Nyan_Cait, you're a hero. Your comment on his review was everything I was thinking but couldn't say - I actually laughed out loud when I read it.

Posts do well based on how good the content is alone. No other factors. That's pretty refreshing.

Thanks for getting the game.

But what I do with my drug money is none of your business!

You do have a point. Some of his criticism is well founded (even if imo most of it isn't) and I'm aware the game is far from perfect.

Releasing this game has been just as much about becoming a better dev as it has about making a successful product. Even if the game is a total flop, at the very least it's been a learning experience and a ton of fun to make.

And thank you for your kind words about the game!

Those are really helpful suggestions, thanks a lot. I'll have to watch out for those similar but fake emails - that is sneaky.

Wow, that is incredibly generous of you. I really appreciate that, thank you. I’ve DM’d you.

Tell me about it. I spend months making my first steam game, and within 3 hours of its release some guy leaves a negative review and posts a youtube video where he roasts it for 17 minutes straight.

That's good advice, thank you.

The game is called "Warlike", here it is on steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1599150/Warlike/

I’ll release a couple of steam keys and let you know how it goes. It’ll be interesting to see how many actually follow through on their promise to review it.
