More reactions from Gridrunner Revolution launch day
I think we've hit the sweet spot much more squarely with this than we did with SG. From reactions it seems people are finding it a lot easier to initially approach than SG was; scaring fewer people off is always a good start. I'm just chuffed to see people having fun. That always was to me the most important part of a game release anyway }:-).
More quotes:
"Really enjoying this, it's kind of hypnotic, relaxing and challenging all at the same time. Now I easily get frustrated with games these days, but have yet to feel any irritation with the game. Time just flies by when you're playing as it's so absorbing."
"Brilliant stuff guys! Hope it picks up and earns you some beer money.
...Why do I fancy a curry right now?"
"Not only are his games always spectacular fun, and works of art in their own right, but his very existence enriches the world. He makes the world a stranger, and slightly muskier, place."
(I think that is the best thing anyone has ever said about me, EVER }:-D)
"Playing Gridrunner Revolution I feel fully-hatted as a being". - Elron Cupboard
"You guys have created a killer. It has a strangely biological look, as if I'm viewing flourescent creatures through a microscope. Thanks, Llamasoft, for making somehting I didn't even realise I wanted to play yet desperately did."
"Oh man, it's utterly lovely. Really great work guys! I love how it feels so futuristic and yet totally "gridrunner" at the same time. "
"Finished Korma mode at about 3.570.000 and I think my brain has imploded. Beautiful on all accounts and a real digital drug too."
"Just done level 30 on Madras. I'm looking at this browser now, and all I can see are spots. Also I keep trying to shoot things with my mouse. Is that normal?"
"Love the way you have balanced it so it's an easy "pick up and play" yet there is so much depth there to try and master it. Don't want to sound like a fanboy, but seriously, this is an epic Yak. Thanks SO much mate!! All the time and effort was WELL worth the time."
"You guys deserve the praise, the game really did turn out incredible. I'm a huge fan of visualizer style crazy trippy stuff, and llamasoft games can do that like no other likely ever will. Plus....the gameplay, the gameplay is always great."
Should be some more press out soon, and we're still working through the press pack requests. The tone of the release feels good so far, lots of happy people, not too many problems. Hopefully we can keep things rolling along for a while.
Any co-pimpage would of course be much appreciated, we'll happily take all the help we can get! }:-)
