BOUGHT

A little slow paced, but that was expected. Having fun with it so far, thanks for doing this!

Damn, that is great. I was really impressed with what I saw in the quick look, ill buy first thing in the morning. Thanks a lot!

This is great! Dave Gilbert I really enjoy your games and hope you guys keep on doing what you're doing, free of outside influence, for a long time. Going to buy Gemini Rue right now.

Awesome!!

I registered just to say thanks. I know this doesn't make me the best customer, but a sale on Gemini Rue was what I was waiting for.

Gonna buy this, first thing tomorrow! You rock Dave!

Very cool, I will buy it right away. (Would have done it either way but this is a very nice offering.)

Just watched the Quick Look, this game looks really cool! I'm definitely going to get it now. Thanks duder.

Wow, that is awesome. I already bought it before this discount, but I totally bought it because of GB's Quick Look. Great game!

All Daves are cool.

VIDEOGAAAAMES

Missed the Quick Look when it was originally published so I went and watched it and I gotta say this games seems great, been a while since I played some point and clickin'.

Thank you for this discount!

Did anyone have to wait a little longer for their download link? I ordered it about 3 hours ago and the e-mail with the download link from WadjetEye hasn't shown up yet.

This is why indy is awesome.

But really, very cool move! I already own the game though.

Hope some of the staff have noticed this.

@WadjetEye: dude that's awesome. I was just thinking about buying it and now I'm definitely buying it

Oh man, I was holding off on purchasing this until I was done with the games I was playing already, but I bought it right away after seeing this. Thanks Dave!

I was waiting for a Steam sale to buy this after seeing the QuickLook.

Now I bought it on the discount. Thanks! I hope this can become a trend. :)

@rflx: i don't have a comeback for that. Too awesome.

Aww man, I've already bought *and* played it. But I don't regret paying full price. It was very much worth it.

Same here. Great game.

Wow!  I go to sleep and this forum thread explodes. :)  This is very gratifying, guys.   Thanks so much!  To answer some of the common questions:
 
RE: Steam 
 
Their policy is not to give their reasons, presumably to not get into long conversations with defensive developers.  I can't say I blame them, although I can't help but wonder why they turned it down myself!  But, no biggie.  It means more direct sales for us. :)
 
RE: Mac
 
Right now, there is no Mac port.  The game was made using the AGS engine, which is rigidly PC only.  However, the engine just went open source and some people are trying to make a stable Mac port.  Once that happens, rest assured that Gemini Rue will be the first to make the jump.

Well worth it, I bought on release and it's awesome.

My first attempt (credit card) was not accepted for whatever reason. I just tried again now with PayPal.

If it doesn't work after that I give up. It shouldn't be this hard to make a PC game purchase regardless of game or discount. Sorry.

I'd be really interested to know how much this thread boosted sales, if at all. Seems like a bunch of dudes are buying it, so I hope so!

I'll have to buy this right now!

Was planning to get it after the Quicklook but I forgot about it.

Now, if only all developers would be as awesome as you, and give a discount after GB made a Quick Look of their game.

This is what is great about Giant Bomb. I remember in the early days of the site when Jeff said that the idea was to ignore the games people don't care about, cover the games people are already interested in and expose people to games they should care about but don't yet. This is a perfect example.

If it hadn't been for the Quick Look I never would have even heard of this game, so it's good to see that simple coverage like that can make so much of a difference for a small game like Gemini Rue.

Awesome, I loved the QL and meant to buy this sooner. This just reminded me, thanks Dave!

Bought this game at release and really can't stress how awesome it is. Add that on top of you doing this for the GB community. 
 
Everyone buy this game!

Enjoy my money while I enjoy your game.

Strange! What sort of error did you get? If you still want the game, drop me an email and I'll see if I can sort out what went wrong.

Paypal worked. Time to have some fun =3

This is really nice, thanks.

I will be buying this ASAP. From what I've seen, this game looks amazing.

Well I am going to have to buy this right now. I already was interested in the game, but this extremely kind gesture sealed the deal. Thank you, I will keep a look out for any future games you make.

@WadjetEye: Consider your game bought!

But a shame it didn't get on Steam. I remember reading somewhere that it might be because the resolution was too low to allow for the steam overlay or something like that. But then I remembered that I own Ben There, Dan That! on Steam, and that runs at 320x240.

Steam works in mysterious ways I guess.

Wow this is really cool! I'm glad that your game got recognition from the GiantBomb crew and the community. I'll be buying that game right now! 

@WadjetEye: Order went through successfully, just took a little longer to process. Thanks for replying !

That is really awesome of you, dude. Thanks a lot.

Once I get payed I will be buying this. Thanks Dave this is very nice of you. I have been thinking of buying this ever since I saw the Quick Look and now I will.

Totally buying this right now.

Game get! 
 
Just installed it, I'll give it a little go when I'm finished with work.

Thanks for the offer! Pretty awesome of you guys.

I was waiting for it to go on sale.. my plan has come to fruition! Thanks

@WadjetEye: How long will this discount code last for?

@Dylabaloo: June 26

@Delphye: Thanks!

Bought, Thanks for the discount.
