As I've mentioned before, I'm a huge fan of getting Jellybeans Blog article">feedback from my games. I actually think that I might use tigsources, game devlog project thingamajig. I'm not sure if I want to maintain yet ANOTHER social media type of thing.
But, anyways, I am getting more comfortable with the idea of feedback for my games. Again, my mindset is a lot different than what I started as. Whereas before, I thought that making PERFECT games was important, I realize now that, given my toolsets, I just need to do the best I can. In the end, what matters is having a finished playable project.
As for the feedback of Earth Tower Defense, it's been better than I thought it would be. Well, I guess it's going as well as I thought it would be. I suppose I had pretty high expectations for it already. People seem to think it's an all right game, nothing too special. There are some game play balances, but I get the impression that it's FUN. Maybe a little forgettable, but that's okay!
It's always amazing to me some of the things that people notice about the game that I wouldn't even think about. For example, most people think that the turret fires too slowly. I was constantly lowering the speed of the turret because I thought that they fired too quickly. Well, I guess you live and learn...
In any case, I'm still not going to do any more coding until AT LEAST Sunday. I decided that it's important to just let the game sit there as I get feedback before I go about making any significant changes.

Oh, and the website is gonna be down for a bit while the site changes hosts. I'm not sure when it'll be back up. I would imagine in less than a week.
