The headline on this kotaku article is a heck of a thing

This Retro Platformer Is Sapphic Super Mario And I Can't Wait For Its Full Release

Kitsune Tails has a charming story but still has some issues to fix

@eniko Nice. Can't wait for the release šŸ˜ƒ . How much will it cost on Steam? Just asking because neither Steam nor the website mention a price yet.
Show threadEniko (moved āž” gamedev.place)Jun 9, 2024
@anopka yeah i think we put that info out there yesterday but im not sure anyone news source has picked it up? i'll have to check with the people who tell me what i can and can't say and get back to you with the price
Show threadEniko (moved āž” gamedev.place)Jun 20, 2024
@anopka finally got word that i can talk about this and it's gonna be 19.99 USD, not sure about other currencies but i think euros are also somewhere around there
Show threadAnopkaJun 20, 2024

@eniko It will probably be 19,99 EUR then.

At the current exchange rate it would actually be 18,68 EUR, but I think Steam will rather set it to 19,99 EUR instead.

@eniko Since you mentioned Linux: Should the demo work under Linux already as well? šŸ¤” Because when I tried two days ago, I couldn't get it to work. :( And yes, that includes trying multiple Proton variants.
Show threadEniko (moved āž” gamedev.place)Jun 8, 2024
@njamster it should work using proton. I know it runs on Steam Deck and others have run it on Linux
Show threadnjamster Jun 8, 2024
@eniko Mhm, will give it another try then on occasion. Thanks!

@njamster can confirm it working on Pop!_OS 22.04. Let me know what distro you're running and what the problem looks like, and I'm happy to see if I can reproduce it.

@eniko the demo was neat, but that inertia isn't fun for me, the controls feel too heavy for my tastes šŸ˜©

also please please please separate confirm/cancel buttons from other actions for rebinding

@13xforever I mean, the inertia is how Mario platformers from that era play
