Tomorrow morning I'm leaving home at 8 for my final exam, which means I'll finally be able to get back to work on KarBOOM after this 2-week study break I've just had. Uni will be over, and I'm not thinking about getting any Summer jobs -- let's see what it's like to be an Indie Developer full time. Assuming I'm organised enough tomorrow morning, I'll be hosting from about 7:30am EST. I won't participate, because I'll be at my exam. But if people are playing when I get back I'll join in for sure So get your acts together! People have been joining, but never more than one at a time before driving around a bit and leaving! I think the next version will have to have a "min players" option, with bots filling out whatever's missing, so players have reason to stick around if other players aren't on yet. Also: joining victory-limited rounds mid round (at least the time limit and score limit modes, since that'll only give you a disadvantage) instead of having to wait until the next round. Jibb

Sure do! Accounts created then will not be upgraded. Once activated, those accounts can be used on the forums. When logged in a not-upgraded account can be upgraded with PayPal for $5 (US). I put the system in place a very long time ago in the hopes that accounts would be created faster than this I recall it being well-tested, but when it gets closer to the limit I'll probably look over the code again to be sure. I've been playing a lot of KarBOOM 0.3 with my youngest brother (unfortunately he's better than me at it). Still a way to go, but most of the gameplay stuff is implemented. Jibb

I'm hosting right now if people want to join. I'm about to go out, but I'll leave it on for a few hours. Check out #screenshotsaturday for heaps of screenshots of WIP indie games, including KarBOOM (most weeks except last weekend) and Error014's latest project (usually but seemingly not this week). Jibb

It's more of a sideproject, really (first person to PM me with the correct tweet wins* ~ there's also a neat gallery) The REAL DEAL is still incredibly secret and has only be shown to very few people, most of which we had to kill right after. * - there is no real prize avaible, but I might edit this post with a list of WINNERS.
Perhaps this post will get me points for originality at least.
Check out Dungeon Deities! It's amazing and will make you happy, successful and almost certainly more attractive! It might be true!
