Only on that small site right now, so not quite broadcasting the release widely yet. Should be up on some larger sites soon, and hopefully Steam in the semi-soon future. Steam will probably depend on how well it sells on these smaller sites though.

So yup... woo?

!O_O!

Buying it on Monday!

I'd get it this weekend but I am leaving to visit friends out of state right after work. Coincidentally it is the guy I got to buy it on 360 so I will be playing it this weekend anyway.

Super excited!

If I ever port it over to MonoGame! Haven't looked into it too much yet, supposed to be a bit of a pain to do though. Depending on how it does for PC might do it.

Yeah, only payment method IndieVania has sadly. You can use a card through PayPal without opening an account I believe.

Hmm, I think I'll wait until it lands somewhere a little more high profile. I'd rather not sign up to yet another site, let alone one I haven't heard of until now.

Any plans to get it on Desura? Should be a bit easier than Steam, since it's indie-focused.

Yeah, sorry. Wish I could get it onto PSN but it's much less open than PC distributors and would require pretty much recoding the game form scratch as it's done in a Microsoft framework.
