      Thanks Joshua for posting those links, and thanks Griffin for the tip! Somehow we were unaware of the Drunken Moogle, but it seems like a match made in heaven! We'll drop them a line and see if they're interested.

      We're with you on not being huge fans of the "hurry up and wait" type of games, and we'll be sure to get player feedback on our shop before going live to make sure we maintain that credo.

      My girlfriend and I were just talking about management games. We hated games like farmville and Simpsons: Tapped Out because they just take so long to do anything. Really looking forward to this game where you can do things when you want. I do hope that this game will avoid Pay to Win strategies and ingredients will be easy to come by for a non-paying user.

      That said, check out Drunken Moogle, a blog entirely about drinking. Kickstarter project, Drunk Quest, skyrocketed once people from Drunken Moogle heard about it. If you can get them interested, this game will take off.

      Next Kickstarter: A Franchise Chain of Fiz Breweries! I would back it! Could just be the beer talking...

      And this isn't just a game about beer. Its a game about CRAFT BEER - my favorite.

      @ND356, Joshua,

      We'd just like to note that it's incredibly hard not to crack open a beer when you're staring at pixel versions of it or writing code relating to making beer all day long :D

      Creator ND356 on February 21

      Drinking and coding may actually be a good thing at blood alcohol concentration percentages between 0.129% and 0.138%. Drinking and driving is bad. But drinking a few and coding lets the creative juices flow. Google "Ballmer peak"

      Oh man! Lets hope it wasn't over fuel'ed (is that even a word?) by Total Domination!

    17. Icon.small

      Creator Bit By Bit Studios on February 17

      Thank you all!

      @Brian Great idea, one of us will definitely post there if it's acceptable for us to do so. Or you could post too ;)

      @Joshua Cheers! We're big Ninkasi fans -- you could say Total Domination partially "fueled" the development.

      My family and I both love games and beer! We actually reside in Eugene and hope to help you out even more! My wife actually works at the local Ninkasi Brewery!

      You guys should post this on BeerAdvocate. I don't know how they feel about people advertising on their forums, but I'm sure that even if you did get your post deleted you would still get a couple more backers. I really hope this gets funded!!!

      Creator Dan Gadigian on February 12

      This looks great! I had the idea to make a similar style game a year ago, but never acted on it. Glad to see this is everything I imagined and much more!

      This game seems promising :)
