My wishes to the devs

Hello, Almost Human!

Congrats for the launch day! I'm very glad you decided to bring back one of my favorite genres. I'm hoping it'll do you good and there will be a sequel.

Am I too early to present you my wishes to the future?

-If you'll make a sequel, please consider moving out of the dungeons as well. I love the dungeons, but variety is always good! I've always preferred games like Lands of Lore, Eye of the Beholder II and Might and Magic that have a variety of environments to see: dungeons, catles, towers, forests, swamps etc.

-I know you have already stated there's not going to be a physical release, but I just want to throw my support for this idea out there. Grimrock is a very old-skool experience, and I'd love it if you could go all the way. I miss the times when we had the cloth maps and the really cool manuals with background info on the game world, dev interviews, art, bestiary etc. I realize you are releasing some cool stuff with the game digitally, but it's just not the same. How about a physical "limited edition" release for the home market in the same vein as Trine 2? I can perfectly understand if you don't want to do this, but I wanted to express my own intrest.

Can't wait to play your game!

Lets see what the actual game is like first.
We all may have been well sucked into buying a digital pile of cow dung. :P

I miss the manuals that were as thick as Gideon's bible. :D

Nah. Seen the reviews? Somehow I doubt they're paid. ;)

I have noticed that no devs are posting today. Does this mean that they have left the country with all our moneys?

I saw yesterday a new yellow Lamborghini in the city, which have been famous among Finnish IT-millionaires. Couldn't however see, whether the driver was Antti, Juho, Olli or Petri. 8-)

Heheh, we are all here. The amount of traffic here has just skyrocketed so it's pretty hard to read and respond to every post :)
