I gotta say after having played the game a fair bit my only two real gripes are this:
- Dungeons are way too linear for my liking
- Boss intro music is too quiet and hence not dramatic enough

Letter rearranging is too much fun.

Edit: I just realized the second "u" is really a "w", so it apparently says "forget yow"

since i didn't get an answer in-game (or at least i didn't see it):

edit: found the title screen song from a post on page 6:

Dungeons are going to be less linear down the road, right now the generator just makes a single line just to keep it straight forward.

This helps public demos a lot, but it's probably not needed for press demos. Though to be safe I'm going to leave it as is since I don't want to test anymore.

Anyway, with the last update things seem to be stable.

I'm going to finish up the press kit and send some stuff out tonight, server is going to be up for a bit more.

Experimented with how the hall of heroes stuff is going to look.

Edit: just in case anyone's not up to speed, this is going to be a kickstarter reward. You back a certain amount of money and you get a character in the game for people to choose, as well as a statue of said character and your name on it.

In the hall of heroes will I be able to pick up the statues and smash them into each other like regular items?

The past three days I did client only tests, to make sure the build I'm sending out to press was working right.

I'm not sure yet, but I'm leaning towards yes, because it'd be hilarious.

oh, and maybe, if you break one of the statues, they turn into a hostile ai that fights in a similar manner to the shopkeeps

That would be super neat, or maybe you could bring the statues to a place and it'd re-animate them. Then people who back could choose a weapon and an alt weapon for that character to use in like a mini arena area when you re-animate them.

Are you going to start using voxels with different sizes?

Rotondo removed the test clients as he has no reason to keep them up.
