    Any chance you could post some of the losing posters?  Seems like you had some pretty great entries.

    I contributed on kickstarter after you made that one topic about it, just waiting for the mac version bro.

    EDIT: Woops, didn't see the email announcing the mac version, will give it a try after work today.

    Dude, I saw your box art on Reddit a month or so ago and went nuts. Absolutely love the box art. The game looks really cool, too. I played your early build way back last year or whenever that was. It was obviously an early build, but there was tons of potential. Like the humor, too. I'll pick up your game when I get my student loan checks :P 
     
    edit Oh, a question: How long, from start to finish, did it take you guys to release it? Another: How's it feel to finally release a game? (assuming this is your first).

    Great title for a game. And "My ribs are in my eyes" made me bust up laughing. The game looks like it is legitimately funny, hope it's also fun to play. Will try to check it out soon.

    About 6 months. I hope that gives you guys a good idea of what to expect, we really didn't wanna kill ourselves like Team Meat or Jon Blow on our first game. The next batch (of about a hundred levels) will be out in like 4 more months.

    I've made a tonne o web games since I was in school, but this is my first game that people are actually buying, and that I actually need to make money on. For about the whole week before/after the game came out, I was stressed AS FUCK because people were getting glitches, some people were really excited before it came out, the mac version was impossible to get working, my parents are ALWAYS on my back askin for how much money I've made etc.

    and the outcome of this game, more than any other, is a judgement of whether or not I've bin wasting my time all year. So the whole time around when the game gets finished is a total blizzard, but we start opening it up to distributors n start advertising this week, so hopefully I'll see people actually giving a shit n I can get to sleep again.

    SPEAKING OF WHICH: Alex just announced our affiliates program where you get HALF OF OUR SALES if you ever feel like tellin your friends to buy our game. Your "friends" could be 2 people or 200 people, so go nuts! Shit is downright BANANAS!

    Seriously, congratulations. One of my long-term-speck-in-the-distance goals is to make a game, but it seems like such a daunting task. For you to have done it is really incredible.

    It truly shocks me that no one noticed that the song is a Top Gear remix, it seems no one in the US played or remembers that game. Great soundtrack.

    I dunno, it's more fun from my point o view to see other people fill it in.

    Of course the whole reason I made this game is to get the Pimp My Profile quest on Giantbomb. Boy is it working.

    Hey duder, just posting here to let you know I purchased the game last night. I only played for a little while last night, but I'm really enjoying it. I'll probably finish it tonight.

    I began writing some brief thoughts about it just then, but it started turning into a rant. I might actually do a community review it in the next few days and jot down all my thoughts.

    Whoops! Gotta go to lunch.

    FEEL FREE to rant about this game. There's loads of stuff I could rant about myself, I'm sure you won't come up with anythin I haven't heard before.

    What's the word on the soundtrack for this? Can't wait to get my hands on it.

    As for the game, I'm having a lot of fun with it, but mostly I'm waiting for true fullscreen and controller support so I can start having No Time To Explain parties on the couch, pass-the-controller style, like SMB when that came out. Also, an easier, more traditional level selection menu would be really nice.

    The UI, stability and polish leave a bit to be desired, but if the humour and gameplay idea that comes through in the trailer appeals to you, I'd say it's well worth the money.
