Hey guys, do you think you could start giving us updates on when submitting themes and the voting on themes starts? There was a change to submitting that took me off guard, and I missed the voting entirely this time round!
Creator Sourjelly on January 26
I got my T-shirts! Thanks! This look great!! XD
Creator Shaun Inman on January 23
Greg, the crunch version of the first theme is already out! http://retrogamecrunch.com/games/1/end-of-line The complete, polished version is tentatively scheduled for a Feb 5th release. The Journal always has the latest info: http://retrogamecrunch.com/journal/9/wax-on-wax-off
Creator Greg Polander on January 19
So is when the first of the six games going to be released?
Creator Andrea Raiconi on January 7
Maybe someone knows something about this: I am on Mac OS X (Mountain Lion) and i use an Xbox360 (wired) controller, which is correctly recognized by the system using the drivers on Tattieboogle.net . However, the Enjoy app doesn't seem to work with my gamepad. Any of you aware of any solution about this?
Creator Andrew-David on December 23
The boss fight in Super Clew Land truly sucks. Terrible work.
Creator Shaun Inman on December 23
The site should be ready by the New Year. As for themes, we looking for concepts or short phrases. Something unexpected and cool. Like our 8-bit graphic, the best themes will be more suggestive, less literal. So more like your first four suggestions than the last.
Creator Jonathan Barrett on December 22
Do we have an ETA for the site to be Fully Operational? Looking forward to theme madness. Will the Themes to single things, like "Sharks", "Robots", or more detailed, "Robotic Sharks" or "Sharks Vs Robots", or silly amount of details, "Pacifist Flying Robotic Sharks with Lasers Attatched to their heads, On fire!" ?
Creator Simon Høgh Albrechtsen on December 18
Well, I did mean the video suggestions, but you still answered my question, thanks
Creator Shaun Inman on December 17
Hi Simon, we'll be taking theme submissions when the full retrogamecrunch.com site goes up!
Creator Carbonated Thoughts on December 16
Looking forward to taking this journey with you.
Creator Anthony Lee on December 15
I think when RetroGameCrunch.com goes up, that's when we submit themes and vote~ :)
Creator Simon Høgh Albrechtsen on December 15
Hey Shaun, can I stilll submit a theme suggestion?
Creator Logan on December 13
Thanks for getting back to me, and congratulations on the kickstarter success! I knew it was a pretty crazy to begin with, and was assuming you guys weren't. But I'll be just as happy reading the dev journal. I can't wait for the development to begin - best luck to you guys once your project starts!
Creator Shaun Inman on December 13
Thanks so much! It goes without saying but we could not have done this without you! Looks like I missed some comments during the final push. Let's do this!
@Tarwin, Thanks for the Haxe Flixel tip. This looks *very* promising!
@Andrew, Sorry we couldn't address your separate poster request before the Kickstarter ended. We'd like to get a proper store set up once things get rolling. We'll post an update here and on retrogamecrunch.com when we do!
@Logan, We don't plan to release the source code but there should be lots of practical morsels in the development journal.
Thanks again everyone!
Creator Amadeu Pumar on December 12
Congratulations! :)
Creator Jeremy Hubert on December 12
Congrats Shaun and Co! Very happy to have helped make this happen! :)

Creator André Luís on December 12
Yay! I was honestly worried... and still can't understand why this didn't go through the roof but hey, all that matters is every 1687 backers + you 3 guys didn't get disappointed. Sweet! This is what the web was invented for.
Creator David Lechón Quiñones on December 12
Weeeeeeeeeeeehhhh, congrats guys! I'm very happy ^____^
Creator Andrew on December 12
Wow, So happy to see that this made it across the finish line successfully!
Was a nail biter for sure but I'm really looking forward to this project, super inspiring content will be hemorrhaging from this; motivating me to make my own stuff! Good luck! The hard part's about to begin!
Creator Alexandru Badiu on December 12

Creator Chad Johnson on December 12
Hooray!
Creator MagnetiCat on December 12
Well done! Having a chance to make games full time for 6 months is a dream come true for an indie game dev - I think it can be life changing - and I have no doubt you will make good use of the time. Can't wait for January!
Creator Blair Rorani on December 12
Mean! first Kickstarter project and it made it. Can't wait to play.
Creator Logan on December 12
So... what would you guys say to somehow doing a source release with these games as well? The Humble Bundle Mojam dev's did this with their 48 hour games and released the source code alongside the game itself. I found this to be an awesome learning experience and found it amazingly entertaining to look through/tweak and learn how they did things.
Just a thought - I know it's a big request, and I don't expect anything to come of it, but figured there wasn't really any reason not to ask.
Creator Bronson on December 11
WOOooo, we hit the goal!
Creator Donald Nguyen on December 11
We did it! Congratulations!
Creator Gerard Remy on December 11
Freaking Amazing!! Congratulations to everyone!! :D

Best of luck!
Creator Sourjelly on December 11
Congratulations Retro Game Crunch! You did it!
I mean ALL OF US backers and RGC, WE DID IT!!
Creator Logan on December 11
