The reason they lowered it is for their kickstarter people who supported it and pay their dues. They put it on their exclusive forum with the don't tell others at the end of it. They even said afterwards if they send they their email and paypal account they would reimburse the 99 cents.Obviously someone didn't listen lol. So now everyone gets the reap the benefits of this.
While I can't agree more that everyone that will buy it now gets the benefit of all the future content for a buck, at the end of the day the developer is hurt. As much as I love playing games on my iOS devices (iphone 5 and mini w/retina) the games on ios will continue to be mediocre with a gem coming way too few and far between. I really would have loved to see this game take off. The graphics are some of the best I've seen on these mobile devices and our stuff in our pockets is so powerful if developers use the tools to make great graphical games, but when you see something like Clash of Clans, and Candy Crush which is just a bejeweled clone making millions why spend resources on great games when you can create a cash cow?
Bought the season pass right before coming back here to post that it's live in the US. Feel guilty now. But you still need to realize that people reading forums like this are a small minority of iOS gamers so I hope that they still do well with the future chapters.

The more exposure the game gets the better they can do in future sales. From an indie developer they really did a fantastic job with the first story of what will be a five part game. jerseydvd Well-Known Member Nov 25, 2009 47 0 0 #29 jerseydvd, Jan 31, 2014 Need to play first.....

I just bought the game and I think it will take a while before I can complete my download. Lousy connection today. What timing. radchad1 Well-Known Member Nov 27, 2008 575 5 0 Accountant Lake Zurich, Illinois #34 radchad1, Jan 31, 2014 Technically they are not really in a tight spot as the game was funded through kickstarter. In terms of making money for their product to create future titles and development they might not be so hot. The 24 hour sale was to support the people that helped them reach the kickstarter goal and provide the future chapters at a lower price. One of their people that helped fund them screwed them over by letting out that email on the sale. undeadcow Well-Known Member Dec 4, 2010 9,493 2 36 Houston, TX #35 undeadcow, Jan 31, 2014 Surely these developers are not moronic or naive enough to think no one would notice the IAP price drop in a world where IAP price drop trackers and KickStarter "leaks" are common place. I suspect they are laughing all the way to the bank on this ploy. radchad1 Well-Known Member Nov 27, 2008 575 5 0 Accountant Lake Zurich, Illinois #36 radchad1, Jan 31, 2014 I kinda of agreed with your comment. You still need to download the game at $4.99 and then the IAP. So they are hopefully making money considering apple is charging 30% of the sales as a cost of doing business. So they are making new sales that they wouldn't have otherwise obtained through the sale. I just hope they can bring out more than one game and not some crap FTP like EA has been bringing out lately. neku233 Active Member Jan 23, 2014 30 0 6 #37 neku233, Jan 31, 2014 Last edited: Jan 31, 2014 24 hours Xexist Well-Known Member May 6, 2010 2,440 1 0 Canada #38 Xexist, Jan 31, 2014 Same here. Great reviews so I am sure I will love it, I also feel a little bad if this was not supposed to be a 'known' sale so I really hope the devs sell a million or two of this IAP so it ends up worth their while.
