As this is a port of a much higher profile game, with the possibility of a load more high profile games behind it, guess which won... We are hoping to have the Survivor demo out asap, before the release, ideally... heh, one of us, me, is busy with a million company things, the other one, one of the devteam, is working on a different project that needs finishing first.

As for Bandits, don't have time as in busy doing other things in the company or busy doing things outside of work? I would have thought an unfinished port (one of the things that will keep the company alive) would be of a main concern?

Seems to be a new reply... Does that mean that there is gonna be a demo of Shadowgrounds? Because that'd be pretty nice. Btw. I hate this captcha system, i already made it my habit to save the written stuff before i send it... Who were those replies directed to? Seems to be a new reply…

Demo will be available before launch, not sure exactly when

Majesty boxes will be delivered the same day Survivor is delivered

Bandits is slow cos only 2 people in the company are trained to do the last bit that is missing (penguinplay integration) and neither of us have spare time.

Also you annouced stuff about majesty before, when will the new build be available with a new demo any ideas (since you guys are doing that!). As for Bandits why is it going to slow then?

I'm pleased to see that Shadowgrounds has gone gold now. I'm gonna order it right when it's there, I wish they could send me the gold master right away. :P Is the gold master actually still made of gold? I somehow doubt it.
