while I have sympathy for hardships of being an indie developer, looking at this guy's games: [I] Cliff Harris (Democracy 3, Gratuitous Space Battles) [/I] yeah um, those are kinda, boring. Like first, Shmups are like the most anti-mainstream genre there is, expect a very niche audience and low sales no matter what you do, a Shmup will never be more than that. D3 has a bigger audience, but still pretty niche. I mean jesus really don't delude yourself into thinking these are games that are super highly wanted.
