Thank-you for Your Patience - And the Contest to Get to Space

Ouch - we had some very bad bugs on the weekend as we tried to fix the multiplayer join, but we hope you can hang on a little longer so we can get those fixes in.

The sales have been good, and they really help us fix bugs.

While the developers watered the cats and turned off the lights, a bad bad bug slithered into the build that stopped new players from continuing.

While I watch some of the new players groan and grovel on the sand on the lagoon, unable to move or launch their spacecraft, something else happened:

a miracle ! The game started selling well all over the world.

For those 9 players who got stuck in the mud while we tested a build I am really sorry, please come back and try again.

To all of you loyal supporters - well keep on keeping on; we've launched a contest to show our support as as soon as we collect another 90K or so in sales (to be very blunt), we'll be able to send one of you to astronaut training down in Florida.
When we do about 10 times as much we can send one of you up up and away.. (must be 18 ;) probably a couple of years from now.

The details to win are coming, and yes, it involves playing the game - of course.

Thanks Again,
Astronicus.
