I couldn't resist anymore and just figured out how to pay on Amazon Payments to support this kickstarter. Hopefully it gets funded.

We really appreciate this. :) We're absolutely dominating Steam Greenlight  (our stats are showing that just for Sunday, we've achieved five or six times more votes than the average top 100 game). If we can get greenlit, we're well on our way. :D

Anyway, continue to spread the word, and get those Greenlight votes in. We'll make this game a reality.

So I just saw the Slimepocalypse kickstarter update. If every creature gets equally unique capabilities... Man. Just. Mindblown.

Now, a question about the 500$ reward tier: Is the price of a 1000x1000 private world always going to be in that range, or is that only for this specific kickstarter reward tier that includes many other things? Because 500$ is rather very steep for someone who wants a private world to share with no more than a dozen friends or somesuch... Edit: Though I admit I have no clue what "1000x1000" scale means without having actually played the game, it might be far larger than I am imagining it to be. I'm basically going by what I know of size in games like Minecraft and Terraria, where a length of 1000 is large but certainly not 500$ worth of large.

It's literally 1000 tiles by 1000 tiles. If you've played the sandboxes, you know what a tile is. :)

Also, you aren't paying for the private sandbox. You're donating to the game, and getting a reward for supporting the project. When the game is released, we'll be offering developer toolkit licenses which will allow you to build your own game world. Also, you'll be able to have a private sandbox regardless, it just won't be 1000x1000.

Again, you aren't buying a 1000x1000 world. That's not what the rewards are for.

Can I teach the slimes magic so that they can shoot lasers out of the giant slimebot's hands? Or alternatively, have him hold a human mage and use him like a wand or something.

Something tells me you should refer to my previous comment.

I.. Oh my.

I highly doubt we'll implement that. :)

It's okay, someone else will.

On a different note, we must pool together to form a B12 guild.

On a third note, I am disappoint that I am no longer 50% of the 10$ pledgers.

Let me guess. A group of dwarves?

I was thinking more of a lifeguard guild, personally.
