcher

pastel coral
#

But I think they should take some more time, and not take me in instantly.
It is a better decision to wait, see how I do over time, and then make a final decision once I have made it clear that I am to be trusted, and is a good candidate for the role.
Getting mod less than an hour after joining is not the best decision unless a majority of the Mod team or the people higher up can actually vouch for your abilities in the area

olive jungle
#

Check tech support!

#

There is technically a mod application process but currently we have a fairly full compliment; in the future, SGG may look for more mods though!

hollow heron
#

EA only makes me nervous if I don't have prior trust built up

kindred laurel
#

shoot, is EA going to be available for Mac soon ™ ?

mild sun
#

@Morgan, glad to be of assistance

hollow heron
#

and roguelites also have balance being super important, and there's only so far you can get without EA tbh

pastel coral
#

It will probably be closer to Release @kindred laurel, nothing confirmed yet as the game is still in an early stage

kindred laurel
pastel coral
#

They need to focus on a single platform and get the gameplay fully operational first, and then port it over to different platforms. It will only mean that you get a more polished experience on your mac once it is available to you

#

And Supergiant Games are some of the most polished, and beautiful experiences out there

#

At least from my experiences :P

winter cobalt
#

Big feel

shadow owl
#

TRUTH

unkempt storm
#

I know other people have already said it so I'm not bringing anything new to the table, but I would buy the game in a heartbeat if it was EA on Steam or if you get a Steam key when it releases there after EA. Having to buy it twice just to have it on Steam with 99.99 % of all other games in existence is kind of a bummer. I absolutely love SGG but I might just have to wait for release then.

shadow owl
#

Dumb question: hades is the son, but who is the dad in the trailer? Or is the dad Hades? I don’t remember a lot about Greek lore

sour nebula
#

is there a roadmap for hades or future updates/content planned

inner solar
#

okay so I wasnt expecting this game at all

maiden fiber
#

the dad is Hades

pastel coral
#

And they have nothing against you for that @unkempt storm, they are giving people an option to play the game early, but they also understand that their players want to get the game on their preferred storefront.
I hope you stick around to follow the development of the game, and that you can get excited for when it releases on steam ^-^

inner solar
#

and am super hype for it

hoary veldt
#

Ok just like, HYPE

vestal lodge
#

@sour nebula Not at this time, but that's a good idea

sour nebula
#

but they have content / updates planned right?

olive jungle
#

Yes

vestal lodge
#

We have many planned!

hoary veldt
#

I was so not expecting this annoucnement but when I saw thew server icon change I was like "what" and now aaaaa

sour nebula
#

ok cool gonna buy

vale brook
#

So I know the soundtrack will be up on YouTube soon but will it be added to Spotify like the past games as well?

pastel coral
#

It should be just like the other games when it releases @vale brook

unkempt storm
#

@pastel coral I know 😃 I don't have to buy it in EA and that's fine. I'll buy it day 0 on Steam and look very much forward to it!

peak berry
#

just notice the skulls on is shoulders they cerberus?

vestal lodge
#

@vale brook I imagine it'll make it to Spotify at some point in the future.

pastel coral
#

Possibly sooner if the soundtrack is complete beforehand and they can't hold it back any longer

vestal lodge
#

@unkempt storm That's respectable!

olive jungle
#

Medico, there will likely be a lot of streams and blog updates, as well as updates here from folks playing it in early access, so you can look forward to that!

hardy turtle
#

Region lock in korea 😢 when will we be able to buy this game?

vale brook
#

Awesome, I mainly listen there and I always love Darren Korb ❤

vestal lodge
#

If I ever have time I'd like to Stream it for you all 😮

pastel coral
#

O.O
Sounds awesome Morgan ^-^

shadow owl
#

Yes pls!

hoary veldt
#

And I don't know if anyone's asked yet but is there any plan to bring Hades to switch too?

peak berry
#

so I heard two voices in this trailer? So more voice actors?

