Btw, I forgot the {NW} in front of my name - can you change my name, Scottris, or do I need to re-register?

Re: Welcome Thread

Just finished playing my first demo game...

All I can say is... wow. Can I buy into the early access release? Who do I send my money to? Jesus I've been waiting for this game for so long.

You know how it goes, things always take longer than expected. The developer says "a few days", then his wife goes into labor and he spends the next five days with her in the hospital, and before you know it the projected "few days" turn into a week and a half. What can I say? Deadlines are never kept in software development. wink

On the plus side, while the Talon release got delayed, significant progress was made on Project Baby. On the 8th of December my wife and I welcomed little Lia into this world, moving the project from internal development to the first limited alpha state. Initial testing has gone well. There are still some bugs to work out and many features missing, but I am confident these will be addressed in future updates.

Work on Talon will slowly resume in the coming days, and the promised release is imminent.

Re: Welcome Thread

First thing you might want to add is a volume selector or even muting button. ;-D

Congratulations from the heart, as I said!

Some of us have been waiting for Talon for ~13 years - one week more or less does not make a difference (well with the exception of Slovek maybe :-p).

Take your time to recover! Talk soon...

Re: Welcome Thread

Wow! Congrats!

edit: Yes, I was only kidding with the Soon™. We'll wait as long as it takes buddy.

(Of course I will still be refreshing the page every few hours ;d )

Re: Welcome Thread

Hello all!
It's good to see so many fellow Descent players involved. Of all the 6DOF games that seem to be exploding out of the internet, this looks like it's the best to come

@Blarget2: The geometry on that level is unheard of! Keep that up
@Scott: Congrats on the girl - I wish you both all the best
