Haha, oh man. Can you imagine the qq, though, if some people got codes even 15 minutes before others? These forums would crash with butthurt.

Steam servers would choke under 3k+ people trying to install the beta at once, so I can wait. ;)

Uhhhh, no. Steam has millions of discrete users on at once worldwide. Can't imagine they'd give a fraction of one shit over 3,000 indie installs.

I'm going to be royally cheesed if they send out the emails in the middle of the night again. I have tests tomorrow and I can't afford to be next to my computer constantly. Oh well, such is the life of the undergrad.

Looks like Ohmwrecker got in on the beta early.


Well, I guess the cat is out of the bag. I did get access yes, and have been helping with testing. I also have a ton of footage recorded, which I'll be using to get videos up for beta launch on Youtube. My channel is:

How did you find out about the tester feedback link? :)

Any chance you can just put the videos up now so we can watch them while we wait for our beta invites to come through :D

I would have been happy to, but I was asked to hold off until the beta was ready for you guys. That's why I have so much footage, I've just been getting it together while I waited. :)
