Glider is really nice, i had the luck to play it a th GC, it was fun!  Only the movement seams a bit slow to me, it could be a bit faster, like when you are in Boost Mode. So keep up the good work, but DONT make the mistake and let the developing end in a never ending Story. Focus on the main things and release it, dont take another year, i think it will lost the intrests of the publisher with every month you take more..... old_bill

I never did see an explanation for the reasoning behind "We hate fun" while game devs may get it, the odd people who don't practice the great art of game deving still greaty outnumber us (that is until I conquer the rule and place game devs in charge  ) and will think you actually mean you hate fun and if you hate fun the game must not be fun... something to think about, otherwise great work!

No. You just don´t get it either. Never heard of irony or sarcasm? The problem with some (if not all) kinds of humor is that not everyone gets it. It seems as if nearly everyone seems not to be able to just think that "far" and say, well, they´re using irony there.

I don´t see any difference.

I don't think it is that at all. I think that most of us here realize they like fun or they wouldn't be developing a game, etc. When I suggested dropping the "We Hate Fun" tag line it was more for a marketing reason than anything else. It just is not a good idea to state you "hate fun" when you are creating a game and it is generally not a good idea to use a word like "hate" anyway as it just sends the wrong idea. Besides, irony or not, it is just plain dumb (IMHO).

@Dan Silverman: I said and explained them already, that the "we hate fun" tag is a very bad idea. But maybe, if more people tell them, they will change that. When selling something to a big mass of people, you can´t make such experiments, or risk a big lip *große lippe riskieren* The chance is obviously higher to sell a game without that tag "we hate fun" Maybe you can tag that in Glider2 when you sold glider(1) 100 000 times...
