    The Relic, is it old news or coming soon?

    The Relic, is it old news or coming soon?
    The screenshots looked great and I was anticapating it as soon as I heard about it. Then it got moved back to early 2010, but as far as I know no new updates on it have come out. If anyone has any info on this it would be greatly appreciated because my giftcards are going away and so is the space on my ipod as I fill with great games... I really wanted to get this one but I don't know who the devs are so this is sort of a shout out from a gauntlet fan who is willing to purchase your game as soon as it comes out... if I have the money. Anyone who has any info if this app was cancelled or if is coming soon will be greatly appreciated by me, and possibly anyone else who wants this game. Also I want bring back intrest in it incase it does come out, but the dev's because of their late entrance, don't get half the downloads they deserve... Anywhoo please tell me what you know, if you know... and no iFallout stuff on this thread ok :D

    This game looks amazing. According to the dev it should be out by February...which pisses me off. This is my most anticipated upcoming app besides Pirate's Gold.

    And yes, multiplayer is local :/ still....looks crazy

    Quick update on 'The Relic'

    The Relic Update -

    I'm still burning the midnight oil ironing out the kinks in multiplayer. Trying to make The Relic as solid an experience as possible and we're almost to the final stretch. It's now very stable with a decent framerate even on 1G devices. It looks, plays and sounds significantly better than what was shown in the last video.

    Once it's totally feature-complete, then beta testing and bug-fixing. I suspect Chillingo will want some specific improvements as well. Given our very limited resources we can't commit to a specific date (a mistake I made before) but we're looking at sometime in the next three months at the outside, and I hope sooner.

    Thank you all for your interest in our game. It's awesome to know that when The Relic comes out, it will be met with such anticipation. Of course, there's a financial motivation to make a game like this BUT it really is, in the end, more a labor of love than anything else - It's such a thrill to create the kind of games I love to play.

    :)

    3 MONTHS!?!?! Eliminate multiplayer for the first release and add it in an update. We're dying to play this game!

    I mean I get the whole polish thing. Thats fine....but 3 months for a polish? Thats ****in dumb. Like I dont get how it goes from coming out in November 2009 to May 2010! I mean I respect ou guys as developers but thats just ridiculous.

    not that i even have a clue as to what this game is about (but the hype seems to make me think i should be excited), but personally i second the motion of releasing without multiplayer and adding it in as a patch.

    specifically since i never touch multiplayer in any game anyway :)

    whoah...excuse me? this is a hell of a negative reaction to throw in the developer's face for taking the time to deliver a decent and complete package to us. the 3 months will do nothing but good things for the title, and it's not like we won't have a bunch of other apps to keep us busy in the meantime. from a business standpoint, getting that multiplayer in on day one is definitely a key and important feature. they could add it in at a later patch, but by then the release hype will have completely passed them by, the publicity won't be on the same scale, and those early negative reviews complaining about the lack of replay value due to the lack of multiplayer will be stuck to it.

    calling the delay "ridiculous" and "****in dumb" is going a bit too far, honestly.
