Now is also a good time to put together a short list of press since our release last month. Most extensively, I did an interview with Rock Paper Shotgun on our experience with Early Access:
The nicest response we see is people saying, ‘Oh, this is fresh. I’ve never seen something like this before.’ They’re really excited about that. Our big concern going into selling the game was, we’re specifically trying to make a game that’s different.
