Sorry Paul. Im spending a little more time putting together a small gameplay video so I would have something worthy of an update. Until then, heres your mini update. Im working very hard to finish the game =)
Creator Paul on May 14

Creator Paul on May 8
How about a list of remaining tasks / milestones with an expected schedule of completion?. We all support what you are doing here and want Spate to be the best it can be. That said, a little more visibility into the process never hurts. You never know, one of us may be able to assist with a remaining task.
Creator Eric Provan on May 7
Hey Paul, I'll throw an update up in the next day or two. Not a bad idea. Any thing you would like me to specifically address?
Thanks,
-Eric
Creator Paul on May 7
Almost 2 months since there was an update here...disconcerting.
Creator ThomasN on April 11
Chris: Eric's update coincided with your message... so I suppose you read it already, if not: "summer 2013"
Creator Chris on March 15
So I'm noticing this game is substantially past when it promised.
When can I expect to be playing this game?
Creator thai-chau nguyen on March 10
WHOOOO congrats on the win! You deserved it, Eric.
Creator Imar de Vries on March 6
Many congrats Eric on winning TNGB, awesome!
Creator ET3D on March 6
I just watched the finals. Congratulations! What an incredible win. You got the majority vote of both the judges and the crowd.
Creator sbenrap on February 10
Just watched The Next Game Boss. Go Eric!!!
I really love what I've seen of the game so far, I like the 'artsy fartsy' art, and I love that it resembles Limbo at times (what's wrong with that?).
If you're fleshing out the story, that's an added bonus :)
Creator ThomasN on January 5
Eric: You never know if your dad can still see the things you do from his afterlife. Either way, I want to see a game someone created because he was inspired by a person he loves. Sorry about being so selfish :( , but I've been gripped by this game since I've heard the first spoken sentence of the trailer.
Creator Eric Provan on September 11, 2012
You bet! I will be posting an update very very soon. If you would like more frequent update, please visit the games facebook page, as I post there almost daily! http://www.facebook.com/Spatevideogame
Creator Veav on September 11, 2012
Any updates on the game progress?
Creator Annqueru on August 21, 2012
Got my postcard in the mail awhile back, just getting around to saying thank you. It was great, I got home from work to find my dad staring at the mail, wondering what the anything I had gotten myself into... It was a bright spot after a long day :)

Hey! Have you sent t he thank you notes yet?
Creator Eric Provan on July 30, 2012
Awesome, glad ya got it! You can tell at which point in the night I did the drawing because the later it got, the more random the pictures got =)

I didn't recognize you were working on an dark "Alice" movie before. You could try "Alice - Madness Returns" for additional inspiration, it's graphics are awesome.

Awesome, glad to see that funding was successful
Creator Paskarl on May 27, 2012
Congrats!
Now it´s up to you, Eric, to show us your SPATENESS !!! :-)
Creator keremix on May 27, 2012
I would like to let you know that Eric responded to my PM and he is trying to figure out the distribution. Lets hope he makes it both to GOG and steam
Creator ET3D on May 27, 2012
Congratulations!
.
@keremix, it would be impossible to promise distribution methods in advance. The way Steam, GOG etc. work is that the developer submits the game and the service needs to approve it. They can easily say 'no', so it's impossible for a dev to promise something before the game is submitted. The big names can usually promise Steam, on the assumption that they'll have no problem getting approved, but for indies it's a different story.
.
That said, hopefully Eric gets the game approved on several services and allows a choice of service plus a DRM free download. Steam at least lets developers easily give away how many keys they want, so technically it wouldn't be a problem.
Creator Ali B. on May 26, 2012
YES!!!
Creator Tychoxi on May 26, 2012
Nice!
Creator Thomas on May 26, 2012
@Keremix, he tends to be pretty good about responding to PMs, but I suspect that with the huge influx he may be having a hard time keeping up as he does have a job and other things.
I think you've made the right decision to back anyways.
I personally put a vote for GOG if they can make that happen. Steam will be an option IIRC, that came up on one of the earlier pages.
What I'm more curious about is the timing and distribution method for the Beta.
Creator Glynixx on May 26, 2012
awesome! congrats!!
Creator keremix on May 26, 2012
I did not receive a response to my pm to Eric. Nevertheless, I decided to back this wonderful game and congratulations for reaching the goal. I would still appreciate a response though :) I How will this game be distributed? Will you make it available for download on your website? Or are you planning to give a key through GOG.com or maybe steam?
Creator Daniele A. Grote on May 26, 2012
Congrats! :)

Very nice work everyone. Nice to see this getting funded!
Creator Keith on May 26, 2012
We're already over the 10% processing fees for Kickstarter and Amazon as well as a 5% failure rate. If we hit $15,300 we have also covered the $1,500 pledge Eric was worried about and he'll get the full $12,000 he wanted.
Creator Glynixx on May 26, 2012
Come on folks! 4 hours to raise another 1k!
Creator Matt Combes on May 26, 2012
$13,500 achieved! You may breathe now. :)
Creator Ali B. on May 25, 2012
@Alan that sounds like a great idea. I'm pretty sure nothing is set in stone yet. I'd definitely reach out to Eric with that!
Creator Alan Forgay on May 25, 2012
Okay cool, thanks for the info Ali B. I was thinking it would be cool if the poster was a panoramic landscape type view of one of the games backdrop environments, perhaps with the main character performing a swinging action on the rope or something to that nature but that looks nice too.
Creator Glynixx on May 25, 2012
@Veav, Wish my wife would pledge that.... Then again, she would not be able to be defeated ;)
Creator Veav on May 25, 2012
*blinks at $1500* Really? The core antagonist is going to be a backer? Well okay then.
Creator Michael Sly on May 25, 2012
We need to get this a little higher. If the on $1500 Backer pulls it, we are screwed.
Creator Glynixx on May 25, 2012
Let's break 15k to Give Eric some room to work with! I think they loose 10 or 20% off the top - some to pay amazon and some to pay kickstarter so the higher the amount the closer to actually 12k he can use to make the game.
Creator Imar de Vries on May 25, 2012
Wonderful, we've done it!
Creator Logan Roth on May 25, 2012
Oh and Congrats
Creator Logan Roth on May 25, 2012
