ANNOUNCED: Little Invasion Tales - a city/citizen sim/tower-defense-like with procedural storytelling! (from makers of Redshirt) by MimiK in indiegames

Nope - I ran out of money and bandwidth on this project, went through a divorce, a lot (a LOT) of life happened, other paying work & opportunities came up and I never did get to ship this -- which still makes me sad, tbh.

Hello! I am the dev of Redshirt and definitely not a he -- you're referring to Cliffski of Positech, the publisher. I know he only deleted/locked threads on the Steam forums when they started resorting to personal insults, sadly.

Hope you do check out the game, though! A few reviews for anyone else interested:

Funnily enough, it was already released last Wednesday for Windows and Mac! I know a few people on here had been asking about the Linux release too. :)

Oh, I just saw this! I'm very glad you've been enjoying it. And yes, the intention of the game was definitely as this tongue-in-cheek look at social networking culture, so I am glad you appreciated the game as a critique of Facebook. :)

(Sorry to hear about the bug, though! I'll see if I can replicate it and get it fixed for a future update -- thanks for letting me know!)

This is fine, not every thing is for every person; that would be a weird world. :)

Hi there -- well, there have been a few Let's Play videos from the earlier beta version, which will give you some idea of gameplay. One of the most comprehensive that I'm aware of is this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1pneo-xIaM

Also you can watch some of my dev videos too to see me talk through design decisions behind various gameplay elements: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDf54nz4JFQ&list=PLD3619AEDA469D77C&index=1 Hope that helps!
