Can only give my 2 cents, but match 3 = immediate NOPE.

Everything is tracking for us to have a very strong beta by the end of the year (we started 1st of MAY). Then polish in January and launch first week of February. Of course that will depend on Nutaku's own launch schedule at the time too.
Regarding Crystal Maidens, I just scanned the thread. What I got from it was that they appear to have gone into soft launch with something that was not ready or didn't have enough content. Then they basically disappeared! If that's correct.... it's a weird one for an indie to do unless they are getting external pressure. We'll avoid that sort of experimental soft-launch, we'll only use that short period to test Nutaku integration with CSL.
I'm glad you're taking the Crystal Maidens lesson seriously. The last thing you want to do is piss off your potential players before they even get a chance to play your game. And then compound the problem by making it worse. I would've been interested in playing it because the art looked fantastic, but to adapt a saying, 'no matter how hot she looks, someone somewhere is sick of her shit.'
I know the team and they're still planning to launch this year I believe. It's just being polished a little more for the past few weeks
Wanted to share a little update on how the game is shaping up.
We still have a lot more polishes to add, there are no hero power animations in here and the tile movement timing is off but you get a pretty good idea of the fluidity. This video was captured in the Nutaku Dev sandbox, which we fully connected to this week
The next 2 weeks we'll finish most menus and make a few videos to show how that works too, hope you like
Looks pretty cool for me. Cant wait to play. How many girls will be there?
Thanks
We'll be launching with 40 girls, all of them with completely unique abilities that impact gameplay a lot. We already have 70 coded (no art yet), but we'll be waiting till after launch to see what rate of release makes the most sense for the new ones. It's probably going to be 2 or 4 new heroes a month.
