Release id #161041 : Sam's Journey +D

Well, in quick testing with an reu-less NTSC machine, it seems to playtest just fine on the first few screens, save for a few small occasional screen scroll glitches that aren't a hinderence to gameplay. So, I'm wondering why the REU is needed for the NTSC machine, and what areas of the PAL version of the game are completely unplayable on NTSC?

OH NOES, I am an intrawebz lamer /o\

Meh, if they are so determined to lose possible sales, who am I to disagree...

Gotta agree that Protovision site is very incomplete and chaotic with tons of unnecessary sections and subsections ;)

Nah, I don't intend to buy it. I don't play games at all. I spend about 20€ on a drunk weekend, which is much more fun for me than a C64 game.

But based on some of the reactions here, I am quite certain that people who'd actually pay 20€ for it, might think that the digital copy costs 45€ as well. Only if the way to get hold of a digital copy wasn't so obscured...

There is also that they can't sell digital downloads from the Protovision shop to EU (except to Germany)

So probably easiest to just head to https://protovision.itch.io/

thanks for the link Groepaz. google addressed me here: https://www.protovision.games/shop/product_info.php?products_id..
19.99 is still a bit too high, but much more reasonable. of course it's my own point of view, license owner can sell it at 200.- if they want.

Personally, I never said it's expensive (I wouldn't even care if it would be sold for 5 times as much), only that I understand that some people who would like to buy it might find it expensive.
Still, I don't want to pay even 5€ for something I'd inspect for 15 minutes out of curiosity, and then forget forever. 1€? Well maybe, but that's still about a beer's worth - so I'd most likely hesitate.

why don't they sell to EU but rather Germany only? Is this kind of regulation or something?
I don't have problem buying on itch.io, just curious?
I'll buy physical package anyway.