pastel coral
#

It will be released on multiple platforms after release @hoary veldt, because of how important the switch is for indie titles, I will almost guarantee that it will release there

hoary veldt
#

aaaaaa I'm just so stoked my night got like 20x better now

pastel coral
#

But keep in mind that nothing is confirmed in terms of the other platforms

olive lagoon
#

kid just hades for a while

olive jungle
#

Right - no word yet, and I'm sure it will depend partly on where the switch is once the game is fully released, and what the console market looks like

shadow owl
#

I’m heading off- but I’m so pumped for this game. Love everything SG does and can’t wait to play and be immersed in another world and cry over another story ❤️

hoary veldt
#

^^^^^^^^^^^^

pastel coral
#

See you later ❤

noble bronze
#

Will hades see a console release during early access?

pastel coral
#

No

cloud lagoon
#

refer to faq

noble bronze
#

I didn't see it in the faq on the site, sorry

cloud lagoon
#

oh no?

pastel coral
#

The Early access is for the PC version, but they plan to release on multiple platforms after the Early Access

olive jungle
#

I don't think there's any word right now but my uninformed opinion would be "no"

cloud lagoon
#

let me get that part

olive jungle
#

Yeah

placid ridge
#

If I buy the game early access on Epic, will that be transferrable to a Steam version later down the line? Or will I have to buy it again to have on Steam?

noble bronze
#

Does more platforms mean it'll eventually make it to steam as well? I want to get in on the early access, but I'd rather not rebuy the game if it makes it to steam later

placid ridge
#

Same here

noble bronze
#

lol, same question

pastel coral
#

You will have to buy it again on the new platforms

void tangle
#

On a follow up, if I buy the game when it inevitably comes to Steam, will I have to buy it again when it comes to Switch like I had to do for Bastion and Transistor?

placid ridge
#

I'd love to support and provide feedback and I'd love to see what they've got in store

pastel coral
#

yes Rurikid

placid ridge
#

@void tangle I would assume so

void tangle
#

I understand that cashgrabs are cool and all, but why?

placid ridge
#

The difference machines thing makes sense

void tangle
#

My Epic account is linked to my Nintendo account and I'm sure Epic could link to Steam as well.

placid ridge
#

Game has to be ported and changed

#

But the cross-distribution-platform thing is a little odd

versed pike
#

does anyone know if its coming to consoles or is this going to be a PC exclusive?

vestal lodge
versed pike
#

my bad!

clever flume
#

@void tangle buying games on different platforms generally doesn’t transfer

void tangle
#

Yeah I get that, and I'm really not trying to be difficult. I think I've bought Bastion 10 times by now for myself and friends. It's just a quality of life feature at this point.

clever flume
#

And I don’t think it’s fair to call it a cash grab

pastel coral
#

It is at least what we currently know @void tangle, some things might change during development, but at this point we have to go with the limited information we have

olive jungle
#

There is extra labor that goes into porting, of course, and distribution fees. Not as many as there used to be for physical distribution. Rights issues and distribution of profits probably determines a lot of where stuff ends up and whether it can be transferred

vestal lodge
#

@void tangle It's very reasonable to want to wait for the game to release for your platform of choice!

placid ridge
#

I honestly might buy it twice

alpine ore
#

I already am

brisk trail
#

@clever flume honestly I actually would prefer to give the $20 to supergiant directly without Epic as an intermediary, it's one of the things that make me nervous about EA. I don't need yet another game launcher in my life.

alpine ore
#

So much getting it on steam its my main platform

#

but i just gotta support my favs from the start

hardy turtle
#

Anybody knows when it would be available in Korea? It's region locked for now 😢

olive jungle
#

@vestal lodge

pastel coral
#

We sadly don't have any info on that now, that might be something the Devs can speak of, either that or it is connected to Epic Games

placid ridge
#

Yeah I really want to support the game and get it to completion for other people

olive jungle
#

@hardy turtle Is the region locking an Epic Games issue?

vestal lodge
#

@hardy turtle I'm not sure!

void tangle
#

I don't know it's strange, I don't mind buying extra copies for friends and family but because I bought the games on Steam I really don't want to buy them on the Switch as well, even though I feel like the experience would be better served on the Switch.

hardy turtle
#

Ok Thanks anyway 😃

indigo tartan
#

GUYS

void tangle
#

Ok... I take back all of my complaints. MingoFrog must be in real pain right now.

