Nice work @Marko
Just, can you explain how we’re suppose to like specifically the Edit part?
(joke aside, it think that’s most reasonable not inflicting yourself such a pain – even though I totally understand the longing for just waiting a bit before having the pleasure to (re-)discover the whole finished game.)
I just want to say this:
What is this all about guys?
You gave your money to a team of people, to create a game you like.
So all you can do is wait for the game to be finished… end of the story. Now, luckly you dont have to wait for it to be finished, you can play it while they still work on it. HOW GREAT IS THAT?
And what are you doing? whining here in the forum that you want your money back?
Just outta curiosity, Is there a time today we can expect an announcement/Decision will be made? @UncasualGames
I have been backer for 2,5 years now, so why you guys fighting for the few days??!!!
I feel like I should take more time, to create an answer respecting the effort you put into this comment. I read it twice now and at this point I can at least say, that I respect your point of view and I am thankful for the insight.
As I see it, we differ on point 3.
Based on the experiences I had with crowdfunded projects, I see the relation to the community as paramount to the success of such a project in the long run. And the damage that could be done by showing a less refined version is much more temporal when there is progress.
So, at a point where these two consequences are at odds, I would choose a)
As you stated you had different experiences with crowdfunding projects and I respect the logic that lead you to your conclusion.
To “Why am I not a beta”
I am not sure, if it is wise for me to talk about that, since it delutes my point of just being about the communication and not the actual process.
But I want to value the effort you put into this aswell. In general terms, I think the optimal solution would be to reward the risk that is taken and therefore the trust that is given. The two aspects of that would be the money spend and the time when it was given. Of course this doesn’t take into account that the same amount of money does have different value to different people. This has to be taken into account aswell for a truly optimal solution.
This information is difficult to acquire though. Therefore the only solid data-point is the point in time, when someone pledged. A delivery of keys according to this could be seen as the best of all sub-optimal solutions, I think.
Btw. I would be one of the last people to get a key, eitherway. 
This is irrelevant though, if a different process is choosen by the devs and you willingly agreed to it.
Some of us simply feel we were tricked into agreeing to that.
I think you knew I would disagree on the last part and I held back on that topic, because you explicitly asked me to. Don’t know how I should feel about that you brought it up again. …
It’s just about the butter being delivered at the right time. Not the money for the butter, maybe the dairywoman, but that’s neither here nor there.
Interesting answer, and really no offense taken in any part of it 
About the choice for the testers, though, I think it would be very complicated to take such things as longest support or motivation into account.
The thing is the devs had to find a way to sort out possible testers – a way that had to be easy explain to everyone, and being efficient.
But, if we think about it – and leaving aside the time needed to sort out efficiently the possible testers – would any other option be sure to offer a higher quality testing? Maybe, but I’m really not sure of that.
Probably professional testers could help. But they have a cost, there’s to explain them the project from scratch, define agreements and expected results, etc.
So, well, that’s really not an easy thing.
Wasn’t it today? It changes?
For what is worth, I have seen the developers say (tweet?) that they will check if it’s easy to give out access first to those who have been backers the longest. If that’s too time-consuming to implement, they will have to disregard that.
Im a lord-backer and ik the game is supposed to come to me today but that it may get delayed but this is also me: every 5 mins clicking refresh on his email
The release for today was a maybe if things went as planned… you guy talking about today being the guaranteed day lord got their key are a bunch of Karen’s.
Testing new WIP version 0.0.1.7 in order to take a decision about dispatching keys to Lord backers. More info very soon.
Would it be possible for testers to help volunteer going through bug reports, especially when things start to ramp up once Lord’s recieve there keys and all the reports start flowing in, sorry just haven’t been excited for a game like this in so long and really want to help to do anything to help this game succeed
Kinda like a Ticket Support System full of free helpers? Would be a great idea tbh
There is a WIP subforum we are supposed to post bugs in I think. Was available for all until they closed it behind permissions
Hi hi everyone hope you all have a nice day, soo wow god bless this game cause its not online holy cow more than 200 messages full of toxicity and baby crying about their keys.
Come on boys
First let the dev work ffs this is not EA this is a small team doing their best to delivery a almost perfect or at least a nice game speaking about performance so chill out keys will come sure 
Second you think they don’t want to give you the keys or something? They’re the most interested about test their game so trust me my fellow Lord the dev gonna be glad to give you your keys asap. But important point they have the responsibility of give you the key in time BUT not to give you a piece of garbage instead a good game? cause you are in your house bored for the Covid19 and you need to do something
Remember this is a game no a business if you have the game today or in a week you don’t gonna win anything lol
DEVS you are amazing, six updates in four days wow !!! DEVS They work at 120%
are you already play the game?
Good Work. I am always with you. No hurry. Take your time. 
I patiently waiting from 2017. If I can wait for 3 years, then I have no problem for waiting some days. Because I know that you will gift me a very very nice game. I always salute your hard work everytime. Best of luck.
Totally agree going though these forms and just reading are so hard, this developers have devoted so much time and you can see the passion in this project and honestly sick of seeing people rip on them. Honestly everyone should share there love for the work they are putting in this game , guys we are the cheer squad and honestly we are doing a shit job
no, not yet. But they started at version 0.0.1.1 and now have 0.0.1.7
