Thank you for pointing this out, I will try to make this thread stick to the top. I was also not aware that the pledge levels were displayed in kronor for everyone. I will look into this. Thank you for your support!

Apparently the currency is always linked to the origin of the campaign. However, backers based in the US will also see each project's goal displayed in USD even if the project is based outside of the US.

Unfortunately i only saw it in Swedish Kronas, and i'm from Switzerland. I also changed my original post to be only about facts ;)

Thank you so much! It would be awesome if they picked up on it. I have tried to reach out to German players a bit, but it is hard since i dont have any German contacts :)

A personal concern.
 

Please, do not lose sight of the fact a ship have a crew. The captian does not get to single-handedly man it all. Turning wheels and pushing levers is fine and all but please dont forget that a ship is never a one man affair; there's always a dedicated crew around.

By all means let the player push and turn any and all controls there is but don't fall pray to the trap where the player have to do it all. Once again, remember, there's a trained crew onboard the ship. Let the player push as many buttons as they want for sure; djust dont make it so the player have to do it all by himself.

ty. carry on.

tempa, no worries, this game relies on the crew (other players) to operate smoothly.

If it goes ahead you will see my name in the credits :up:

I sent your Project with a Little Text to a big German Newssite "gamestar" and he replied "Das ist ein toller Vorschlag, da werden wir was zu machen. Vielen Dank!" in english "Thats a great suggestion, we will make something about that! thank you".
Hopefully this can boost your project aswell!

Welcome aboard!
 

blackcan, that's really nice of you to make that effort. Yeah, we need more guys to reach out to other sites and media to get this game the attention is merits. If the Kickstarter fails....:-?

Thank you so much! Please tell us if you find the article :D

I've emailed the crew at Good Game: a popular Aussie Video game review show on free to air TV.

Hope it's not late. They also do a daily youtube show so maybe it'll get a mention on that.:hmm2:
