Can't wait to tell all my friends about RimWorld.

Have just noticed this, is it worth getting?

Glaucus · 1 Oct 2014 at 20:16

I'm enjoying it. It's very early and still needs a huge amount adding to it. But regular updates and seems to be going well.

Nice the new update added a lot today.

caff · 1 Oct 2014 at 22:10

It's certainly coming along. I'm liking the mood and health stats.

Started a colony today, one of my chaps decided to wall himself in when mining. Left him to it to see what would happen - he went mad. One of the other two got shot by a pirate, so I buried him, but then the remaining survivor contracted the plague. Game over.

Was quite surprised to realise the creator has written books on game design, and worked on Bioshock Infinite.

Hope it does not turn out to be a bum deal.

I'm really enjoying Rimworld, it's one of the few kickstarter games I've backed and I'm actually playing through the alpha builds. Not had chance to play with alpha 7 yet but really looking forward to getting some time with it as he has added loads of stuff

Reppyboyo · 2 Oct 2014 at 14:49

The only kickstarter game ive backed and its very good even at this stage IMO.

Very unforgiving though.

Glaucus · 10 Dec 2014 at 22:46

yay alpha 8 is out.

snow all biomes now available, windturbines, heaters and a load of other stuff.

Hmm wonder if that means complete game ready then. Rather then alpha stages.

Think ill just go ahead an buy off rimworld site.

qotsa · 21 Dec 2014 at 11:55

Buy it off the site. It's too good to wait for

thedude23 · 21 Dec 2014 at 12:31

Very tempted by this

Glaucus · 21 Dec 2014 at 14:35

I expect we will also get a code to activate on steam if we wish.

thedude23 · 21 Dec 2014 at 20:50

Does this have a steep learning curve?

Ayahuasca · 21 Dec 2014 at 21:04

Is this the game that Chilean Radio DJ was playing?

Not really steep. It's a lot more straight forward than it looks once you're actually playing it. That said it does require some experimenting to succeed unless you're watching youtube vids etc. Also there are 5 or 6 difficulty levels so you can get used to things on easy mode if you wish.

Can't recommend this game highly enough.
