I plan to require that all of my students purchase Multiwinia. Sure, some of them don't have computers, but they can still buy the game! They will get Fs if they don't! Bwahahahahahaah!!!!!

For a company as small as Introversion, there is no amount of "extra effort" that could have gotten the XBLA version out at the same time as the PC version. There just aren't enough people to have gotten the job done. The only alternative would have been to delay release of the PC version until the XBLA version was done.

I just hit up the Stardock community, both in the forum and PMs to the developers. If anyone else is here that is a member of the Stardock forums and can bump the thread so that it gets front page notice, I'd be appreciative!

Edit: I also just dropped a line to Joystiq, they seem to have missed the release of the game.

ND-- oh.

Knowing the community of IV (do I?), the real deal comes when modding/mapping is properly introduced. :D

QFT. Once it is easy to create more maps, I hope to see some new players. ;)

After WolfLord was already trying to poke my eyes out on IRC, your site finally did it.
I'm blind now.

Fuck you.

Blogged, plus I've gifted two mates a copy each on Steam. This game deserves to thrive.

I was afraid of this. Somehow, I knew that Multiwinia would be initially neglected.
I will be doing whatever I can to help.

Such a change to the demo could be a great boon to the game. I go to LAN parties pretty often, and I plan to show Multiwinia off to anyone I can. Being able to let anyone there play the actual game with me, however, would be far better.
I look forward to that capacity.

Anyone want to whip up some promotional posters, like for pasting around schools and such? I would, but I'm hopeless with artistic endeavors.

Shwart!!

Idea; could you start a fan page on Facebook, so that we can start snowballing fans for the game?
