Feel free! Getting e-mails from fans and readers that want to see a game covered is, I'm sure, far more meaningful than e-mails from folks trying to shill their own product.

Our first interview article!

And a great one, at that!

Our first interview article!

I see that says preview in the URL, is there time to get him to correct the bit about "3D graphics" near the start of paragraph 6?

[Mookzen]

I think this is the best time possible for a follow-up interview with http://www.roguelikeradio.com/, an open-source, free roguelike on kickstarter is a big deal for the community as a whole even. They have also already shown interest in the game before and had an interview so it's a sure-fire way to spread the word it is.

63% already and still days and days to go. This is looking pretty good.

I sent an email to www.tigsource.com guys now as well, and updated my pledge to add another dollar.  (you know why)

Our first interview article!

Nice article, I do feel though there should have been mention that it is a fork from Cataclysm and it's history, right now anyone looking at that will just think it's you three guys and some few other contributors which I feel is a bit disingenuous, not to say that you guys haven't done great work but accreditation is a requirement. Not too much of a bid deal though, especially as I have never heard of the jace hall show

Also CBM means Compact Bionics Module, durr durr durr.

Also the article writes doesn't seem to get what you mean by 3D, you has confuzzled him by mentioning 3d and tile-sets close together so he assumes 3d graphics (which I think is not the case yesh?)

[RedWarrior0]

Oh god 3d graphics would be intense.

We're planning on posting an update on the History of Cataclysm, which will include a lot of the details of that and hopefully some friendly words from Whales, and we're also setting up a Q&A with our supporters, so if you want to ask questions of that sort you'll get the chance soon.

It's not. I've sent him an e-mail about it, so hopefully it will be corrected soon.

Wait, it's only been 3-4 days since the ks launched and you've already had your coder bow out?  That doesn't really give me huge faith in my pledge.

Where did you hear that?

Yeah, I haven't heard that at all.

"You'll probably be hearing more from Sean in the future. He's been ready to dive in full time if something happens to Ethan, or if we raise enough enough money to bring on a second developer. Unfortunately, there's reason to suspect the first may be more likely than one would hope - we'll have more on that when we figure out exactly what's going on there, and hopefully we'll figure it out soon. Consider this your heads up, though, that Sean will be taking a more immediate and active role moving forward than we originally planned."

Which makes it sound like the original coder either dipped out already or may have other commitments, and the Kickstarter says the backup guy won't be able to spend as much time on it.  Either way it sounds like things they should have worked out before setting up the KS.

[Grand Nagus]

Good luck with this, enjoy the game. If I had any money, i'd contribute myself.
