Love their video:

not my style of game but that video did make me want to buy it.

Went to Eurogamer today. If you want to buy into the Alpha you can get 10% off (making it $27) by using the discount code 'folsom'.

Hope that helps, makes it about 17 quid

Bought this over the weekend and had a quick go. It is surprisingly complex even at this early stage. It's more of a graphical Dwarf Fortress rather than a Theme whatever title.

bought this, I love it, like Clav said its a little complex and have to balance what you do, but I love it a lot

Don't flame me, I know it's an Alpha, but it feels a bit low rent to me. There are obviously a number of bugs too.

So... what were you expecting since you know its an alpha? A full, completed, perfect game? :confused:

Yer I agree with iviv its alpha at the moment, its not really a playable game just give it a chance

Alpha 2 is out now! Improvements to the guards, including assigning sectors and patrols, a change in the intake rate system, and some mystery updates to food!

Clav · 20 Oct 2012 at 01:13

Looking forward to checking it out!

I like the concept of this game.

You do realise how development cycles work don't you?

CaptainRAVE · 20 Oct 2012 at 08:42

Looks like it has potential. Will watch this one for when it is fully released.

HungryHippos · 20 Oct 2012 at 10:28

Bought this myself as well, that earlier discount code posted above still worked so thanks!

Looks like it should be a laugh to play. Perhaps a bit on the expensive side though, would normally expect a game like this to be a tenner or so at the most.

No, otherwise I'd have a pony tail.

Oooo didnt know they'd stopped working on the other game. Glad to see they're working on something though.... Their games (bar defcon) are some of my faves

Introversion don't seem very "Indie" anymore tbh. Guess it depends on how you define it, but they have grown quite significantly.

Wiki agrees

There is no exact widely-accepted definition of what constitutes an "indie game".https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indie_game#cite_note-3However, generally indie games share certain commonalities. Indie games are developed by individuals, small teams, or small independent companies
