Not sure it quite qualifies for vapor yet, just immensely delayed. The devs are still posting in their forums regularly and showing what they're doing. I still feel like I was mislead quite a lot by them though.

Same here, not so confident anymore. I mean, maybe we'll get something, but every time I look at that icon on my desktop I think all I did was waste some money. Do not buy it until there is something more substantial out.

Note the million investment wasn't preorders, that was venture capital investment to establish their studio and hire staff for the full game production.

How in the world did they manage that kind of venture capital investment?

My guess is an interest in their underlying engine tech and whatnot, as it is homegrown and rather nifty.   Maybe one of them was just really keen on Voxels and the Intel partnership?

I'm also a pre-order from a good ways back, but taking it largely in stride as I wasn't expecting anything for a good while.

Well I'm sure as hell not buying it anymore. I'll leave it in my signature for the irony factor though.

Irony, I don't even remember my account details for the website of theirs.

I got this a long time ago, I think the last time I updated it was August 2010 lol
I like the Decent feeling it has, and since my father paid for his copy and mine, I'm not that pissed off from the delay..



..but my father certainly is.

It honestly feels like a lot of their problems came from the fact that their entire team was composed of cats, and the people who were supposed to be herding them were also cats.
