Does anyone know if this will have multiplayer ? Like co op or something ?

[Shades]

Edit: was reading the wrong updates, please ignore

[ScriptWolf]

Ahh sorry silly me I must have missed that haha

I'm now even more excited for the game

[Aklyon]

Shades, are you sure you aren't getting the Planetary Annihilation page and this mixed up? I can't find that quote on the CS page.

I am, ignore my post.

Edit:

We will probably hire Thierry (aka. Menekis) officially as Webmaster and Community Manager. He could also even help with the multiplayer since he has some experience in that. Until now, Thierry has been working as a volunteer for free and putting dozens of hours it the website and the Kickstarter campaing. His help has been invaluable and we are really looking forward compensating him for that.

Okay so this is the mention of multiplayer in Castle Story. There is also a talk about how the beta won't have any.
Sounds to me like they want to have it but don't really know anything about it.

Also the home page has multiplayer as one of the bullet points but does say:

We've never done a multiplayer game of this scope before, so it's going to take a lot of time and effort to learn the ropes and get it right.

So I wouldn't be shocked if they ended up dropping it but I'm hopeful they won't.

Just been reading the kickstarter again and read about the alpha do we get it that Sunday?

I know it says as soon as the kickstarter is finished but not sure totaly

Punctuation is important. Please remember to use it.

That being said, I'm not sure, but I suppose that there might be some delay. They got a way larger number of backers than expected, and they have said that they had to focus all their efforts on the kickstarter. So, ...

[ScriptWolf]

Ahh yeah true so we might be waiting a few days ?

Sorry I'm using my phone, punctuation tends to go out the window.

Meanwhile, Paypal.

[kaian-a-coel]

Got it.

[Peewee]

Less than a day left, doesn't look like they'll quite hit the $750k someone was speculating, but $667k is nothing to sneeze at either!
I think it's hilarious how badly they underestimated how much interest their game would generate by a good 700%.

[ScriptWolf]

I really hope we get the prototype tomorrow.

[burningpet]

We wont, they postponed the prototype to November.

[Peewee]

Have a source for that?

The reward tiers say estimated delivery date in August, does that mean the game is ready now?
Ok, let me be frank, we’re stuck with the reward descriptions we’ve written. We wrote August because technically, the Kickstarter ends on the 26th. But in all likelihood, it won’t be ready until September.
Our milestone (accounting for all possible delays) is to release something in time for the IGF submissions which is on October 17th. Ideally we would still release somethings earlier than that, but if anything happens, you are guaranteed some kind of release by that time.

Also:

<prototype 'reward'> Get access to an alpha build of the game soon after the Kickstarter is over.

I seem to remember that worded differently... as in "Get access to an alpha build of the game as soon as the Kickstarter is over," but maybe that's just wishful thinking.

*sighs* been looking in the forums, the prototype will be out in October ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)
