Wow, high praise indeed! I'm really glad you're enjoying the game, and flattered that my little effort was what convinced you to make an account!
Have no fear, CK will never be abandoned - I already have a few rough drafts for the sequels scribbled down! ;) Not to mention the other games set in the same universe that I really want to make... I love what I do, and I don't intend on stopping any time soon, that's for sure!
Oh, and awesome username by the way ;)