#

I don't know what I'd do.

indigo tartan
#

sorry for the caps lock rofl, i'm so happy for this game

vestal lodge
#

@hardy turtle We'll look into it for sure

pastel coral
#

It is not strange, you want to bring the game with you where you are, but unfortunately we just don't have any information that can answer you in a satisfying way now @void tangle

azure edge
#

Darn you, Supergiant, releasing a new game in the middle of exam period. ;_;
Just kidding. I love you guys and your high quality content.

#

Who needed sleep anyways?

void tangle
#

Yes I know @pastel coral, like I said I'm really not trying to be combatative I love SuperGiant, I'm really just expressing aspirations at this point

hardy turtle
#

@vestal lodge Thank you 😃 I will be waiting for good news!

pastel coral
#

All good

void tangle
#

Let's be honest, I'm going to buy it anyway

indigo tartan
#

so basically it will be a sort of Binding of Isaac? Where you play, slay, unlock skills, die and repeat? I love that type of gameplay

solar coral
#

I hope the story doesn’t get old though,

#

I hope that the variance will be an opportunity for new sub plots perhaps?

vestal lodge
#

@indigo tartan That's a pretty good comparison

olive jungle
#

That was kind of my immediate worry too but I'm sure there's something in store!

vestal lodge
#

at least of the core loop of the game!

solar coral
#

Different side characters each run( to a degree) I hope

pastel coral
#

Binding of Isaac, Enter the gundeon and things like that

#

That is the style this game is made for (I think)

olive jungle
#

There seems to be an emphasis on playing a lot of different ways in the FAQ so I imagine that was a focus

#

can't say much until I try it out of course, but

solar coral
#

I think I can get it on Sunday hopefully

#

I really can’t wait

indigo tartan
#

@vestal lodge okay so, I think someone is going to fail his next exam...

solid shale
#

you know nothing 😦 i'm going to pass

vestal lodge
#

@void tangle I hear you, and understand where you're coming from! Unfortunately I don't think there's too much more we can say either way about how something like platform-transfers would work, since we aren't technically platform owners, or operating at that level.

Awww @modern valley ❤

modern valley

Darren Korb is killing it with the music

hoary veldt
#

HNG

#

gonna go listen to that ost on youtube now

pastel coral
#

I will pick it up when I get the time

paper peak
#

I just have the trailer on loop lmao

red glade
#

Since it's a roguelite, how similar are the mechanics to isaac because that is the one ive played the most

#

are there items that change attacks

#

infinite replayability?

paper peak
#

well it looks like our grounded demigod boi can pick up to three variants of a cool thing Zeus hands him

#

so yeah seems like it

pastel coral
#

@vestal lodge Maybe you should explain some things here

paper peak
#

Lot of build variety by the looks of things

vestal lodge
#

@hardy turtle What is the exact error message you're getting?

silver prairie
#

Just Curious are there plans to realese an art book for hades at some point ?

vestal lodge
#

Or is the game just not appearing in the Epic Store?

olive jungle
#

SGG hasn't released any art books of any games so far; I'd say no

silver prairie
#

Bummer oh well still a worthy investment mabye one day

sacred nymph
#

they are the worst releasing a game while my computer is in the shop cccc

rigid pond
#

Any hope of it coming to steam at some point? Because I really don't want to split up my stuff to a new launcher.

vestal lodge
#

@red glade There are items that change attacks! It is infinitely playable! We're going to be adding much more content as the game evolves too 😄

