Yeah, a few people have had a similar knee-jerk reaction to our game, which we find unfortunate but understandable. Ultimately though, the support and comments we've been receiving have been overwhelmingly positive. We're all very humbled!
( Amusingly enough, even the loudest detractors actually seem to really enjoy the game when they give it a chance. Maybe we should have a special testimonials section? ;P )
We had a target audience we wanted to reach, and we definitely reached them. More than anything we were inspired by Monty to take a leap and just DO IT. We are very satisfied with the end result because it shows we can commit to finishing a project of this scale. Monty respected hard work. He lived and breathed it, even through failure, because he knew a mistake was just an opportunity to learn something new.
So yes, we are moving forward. Much stronger than before.
