itch.io

No problem, I'll just keep waiting like this then. It's not like I wouldn't be interested in itch.io in general, I think I even already follow on Twitter, but staying up to date with everyone about everything is just impossible these days.

So whenever possible I try to get granular notifications. If that's not foreseen then I'm still grateful for this bundle of bundles. Gifted one to a good friend of mine already as well. :)

Love you! :)

Thank you for the response! I think I underestimated how much work there needs to be done on the backend. Fair enough. :)

As for updates... Well I hardly check my Twitter and when I do it's more like catching up with notifications and whatever random stuff appears in my feed for about two scrolls...

Discord I hardly ever use for anything beyond game voice chat and even that less so. I am also very wary of allowing anything ping me, so there's that. I guess if there is not a one-purpose page that I can subscribe to for a single notification, email would be best, then I'll just try to remind myself one day that "hey... My biggest digital library isn't Steam or GOG, it's itch.io" and I gotta check that day then if I can finally mass-claim! XD

Where will an official announcement be made? And I mean specifically to this issue. Something I could track? It'd be nice if we could subscribe to a notification specifically for this.

I'm a GOG Galaxy user and it's super nice seeing what I already have across platforms. (and to have a record month of newly added games :P )

I also don't think it's fair to the end-user. Right now I have to go to the bundle, click download to validate the purchase so to say. If I found the game by browsing the store right now I would see the banner about it being part of the bundle, but post-bundle I'd be lead to believe I don't own it.

Maybe you thought of this already, but honestly I'd really appreciate just having it all activated right away.

Many thanks to you and everyone who submitted their games for this. It's quite an incredible bundle. Possibly the best bundle I've ever seen. Truly epic. :)

Well, there's a couple of thoughts...

a) I will keep condemning the concept or premature fanfare. (various reasons)

b) good theory and might be very true

c) the new sprites could still be just the dev getting cold feet ahead of time, but well after making the game public. I'm not saying that's the reason definitely, but then again nobody can look into the dev's mind. Just a theory.

d) Yes, a huge success indeed.

Well that's one thing, but it has a lot to do with how copyright law works as well.

Probably that you posted a trailer of something that anyone could have guessed was just a matter of time until the wrong guys caught wind... A trailer to something that smells like C&D material

Anywhere my friend, the law applies there too.

You'll have more luck finding someone else who downloaded it in time to share it with you.

Too bad we're having this conversation, but it was a matter of time. Next time finish the game and drop it on torrent.

Exactly my thought

Expected this day one, the more you talk before something is ready the more you're going to risk losing it.

Cannot believe folks still don't know how to shut up until something is done.

We've lost a lot of cool fan projects thanks to impatience.