#

@sacred nymph My bad!

hardy turtle
#

@vestal lodge Yeah when I connect to www.PlayHades.com It says "This games is not available in your region yet."

sacred nymph
#

The graphics are really out of the Park this time you guys

red glade
#

@vestal lodge Wow I'm beyond excited, an infinte game by supergiant

vestal lodge
#

Thanks @hardy turtle !!!!!

hardy turtle
#

😃

sacred nymph
#

@vestal lodge I’ll forgive you this time...!

quick sun
#

just launched the game and i am alrdy amazed by the music!

sacred nymph
#

I can’t wait to add the pin you guys make of this to my collection.

quick sun
#

so goood~

pastel coral
#

Hopefully you will get to play the game in no time @hardy turtle ^-^
In the meanwhile enjoy the community

sacred nymph
#

Darren really comes through every time.

quick sun
#

y honestly

red glade
#

It sucks that epic store doesn't have regional pricing. I'm sadly going to have to wait for the steam release to play this one.

olive jungle
#

Does it not? It was showing 2,100 jpy for me

sacred nymph
#

I’ll be drawing fanart tomorrow youuuuu just wait

red glade
#

Does not for India

olive jungle
#

Oh 😦

pastel coral
#

Aww, what a bummer @red glade, hope they get regional pricing before then ❤

hardy turtle
#

Thank you @pastel coral I'm just glad that next SGG game already came out! I Thought It will be out like 2020.

wanton wasp
#

Hades isn't available in my region.

olive jungle
#

It's a new store, so I guess it makes sense it's not everywhere yet

pastel coral
#

Where are you located @wanton wasp

olive jungle
#

@vestal lodge another region lock

sacred nymph
#

I’ve only had hades for two hours but

void tangle
#

This is somewhat a facetious question but on a scale from 1-10 how much will Hades be better than Diablo Immortal?

wanton wasp
#

@pastel coral mainland China

pastel coral
#

Ok, so it might be something connected to the Asian markets

olive jungle
#

Seems to be fine in Japan

red glade
#

I played Transistor because of TotalBiscuit and became a fan of SGG ever since, makes me sad he won't get to play Hades

pastel coral
#

When it comes to Korea and China I mean

olive jungle
#

Yeah haha

pastel coral
#

It is sad, but at least I got to see Genna snark over the game awards this year @red glade

vestal lodge
#

@red glade That makes me so so sad too

silent raft
#

I too found out about Supergiant from Totalbiscuit's Transistor video

#

RIP

edgy heron
#

Hey uh maybe I’m just stupid but how do I return back to Tartarus after I die?

pastel coral
#

TB was an amazing person, he had his flaws, but he was always there for the game developers that deserved the support, and he always stood up for the consumer

#

He was a giant in the game industry, and I don't see anyone taking his place anytime soon

#

But this is not really on topic is it

spare escarp
#

no not really. i mean we're talking about a dead person in the hades channel though so.. m maybe a little?

pastel coral
#

Ohhh, it is just perfect considering the humor the person had

olive jungle
#

sky > land/computer > purgatory > hell
🤔

crystal bolt
#

The soundtrack to this game is amazing

#

(it's a given, but still)

lusty cosmos
#

as usual

#

yeah

#

gotta love that darren

#

always delivers, never the same

undone wasp
#

Okay but we're gonna pretend that was a proper Supergiant trailer without any Ashley Barrett? @primal plinth

spare escarp
#

im honestly sirprised there wasnt any singing in the new trailer

undone wasp
#

85% because of it.

spare escarp
#

guess they didnt wana reveal all their cards just yet

lusty cosmos
#

Their backrow is full and it's all hidden.

undone wasp
#

The held cards better be some Ashley vocals for a playable female character. 😛

olive jungle
#

Ashley has been an in-universe singer for THREE GAMES IN A ROW, maybe she's tired 😂 😂

spare escarp
#

right??

