At the moment, we plan to have robot(parts) being a member of various brands (Apple, Samsung and Sony's futuristic tongue-in-cheek equivalent).
Mock n' Trash, Unsung and Sorry?  :V  (kidding)

I regrettably don't have any money to throw at you.  :<  But, uh.  Can we have Automato pets?  Cuz' maaan I would love automato pets.

Don't worry if you can't pledge money.

Just spread the word about our game and we're just as grateful! Tell 10 friends and mention it in some communities.

We're getting a lot of questions about the item system, so I suppose I have to make a video to explain how it works in detail. Will keep you all updated!

Well, since you're an honest-to-goodness dev trying to make a real MMO, from what I can tell, I wish you luck!

Would've donated, but credit card's down in the zeroes.

I wouldn't classify myself as "personally excited", but I can certainly put myself in the range of "have faith in the dev team that they can pull it off".  Sounds less like a mad scheme, and more like a perfectly valid product.

The kickstarter bit is, as always, questionable.  But that's none of my business.  I'll certainly mention it to friends who are likely to be into the idea, though!  (Which might not be many--we've kinda sworn off MMOs.)

Best of luck!

Shakkara why is there what appears to be a spambot here advertising your product?

I think someone's making a lame joke. No one would program a spambot to find a thread about the game and make an OP-like post in it.

At least, I hope not. That's kind of ridiculous. Although much more polite than making new threads or derailing others.

They're not advertising Panzer Pets, they are advertising their gaming website.  It's very sneaky.

We have no clue, we're not connected at all with that website. He seems to be spamming it on different forums as well. My guess is that he spams those links, so that when people google for Panzer pets, their site comes up high in the search results, which is what is currently happening.

The website even has a play now button, while the game isn't available. And it's not linking to our kickstarter page anywhere so we don't benefit from this spam in any way.

Sooooooo...
Its not only harmful to your reputation, but also useless as advertisement for you?

That just sucks. Maybe you could contact them or something?

I have backed you on kickstarter. As a fellow game dev, I wish you luck!

It's not an embark so much as seven dwarves having a simultaneous strange mood and going off to build an artifact fortress that menaces with spikes of awesome and hanging rings of death.

Thanks for all the support so far!

We just released our second update, this time featuring the random dungeon generation!

While it's not as impressive as Dwarf Fortress, it is a pretty cool thing to have in an MMO, to ensure things remain fresh.
