sbenrap: I'm very saddened to see Spate in this bundle, I have been a kickstarter backer for this game and saw all the blood sweat and tears Eric put into the game just to see it sink into obscurity.
I had thoughts of developing games in the past, but his experience pretty much killed it for me... I truly hope that game gets some recognition.
While I understand the sentiment [of being sad to see something you helped kickstart bundled after a relatively short time], I think there may be another side to it. While it probably equates to little in dollars and cents, being part of a Groupees bundle may be what the project needs to not sink into obscurity, as it will likely put it in the hands of thousands of people who wouldn't otherwise have given it a try. If only a fraction of those people discover that they like the game, it could mean a significant word-of-mouth boost to sales over time. Of course, this is just me speculating.I had thoughts of developing games in the past, but his experience pretty much killed it for me... I truly hope that game gets some recognition.