undone wasp
#

It'll be like a paul mccartney solo album without her.

lusty cosmos
#

inb4 15 years later "oh hey it's the supergiant games singing girl"

spare escarp
#

it'd be like cereal without milk

#

dry

lusty cosmos
#

I guess they're dropping the milk before the cereal though

#

those freaks

spare escarp
#

youre right

olive jungle
#

absolute lads

nimble glacier
#

Found out about Hades just a few minutes ago and hit purchase with zero hesitation. Can't wait, keep up the great work Supergiant.

pale slate
#

Recently bought in to Hades as soon as I found out about it. Does anyone know if there is controller support currently?

olive jungle
#

There is, yes!

crystal bolt
#

That's what I love most about Supergiant. Most would buy them without even blinking

olive jungle
#

All controllers should be supported

lusty cosmos
#

It's kind of weird

#

I'd say it's a quality>quantity case but

#

one game every two years consistently?

quick sun
#

i mean they dont dissappoint ever so why hestitate? :D

lusty cosmos
#

while they're still super good?

#

what a grind

spare escarp
#

here's hoping they have better lgbt rep lmfao

olive jungle
#

small, dedicated team with reasonable expectations of what they can make reusing a lot of architecture between games

undone wasp
#

Yeah they even make a basketball visual novel one of my most memorable games. Instant purchase.

spare escarp
#

some things don't need to be subtle or left up to interpretation

lusty cosmos
#

I guess they do make it reusing architecture now that I think about it

paper peak
#

oh my god

#

i expected like

olive jungle
#

they reuse a TON of architecture between games, yeah

paper peak
#

the one piece of trailer OST

#

THERE'S LIKE 20 TRACKS

lusty cosmos
#

wait what

quick sun
#

idm though, as long as they do it right?

paper peak
#

DARREN

#

YOU GOD

lusty cosmos
#

okay actualyl nevermind i'll hold myself off+

spare escarp
#

some of pyre's canon pairings still leave a bad taste in my mouth

digital ice
#

Darren be workin’ hard

lusty cosmos
#

also @quick sun reusing stuff isn't innately bad yeah

olive jungle
#

yeah for sure!

#

i'm just saying what it means is they're more freed from technical concerns

#

the resources they're using are flexible enough to allow for multiple kinds of games

lusty cosmos
#

yeah I assumed you meant background stuff, engine level stuff

#

I have yet to spot a reused asset

olive jungle
#

right, no i mean technical stuff haha

tepid yacht
#

hi there supergiant, thank you so much for making everyone in this game incredibly hot

olive jungle
#

though there is asset reuse in terms of some effects?

#

lighting effects, dust effects, etc

quick sun
#

also they got their distinctive artstyle and the so incredibly awesome music!

lusty cosmos
#

can we adress what @tepid yacht said for a sec

#

God DAMN jen

olive jungle
#

yes i agree

#

god DAMN jen

tepid yacht
#

^^^^^^^

olive jungle
#

can we get a round of "HOT DAMN"s for Jen's art?

tepid yacht
#

yeah, jen's art keeps getting better and better

olive jungle
#

for the underworld bishies

lusty cosmos
#

emphasis on hot

olive jungle
#

hot damn,

lusty cosmos
#

hot damn

crystal bolt
#

Speaking of hot, this album is nothing but fire

lusty cosmos
#

but yeah

spare escarp
#

Hawt damn?

lusty cosmos
#

I'm kind of worried they're gonna lose a bunch of progress in a giant fire in their studios

pastel quarry
#

hey SG, just wanted to pop by and thank you for this awesome new game squirtooh

unborn notch
#

I just played for an hour and I'm already loving it so much!

stone ermine
#

YOU HAVE MY TWENTY!

lusty cosmos
#

I'm assuming it's an Early Access in the style of Secrets of Grindea?

silent raft
lusty cosmos
#

also @olive jungle

olive jungle
#

yesss?

