The backers deserve something , and they shouldn't have to wait for it. I think everyone has been more than patient enough already. I actually am starting to feel like this announcement of releasing the code is probably more a of disservice to his backers than anything else. It's giving false hope....

Is.... Is it time to start coughing? :twisted: The patient seems almost clinically dead. Perhaps indeed a cough could revive it a bit (speaking of the forum, not our Talv). Btw, HS, pretty neat lights effect in your entry, and nice ships, both on water and in the air. If I may a small critic: the s...

The Reynolds number has no dimension. Actually, this is not surprising, but the whole point. Engineers (mostly chemical engineers, but some others as well) know that they cannot calculate from first principles. But we need to calculate (I routinely in my job need to scale things up or down factor 1...

Flat: I was just wondering why you think releasing to a single person is the best option. I fully understand that having an organised and managed developer community for an open source project is best, this should indeed be the target if some people want to make something out of the code. So we agre...

This talk of reimbursement is a bit silly. I mean!beyond the fact that Josh did his best and certainly no fraud. Not being a lawyer, I guess worst case, Josh could release the prototype with a new title and be done with any obligation. There is an obligation to distribute a game, not a good game... ...

Ringu I could be wrong but I thought a $45 dollar pledge was to go towards a game, alpha/beta access and perhaps some dodgy art work or something like that? As far as I know (and I don't know so perhaps you can correct me :ghost: ) but you've had none of that right? If that's the case then how did ...

However given the responses from the community and the backers, I'd guess that the outcome would be around 85% saying no, just release the source code. 10% saying sell it and issue refunds. and 5% saying sell it and restore your personal savings. Not that it is important, as I assume such a sale to...

When I last heard, he simply wanted to go back to university to finish his schooling. This is the best news since the original statement (which was a good news, imho, to end a rotten situation). Josh, keep this good decision, in our world, you won’t regret having a diplom to show and it will teach ...

Nobody ain't leavin' no train fo now, son. I've seen my visiting frequency be somewhat proportional to Joshs posting frequency. And now? I might have a look into REKT. But still, what course will the forums take? I'd suggest giving the whole train some fresh paint and turn it either to a general so...

So as a game master, you are then something like a god? Or is there some way you can get attacked and removed from power? Higher up the power scale. In his world, he can decides what god(s) do. And he can loose power as soon as nobody freely accept to bend to his power, i.e. the player leave him :m...

yeh, right, the music... Could it be something to send as a "mp3"-CD electronically to all backers? That would be a nice souvenir, and perhaps somebody (Josh himself, as a hobby besides or until a new occupation) can tweak the code to make a "landscape"-screen saver (generate a new planet and random...

I really should finish my entry..... It's mostly there, just needs some tweaking!

Yep, we are still expectantly waiting. No pressure.

This is the right decision Josh.

Congratulations for having the courage to take it. We know you did your best, now get your life back.

Wish you all the best!


And for the forum, you can count on me for sharing the cost as well!

Honestly, I don't see why people still get mad about this. At least for me, it’s not mad. It’s worried. The thing is: when somebody has a history of being dependable and independant, you don’t worry if you have no news during some time. You trust he will be doing fine as usual. When somebody has a ...

I meant 'when Josh gets around to communicating he does an excellent job at it'.

Oh. Ok, you are very right about it. I see what you mean. Fully.
The epic video updates were works of art of communication indeed.
