Can't wait to see the new stuff!

Wow, seems we found this thread's bridge dweller. It's cool to not like it, but to regale us with your anti-facebook diatribe is just lame. And I wouldn't expect an objective view of the game from someone who clearly states that they are part of the crew.

Anti-facebook diatribe?

Spoiler: What I said (click to show/hide)

I dislike facebook. The fact it's a primary node of information had me almost instantly dismiss the game, but I had some time to kill so I tried it out anyway. My first 2 attempts at running this game had it moving quite slow. I've decided for the time being to pass on a 3rd attempt. I also felt the need to express that I think you don't have much objectivity in thiss issue alexpoysky, and that this game might better be suited to being described by someone who has no direct ties to it's development team.

Spoiler: Breakdown in bullet form (click to show/hide)

*The decision to use Facebook as a primary information site put me off at first.

* I experienced technical problems with running the game twice, and chose to not try a third time.

* The only description of gameplay comes from the person who started this topic, and more information from alternate sources would be good.

Not quite sure how you could take facebook as the point of the topic, but whatever. That isn't as confusing to me as the statement "bridge dweller". Is it a crack on my financial status? Are you saying I am homeless. It happens to be partially true. My wife divorced me, accused me of domestic violence, and I haven't seen my son in quite a long time. I'm quite depressed, unemployed, and literally living on my sister's couch. Not much of a Bridge, but close. I'm not sure why that matters to the situation though. Maybe it means something else? I suspect it's a crack at being an internet troll. In case it was, here is WHY I bothered to post anything at all...

Constructive critisism is very much appreciated, but I won't argue with anyone over the boards.

I freely admit my critique style could use a great deal of refinement, but that doesn't mean it was unsolicited. I don't know how to read "bridge dweller" in any way that isn't insulting and a personal attack. Perhaps I am missing something. Please elaborate.

[hemmingjay]

Bridge Dweller is a common term for someone who is trolling. I apologize if you took it to heart, but in my opinion you were trolling. It had nothing to do with any of the circumstances of your life that you listed. I am very sorry you are experiencing that.
*There is clearly a devblog in addition to the facebook page, which is really more of a place for fans to congregate.
*While you offered criticism, perhaps a more constructive critique would be more appreciated.

Fresh start?

[alexpoysky]

Anywho, let's let bygones be bygones. No need to start a fight or anything. Anyways, the changelogs and general information are on the blog if anyone cares to look at it, and there are a few let's plays by people who aren't affiliated to our project at all whatsoever. Oh and a reddit. Anyways, I'm back to work!

[Kogan Loloklam]

How about posting a link to one of the let's plays in the OP?
(Preferably from more than a single site, since I personally would rather read text than wait for a movie to load.)

[alexpoysky]

Updating it now. heres the link just in case

Nonetheless, it is a SPANISH lets play.

Theres an article about us on DIY as well.

[Kogan Loloklam]

I'm certain DIY should ring a bell, but it doesn't. How about a link to that article?