lusty cosmos
#

cheers for watching over chat instead of playing

stone ermine
#

some sounds and vfx from pyre in here

crystal bolt
#

Lament of Orpheus is fantastic

lusty cosmos
#

someone's gotta do it

silent raft
#

He's going higher than Ashley did in We All Become

unborn notch
#

I'll buy this game as many times as I need domyLove

olive jungle
#

@lusty cosmos I'm at work lmao

#

And not volunteer mod work

#

Sitting at a desk work

lusty cosmos
#

oof

#

i forgot work was a thing

olive jungle
#

I can get away with having chat open, but not with gaming

lusty cosmos
#

lmao playing at office desk work

olive jungle
#

God I wish

#

But alas.

crystal bolt
#

Favorite piece so far is Orpheus and Final Expense

buoyant plank
#

hey ive been playing all the supergiant a mac for a while do you guys have any idea if its gonna come to that or is this one just going to be on windows for a while?

lusty cosmos
#

god i want to click that on SO hard but i'll restrain myself

#

@buoyant plank I think that's adressed in the FAQ?

olive jungle
#

@buoyant plank No word yet, sorry!

lusty cosmos
#

nvm

#

i'm thinking on platforms

#

or uh

olive jungle
#

Yeah

lusty cosmos
#

yeah

silent raft
#

Getting some big time Bastion vibe from Out of Tartarus

buoyant plank
#

thats ok! ill find a way to play! I have loved every supergiant game so far, some of my favs of all time tbh

crystal bolt
#

Just got done listening to that one ^

lusty cosmos
#

I mean personally it seems to be the exact engine from transistor with some code changed so I wouldnt see why not

crystal bolt
#

I think that just squeezed in for favorite. It keeps changing lol

stone ermine
#

how do i get out of the first room?

lusty cosmos

#

Hello all. I just played the game for a little while, and it looks so good in person.

lusty cosmos
#

I wonder how much story content they have out in the early access

olive jungle
#

build up your horizontal speed by backwards long jumping until you overcome the speed barrier,

#

According to Morgan, "a good bit" haha

ionic valve
#

does hades have cloud saves? if so, are they an epic games launcher thing

lusty cosmos
#

keep in mind to only do a half A press

olive jungle
#

But there is a definitive end to it right now

unborn notch
#

I can't wait to buy this soundtrack on CD and Vinyl too domyGasm

lusty cosmos
#

I dont remember Epic Games having cloud saves

#

personally

vestal lodge
#

@pastel quarry Thanks for playing!

crystal bolt
#

Oh, so there's an actual end to the current version?

dawn leaf
#

yo where can i buy the soundtrack its sooo GOOOD

olive jungle
#

Well, you can only progress to a certain point, yes

lusty cosmos
#

early access soundtrack GWskarzzLUL

crystal bolt
#

Oh, pfft, gotcha.

olive jungle
#

It's replayable, I'm sure, but after a certain point you can't progress further because, early access, you know.

lusty cosmos
#

but yeah it semes to be a Secrets of Grindea kind of early access

#

seems*

vestal lodge
#

@ionic valve Cloud saves would be an Epic side thing. We're hoping to find out if and when they will exist

dawn leaf
#

StS has a great Soundtrack and that games still in Early Access

ionic valve
#

cool, thanks for the info morgan. me and another dev were wondering if they were offering that yet

crystal bolt
#

Interpreted it as "you can end, credits roll, then Supergiant gives you a stomach-puncher of a send-off song"

hollow bane
#

Im kind of curious if we'll get a steam key for buying early access.

dawn leaf
#

Mr Morgan Man I want the Soundtrack to ur newest game where can i buy that

hollow bane
#

*when the full game is released

unborn notch
#

Goodnight and thanks for making this one of the best nights ever, while dealing with some tough family medical situations. I'm loving what I've played so far and I'm excited to play more as soon as I can!

vestal lodge
#

@dawn leaf You have to settle for YouTube for now!

