Hello Space Explorers,
My name is Justin and I'm in charge of Meteoric Games. Over the last few years, me and my team - which for the majority of the time was just a programmer - took on an ambitious project that was Jumpdrive.
I'm here to address what has been said this last couple of days about the state of the final game. Indeed, we intended Jumpdrive to look different when the game finally releases, and I sincerely apologize to anyone who expected more than what we delivered. Unfortunately, it is simply impossible to for small, indie studio to artificially sustain the development of a game for so long. Truth be told, every last penny earned from Steam Early Access was spent back on development, and it was still far from enough.
Which is why I decided to set it to full release and lower the price of the game.
While the situation is far more complex, I'm not writing to you to offer excuses nor to blame anyone. I only wish to apologize to those who wanted more from Jumpdrive.
I know I cannot change the past, but as a small token of this apology, I wanted to say that those who supported us from the very beginning will receive free access to our next game.
Thank you for your understanding!
Justin
