    +1 to that. I love independent RPGs.

    It's a huge shame I'm not a fan of turn based RPG's because this is the most incredibly styled game of the lot of them.

    It does look pretty slow, though I still want to buy it. With that said, now I think I'll be able to wait until this comes out on the PSP.

    I'm not as desperate to have it.

    Ive been waiting for this game forever, but im thinking of just skipping it now. Not because it doesn't look good but because im starting to feel jerked around by the publisher. Delay after delay with no information and then I get my hopes up for the release that is supposed to happen any day now, and then another "slight delay" that will be who knows how long. Just my two cents.

    Anyways :rolleyes:


    It's a shame it might take longer, but I'll still purchase it whenever this get's released, probably as a Mini though. Either way the delay hasn't made me want it less, it might be frustrating, but it hasn't made the game any less appealing to me whatsoever.

    The publisher/dev isn't "jerking" around anybody, they're just trying to ensure that they launch the game the best they can. They have no reason to be jerking any customer around.

    I am amazed at the entitlement people feel when it comes to game releases. This is actually a good thing for these devs and yet some are saying they won't get it now since it will be delayed?? It will be the same game - either you want it or not.

    In the meantime, today had a bunch of releases to fill the time.

    I'd rather a delay that ensures a solid release vs a release like 100 rogues where the game crashes every 5 minutes (and the developer even admitted to releasing it with major bugs due to money issues). We should thank developers who take extra time to clean up any bugs/errors.

    The only good iPhone example of a developer "jerking" us around is EA Mobile with Mirror's Edge. That is essentially a completed game that was suddenly delayed for the iPad version and now has essentially disappeared off the face of the earth with no clues on when it might come out. SteamPirates delays are nothing like this.

    Yep, game delays are only bad when there's a lack of communication between the player and dev. Even just dropping a message that you're fixing a few bugs or whatever can go a long way.

    Was it submitted or not?
    If yes, the game should appear slowly...

    Yes, but Luc wrote on twitter (on Monday):

    "for everyone's info I have no idea if SteamPirates has been submitted it was supposed to? sigh, if only you guys knew how frustrated I am"


    First, he said it was submitted... and now that? I don't really understand this.
    He can always check the status on the devs AppStore if it is waiting in line or already in review.