#

@unborn notch Thanks so much for checking it out!

dawn leaf
#

😦

limpid vault
#

what the most op weapon you guys think :?

#

I like bow

vestal lodge
#

@dawn leaf I'm not sure what we're going to do, since the game isn't done there will be more music.

lusty cosmos
#

probably a gun, assuming there is one in the game at some point

outer mason
#

Trying to get a feel for the bow but I like the base sword so far

vestal lodge
#

It wouldn't be fair to sell a soundtrack when there will be more music!

dawn leaf
#

thx

outer mason
#

havent gotten too far in yet

grand yoke
#

My god this game is awesome.

chilly stump
#

(My fave weapon is the shield but idk if it's overpowered...)

hoary veldt
#

ok I caved and bought Hades now I can get that 20 back later

limpid vault
#

is speear good

#

1 more key to get the spear

modest dirge
#

im really enjoying watching people stream hehhh 😄

lusty cosmos
#

It's all about gamestyle

olive jungle
#

I'm a bow girl through and through, if there's a bow in a game i gotta use it no matter how good or bad it is

vestal lodge
#

@olive jungle The bow is maybe my fave too

outer mason
#

Man this skull spawning enemy is rough

hollow bane
#

This game has no DRM, ala Steam?

vestal lodge
#

No DRM!

lusty cosmos
#

CHEERS ON THAT

hollow bane
#

wow.

limpid vault
#

bow is good

torpid forge
#

for some reason the game is queued and won't install

lusty cosmos
#

sounds like an Epic games thing. Restart it?

#

Either that or their servers are a bit on load, which I kind of doubt

vestal lodge
#

@hollow bane If you wanted DRM reallllllllllllll bad.. I'm sorry

hollow bane
#

stupid question: I dont need to use the Epic Games client to open Hades?

#

Ha lol.

torpid forge
#

nvm i just needed to restart

#

ty @lusty cosmos

vestal lodge
#

@hollow bane You'll need it to download and update the game

lusty cosmos
#

DRM free means no epic games requiered yeah

vestal lodge
#

but it can be launched directly from Windows

hollow bane
#

@vestal lodge Yeah it is sad. I really would like to have a Derpy Rainbow Manatee.

lusty cosmos
#

Actually does steam always put its DRM on its games or is that optional for devs?

hollow bane
#

I htink its the former.

#

you need steam installed to open/update it

modern elm
#

Early access from Giants? Does this mean that soon we will hear "We are happy to become part of Microsoft family!"?

lusty cosmos
#

Yeah because they need the money for development right now GWskarzzLUL

hollow bane
#

i mean, given this game is a roguelite, i can see why community feedback is useful

vestal lodge
#

@lusty cosmos Similarly you need Steam to purchase or update games, but for our games you can run them directly from windows

lusty cosmos
#

Oh wow, I did not notice the last three titles didnt even have steam DRM incorporated

last jackal
#

I died from leftover bombs after beating the bomb twins 😭

hollow bane
#

Does hades has controller support?

olive jungle
#

It does!

#

Same controller support as Pyre, I think is what was said

alpine ore
#

Im legit dowloading right nowww

olive jungle
#

We use the same controller support at Pyre, so PS4, Xbox One, 360, Switch Pro, XInput should work

lusty cosmos
#

As someone that pirated the last three games when I was on a bad economic point to then buy them later when I was doing better, I really do love the fact that Hades also has no DRM. DRM-free is rare nowadays.

#

thank god for that FAQ also

hollow bane
#

yarr

vale brook
#

Nyx is Artemis

limpid vault
#

The bomb twin is OP

lusty cosmos
#

Does the game have any mechanics that stand out btw?

limpid vault
#

Nerf pls :(

lusty cosmos
#

Oh yeah, also, does it actually have rogue-lite/like mechanics on it?

#

a.k.a. "just progression between deaths"

marble sphinx
#

oh, the ost's up, nice
