You shouldn't stress, take the time needed! Stress causes programming mistakes (believe me, I know), and it's bad for your health too.
I'm sure many will agree that quality>quantity, take some extra time if you need it!

i can not WAIT to see what you guys have been up to

on a side note, is there and chance we could get a general idea of your short/mid/long term goals are and the time frame you think these will happen in??

OoOoOnE dAy!! lol

As i understand i should buy supporter pack to have full game? Any way to use visa for it? i haven't got paypal =(

You can use the paypal payment and use your card directly without creating paypal account.

Thanks! inb4 next version

Could you guys update the game slightly more often ? I mean, I understand and agree you have to take your time, because quality>amount, but ... don't let us believe the game won't be developed anymore, and DON'T LET US PLAY SOMETHING ELSE THAN FACTORIO! ^^

They are humans! let them live when they tried to update each week, a buggy update was born D: lol.

Patience is a virtue.
Quality takes time!

It's an alpha pre-release.

Buggy builds are completely normal/expected, and it's not like we can't just use an old version when the occasional game-breaking kink needs to be worked out.

But, having users do QA on incremental builds requires a bit of work to set up properly.

Optimally, you need (among other things):

• A streamlined build process for getting minor updates out to the users without a lot of overhead on each release.
• Properly implemented error reporting.
• Users that care and are competent enough to submit useful bug reports
• A bug tracking system to which they can submit those reports.

All of this stuff requires time (money!) to set up and maintain, and for a tiny team that ends up being time spent *not* doing work on the game proper. I think they'd probably benefit from more eyes checking fewer features more often, but in the end they need to figure out what will work for them.

I think that may come with the launcher

Yep! There will always be missed bugs. It is almost guaranteed

Hey guys
Guess what day it is

Okay, that looks awesome...how did you do it??? BTW, tried googling it by copy paste and google says the url is too long

Well you see...

I think my vision is not complete

lol, Unicode fonts go get some Though admittedly it could be your browser (I think chrome particularly dislikes Unicode).
It should look something like this: If you don't understand how it's possible (I didn't at first) go google unicode stacking or 'how does zalgo work'.
Also unless you like semi-creepy/scary things avoid typing zalgo invocation into youtube


btw: sorry for getting off topic, but the blame goes to Ilnor for posting first
