Don't be ridiculous. Did you expect Badspot to be some Herculean warrior made of steel delivering copies of Blockland to eager children in a flaming chariot made of adamantium?
My respect for him is unchanged. He was inspired to become an indie game dev and he made a game that I consider genius. Consider the fact I've been playing Blockland since TSS spotlighted it and yet I've played major game titles, which have had millions of dollars poured into them, and get bored in (at most) a month.
