Greetings, friends.
We're busy on single player and a variety of actually-quite-exciting business-related stuff today, but there's still time to quickly mention our deal with GamingZap.
If you pre-order Frozen Synapse you'll receive a 10% off voucher for your next purchase.
Conversely, if you buy anything in GamingZap's Frozen Synapse promotion, you'll get a voucher for 15% off the pre-order, so it works both ways!
This is the first such promotion we've done with a hardware company and we're hoping it'll bring some nice results. We met the guys from GamingZap at an event for local businesses and they really have some awesome products - was very tempted by some of the over-the-top shiny gaming mice myself...
I think this is something indies should try to do more - it's not just big companies that can do cross promotion. I hope this is a success so we can extend this sort of thing in future.
I'm amazed to see the value you guys are bringing to an already great product.
Free Steam keys, free copies for friends, free games, now discounts on gaming gear we don't need (but the option's always nice lol, nearly time I got an upgrade :D) and focus on a fun and challenging single player campaign in a game that would sell regardless of SP's presence.
I would still like to see some improvements to menu navigation, but that's just me being a selfish *** like usual :D
Keep up the good work, best of success with FS, and I don't think you'll need any luck when your next big hit reaches ModDB!
Cheers for this - very encouraging.
Menus are very high priority - I'm completely committed to getting that right. I class the menu flow we have right now as "pretty terrible", just to give you an idea of how much I expect it to improve by release.
