And while it may seem like a pretty minor thing to most of you,

I doubt that anyone in 2011 would see this as a "minor thing": Maddox Games struggling with implementing full-screen mode. Maybe if it was 1997 or 1998, but to be still working on this on a released game in 2011, is truly unprecedented. I'm glad to hear you are hiring now. You are in desperate need of good game coders and I'm behind you now as I have been since 2001. I'm glad my $14.41 is being put to good use, and look forward to also purchasing the US release.

Thanks for the update Luthier!

All great news, the full time community role will add immensely to this community. Already we appreciate all the support you obviously give this game, and to be able to interact with your team and stay informed as to what you are working on will certainly continue to breath life into this community.

Thanks again and keep up the great work, its much appreciated.

Wow! Last of the big spenders! But you really need to check the licence agreement more closely. The $14.41 version of the game specifically forbids sarcastic and derogitory comments by the licence holder.

I on the other hand being the proud owner of the Special Collectors edition am licenced to make all the witty comments I like.

Cheers!

Thanks Luthier!

Still waiting patiently for a North American release. It does, after all, seem as though the forced-hand alpha release to Europe and Australasia brought in the required dollars to continue development, ramp up staff, and get the title to the finishing line (eventually).

Shame about all the kerfuffle, but I guess in a tough niche industry I'm not too concerned about how we get there, as long as we get there. Bravo for hanging in there

Looking forward to hearing from the new community-liaison dude.

Cheers, Spinner

Hello Luthier.

Don't worry too much. Most long-time gamers understand a rough launch. Sure, it would've been nice to have everything working perfectly on launch day... but the game we have now is still very good and is rapidly heading toward greatness.

We're not console FPS kiddies around here. We're simmers. We know how to wait for good things.

Skoshi, you gave me the first good laugh of the weekend. Thanks
