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? |

Quote: 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.
The VAT differs from country to country, the European tax law for digital goods requires to handle them separately, and Protovision probably doesn't want to deal with that. |

They do only accept orders from Germany? I'm puzzled, because JTR just mentioned issues with Paypal for German "but not international customers". Guess the confusing point is that they did not manage to keep the Protovision website in order. Those who are interested might contact them per mail ;) |

@JB: 20 Euros?!? That could either mean where you live drinks are very cheap or you don't really live up to your groups name ;-) |

the EU laws are very funky. they require online sales to calculate taxes according to each single EU country - which makes it quite a mess.
and yes, 20 euro wont even get you drunk for one evening here, let alone an entire evening :=) perhaps jb is drinking gasoline? (that would explain a few things =P) |

Quoting Groepaz20 euro wont even get you drunk for one evening here, let alone an entire evening According to the intarwebs, 20 EUR buy you about 3 litres of Düsseldorf Alt in a pub. I think that'd make me more than a bit tipsy. :) |

Yeah well, I usually buy cheap, discount stuff. Paying more than that for alcohol is a waste of money if my main goal is a blackout, right? |

You could get 40 0.5l Löwenbräus for that money here (Hungary). Or about 25-30 in a cheap pub. Kinda enough for a night. And Löwenbräu isn't even a too bad beer. |

The pub where I'm regular sells Löwenbräu for 250 hungarian moneys (0.8). That means, even with tipping the bartender, I could drink about 10 beers per night (a beer every half an hour makes up to 5 hours, that's not too much), if we count the weekend as two nights (Friday and Saturday). Now, 10 beers won't get me too drunk, but if I spend all the 20 on one night and drink a bit faster, that's about 20 quick beers and a guaranteed knockout. |
