Blastaway, a new game for AmigaOS 4 (?)

[TribbleSmasher]

This is looking really promising, i like the idea.

Regarding success with game developement:
These days you must have many contacts/followers or huge amount of cash to get the advertisement rolling, unfortunately.

Indiegames are so plentiful now it became harder every year to stay visible.
Look what happened to Tower57, that is an awesome game and still failed to become commercially successful.

Anyway i wish you all the best.

Look what happened to Tower57, that is an awesome game and still failed to become commercially successful.

What? I'd be surprised if it were so: it got more than fully funded on Kickstarter, then it found a publisher, it's available on GOG, Steam, HumbleBundle, who knows where else, and even for AmigaOS 4. To me it looks like a perfectly successful project (and it definitely deserved success).

Sadly, as they were two people to pay, the money that came in was not enough:

The game has performed decently enough to help me  work on the aforementioned patches and fixes.

Unfortunately, Tower 57  did not perform good enough in the long term to allow me to create the  boxed version of the game. I sincerely apologize for this situation. I  have tried as hard and as long as I could to  keep this campaign promise, but with the game's revenue dwindling I was  forced to look for a more "traditional" job in order to start repaying  the personal debt I have accumulated throughout the development of the game.

The point is, even with a really brilliant game you might not sell enough to make a living.

Cool, you are very busy, keep on going


Btw, i stil believe you could ask 1$ + donations.

Usually, with a Continue the player gets stripped from his bonusses and score when restarting at a higher level.

A game worth playing is a game worth paying for.
