Noogy, after your game makes its first five million dollars, do you plan on making a sequel or using the engine with different settings (Cybernator clone, wuxia, etc?)

Nvm.
A lot of developers find out or experiment with ideas while working on games, but usually they don't feel like they fit or for other reasons (time, money etc). Noogy is one hell of a talented dude, so I know he has more ideas rumbling in that beautiful head of his.
You'd be surprised
Your music in the game is incredible!
Aw thank you
Dan Byrne-McCullough is my partner in musical crime, we wrote the soundtrack together. Means a lot to hear you and others enjoying it!

The music reminds me of batman for some odd reason. The trailer just reminds me of The Dark Knight. I don't know why. It just has that epic and mysterious feel.
As it should I reckon, one of the things Dean & I discussed was making the trailer a bit dark, so I did take some influences from Hans Zimmers approach to Dark Knight for the sake of the trailer. Plus some of my own, almost a nod to Zimmers work across the entire trilogy, but mainly just a bit of fun

Yep, we are both huge fans of Zimmer, among other composers. It was fun referencing much of my favorite music from games and film and then having Chris create something even cooler.
The trailer music is very VERY good. It's a pale shadow compared to what's in the game. I should have changed the tagline to "Listen to the Awesome 8.15.12"

Will buy day 1. Looks amazing!
You know we discussed that many times. Then agreed upon it. And in addition to that, we have an anti-thanks section, to all the people who have wronged us in our struggle forward to complete Dust. It's 90% of the credits duration.
I honestly have no idea. But maybe that's because I grew up in the era of Sonic, Earthworm Jim, Sparkster, High Seas Havoc, Bubsy and Awesome Possum. One more animal doing spectacular stunts is a plus in my book.

I bet he's got the design document already finished along with some random animations sitting on his computer.
You can't turn it off.

Monday will be review day.
Been interested in this since I first heard of it, which seems like ages
Is there a strict embargo going on? Can we expect any quick look style previews before release?
Yes, the embargo is law. Won't be seeing anything until around Monday at 9am PST. As soon as that happens, I'll be in here handing out freebies.
so, it'll be a "first to input code" gets the game kind of thing? Or will you send them via private message?

Popular thread compared to other SoA game.
Weren't Deadlight and Hybrid more hyped than this before SoA started ?

Its was awesome talking to you at PAX East while playing your game. You seemed so happy to finally let the public get their hands on it and gizz all over themselves while playing it. That day I said to myself this is 100% bought no matter what.
Thanks
Yeah, PAX was very weird. I mean, working on this thing in total secrecy for years, and having no idea if it's even good anymore. It was nice to see others enjoying the game, although I admit I wasn't prepared for the nearly 2 hour lines just to play Dust:AET.That's brilliant. I wonder if anybody on the list will play the game.
Word if mouth hit and also some very high profile developers had glowing reviews for the game during various conferences Friday. Once that happened it was over. I made sure to get to the game up first thing Saturday and swung by later and saw the line 10-20 people deep.Thanks
The same thing happened with Bastion last year.
Yeah, I talked to Greg K about it afterwards and he echoed that sentiment. Basically that they had no idea how incredibly well Bastion was going to show. Humble to the end, those guys.
This is fantastic, I'll be at work but will try to be on GAF and in this thread around 9am. Would love for some freebies, whatever that enTAILS ... get it, Tails. ?

This is definitely the bastion of this year, I hope you make hordes of money so you can make the next game and create some unique innovative stuff for whatever you do next.
