Plus, imagine the backlash he'd receive if he left the shop open to purchases, despite knowing a bunch of buyers weren't getting what they paid for. It'd create a massive shitstorm for the guy. He did the best thing imo.
[QUOTE=loopoo;41282513]Grow up lol, you've waited this long, another couple of days won't hurt. I can't see it taking him too long to resolve any problems for people who already bought the game and haven't received it.
Your logic of "It's better that he leave the shop open and allow more users to buy it" is ridiculous, seeing as most of these purchases are ending up with the buyer not getting the game.
Now just a few people get to play who deserve to play, seeing as they paid money, instead of a whole lot more people [I]trying[/I] to play and being unable to, despite paying.[/QUOTE]
To be fair though, Wollay should have been far better prepared than this.
[QUOTE=Blueplastic;41282528]I know it won't happen, but it would be amazing if it was released on steam instead of...there[/QUOTE]
Pretty sure Wollay said at some point that it'll be on Steam.

wait what
WAIT WHAT
lol those unnecessary dumbs

why are you so surprised
it's not like steam is reserved for AAA developers
This was really early in development so unless he had a change of plans? I wouldn't be able to provide the source on that because it was months ago, but regardless there was a really big Q&A with Wollay and he talked about Steam.

There is a reason why Humble Store is popular among Indie Devs these days. So they don't have to worry about this shit. Messily 5% fee!

Do you have a source on that, because I remember hearing the opposite.

Yeah but Wollay seems to insist on doing everything himself, down to even making shitty custom forums that can't even do hyperlinks rather than using a free forum software or something.

what?
I never said that nor do I think that, quite the opposite actually.
The way he's handling the game doesn't seem like it's gonna be on steam and he never mentioned it either(at least not in the last few months)

It's a matter of professionalism. You better be prepared to make sure launches go smooth to prevent things like this in the first place.
I'm patient and really don't care that much. It's just frustrating that my friend is playing without me.

Nah I just recall something from a long time ago. Don't take my word for it.
Does anybody have a rehost of the tech demo? Me and a friend want to know 100% if it will run on our computers before we buy it.

Scanned & tested, it's legit.
On that note, Cubeworld runs perfectly on my computer. Woohoo.

I got that directly from the website and uploaded to [b]my[/b] dropbox.

lol, every key crashes the client :P
Yeah, doesn't do jack shit other than crash on a key press.
The tech demo is simulating the extreme case of the game. So if the tech demo runs, and the panning world is moving smoothly, then you can run the game smoothly.
The tech demo is literally just to see if it'll run. It's not supposed to do anything else, other than crash with any key press.
wait wtf when can i buy this shit
[QUOTE=Turing;41283835]wait wtf when can i buy this shit[/QUOTE]
As soon as the store comes back up. Watch @wol_lay for any tweets regarding this.

This should still be working.
Well I can run it then, it just has the camera turning around.
