    There are a lot of alternatives to StS on the App Store but I don't think any of them come close to the real thing. (I could be wrong though) The longest 2 I played were Silent of the Abyss and Pirate Outlaws.

    Yeah, even I bought a few of them and tried out a few F2P games as well but got bored of them soon enough.

    So “The Guerilla Collective” an event where StS were going to make their big iOS date announcement.........has been delayed.
    Moved from the 6th (when StS said they would announce) to the 13th....

    lol, standby (again) for a clarification on future announcements from Megacrit (hopefully)

    Haha. If this is true then that's exactly what I meant. Don't jump the gun until you have a fixed release date. Now, I won't be surprised if even the release gets delayed with all that's going on.

    Sigh, anyway, I'll just believe it when it actually releases. All this talk is of news, info, announcements is just exhausting.

    This is why I hate all the pre-release hype on some games. It does nothing to promote goodwill with the user and developer. They don't need to go on some pod cast to announce a release date. Announce it already. It's just a dangling carrot and leads nowhere except for empty speculation and useless discussion. I'll believe it when the game is released.

    With the Guerrilla Collective show postponed, you’d think Mega Crit would at least tweet whether they also are delaying the announcement or saying something today anyway. Radio silence again.

    Y'all are being really hard on Mega Crit. Remember, these are all factors that are out of their hands coming into play. I'm sure they're bothered by all this delay too...which, in fact, can be deduced by this reply on Twitter:

    "They moved it to the 13th. (Of course the day after our post)"

    "They" being a forum in which they were going to announce a release date (basically an announcement to make an announcement), which they could do without the forum. Publisher issues, I agree, are out of their hands.

    I would be surprised if this wasn't imposed on them by the publisher.

    Agreed. These are part of marketing plans and a lot of planning and money goes into it. They can’t just change it on the fly just because it’s pro-consumer. Plus yeah, it’s the publishers who decides all that. Development team has no control over it.

    Definitely looking forward to this. Never played STS before but I love roguelikes & card-based games so I think this’ll be a good fit :D

    Any word on cross-device saves? It’d be nice to be able to swap from iPhone to iPad.
     
  12. Would love that too...yes iPad and iPhone syncing

    2 more days, and then we will have a release by the end of the month. I’m beyond excited. It’s been a really stressful month for me with having moved for the first time in 13 years, so to have this done to me is just the panacea I need right now.

    Combine that with one of the best few months in music over the last while (Fiona, run the jewels, haim, dirty projectors) and I couldn’t be happier.

    Come on Saturday!

    added to my library for my walk tomorrow!

    I had one of her songs saved from the blue Christmas album we all listen to. Thanks for the suggestion!
