When you ask for people's money to have faith in your game, your game is under more scrutiny.
Oh, the horror.

And on the sixth day the LORD David Bowie created man and woman in His image. And he saw that it was good. On the seventh day the LORD created videogames so that He might take the bloody day off for once.
I still don't understand how a bug in the online bonus mode is the main cause of a FIVE month delay. Especially when they've said the single player campaign has been complete for a while now. This shit don't add up, man.

Ok switched to other email and it worked. I thought this demo would be available to everyone lol.
To line up closer with the animated series that is supposed to come out next Spring, perhaps?
Came to post this. I'll believe it when it's in my hands.
I didn't found it in my HB account either, I had to use this: https://www.humblebundle.com/resender
The link will be in the list they'll send you.

Don't care anymore, I have pretty much moved on from Mighty No 9 and it's train wreck.
Hyperbole much?
Beside have you actually followed the Mighty No 9 project and saw how it quickly turned into shit?

Glad to hear the demo is out. Now I just have to figure out how to Steam and hope I can get a PC compatible controller easily.
I doubt it would have required the game to be delayed 5 months but if they have to delay the game for say like 2 months, I can understand if they don't feel its worth launching right next to CoD or Halo 5 or whatever.
I can probably count the number of Kickstater video games that released on their initial timeline on one hand probably. That delay also brought with it actual improvements to the game and physical editions. Anyone salty about the April to September delay is just a whiner. The September to February delay I can understand people's frustration however.

That's the word why it was delayed weeks ago.

While that's true, this project has also made it pretty obvious to me a lot of the general gaming public (and even kickstarter backers) doesn't really understand anything about game development or kickstarter and really loves to jump on the most reactionary bandwagon.

Surely that's enough time to adjust the textures and lighting so it doesn't look like a super budget off brand knock off, right? I mean, since they've gotten bad reactions to the aesthetic all along. Maybe throw in some sort of slick looking cel shading to appease backers who waited forever and want something a tick closer to the original concept. Eh? Eh?
sure, if you want it to get delayed again
we got 3DS versions to make b

mmmmmmohmygoddd, stop fucking lyiiiiiiiing
Fuck, please don't tell me it stinks.
Only if the Megaman Zero spiritual predecessor's KickStarter hasn't hit funding yet.
use the order resender button on the bottom of the page and it should come in a email.
Same as you. My Mighty No 9 page on Humble Bundle is just blank with nothing there.

Of course it does. You think they are delaying it to polish the game? Preposterous!

No it's not garbage, it's alrightish I think? Just from playing through the stages.
But I'm not feeling it, I really have no real reaction to playing it. I'm coming off very neutral from my playthrough. Things like the game not recognizing my dpad for some reason despite re-calibration doesn't help either.
But then not all the content is in the demo.
That said Shovel Knight to me is actually what I hope this could have been.
From the checkpoint mechanics, to the level design, to the economy/item mechanics, to the general aesthetics, that whole game just spoke to me instantly.
And hell we just got Plague Knight for free.
Edit: Thinking on it I might be mostly underwhelmed by the level design just wasn't super interesting but maybe I somehow missed stuff.
You're gonna get a TV show aimed at children ages 6-11 and you're gonna like it!
I have. Takes me to the same page with nothing on it.
Why in the world would you think it would be available to you on a new unrelated account?
Just tried the demo. This game is really, really ugly. And it's puzzling how the character models got the okay from Inafune (who is supposedly in charge of okaying assets if the videos are to be believed). They are unpleasant to look at, especially when the camera zooms in extra close for the cutscenes. Beck's profile looks especially weird.
"Hyperbole" is a good word for the reactions to anything regarding Mighty No. 9 on it since people were howling that it was going to turn into feminist propaganda because of a community manager.

Also not a fan off the constant "story elements" intruding despite skipping all of them.
It actually breaks the flow for me. Maybe there is a way to auto skip them?

No, they're very important to the cross-promotion of the television cartoon.
I love the GET READY - GO message at the start of the first level, immediately followed by a cutscene. You don't even get a chance to take a step!
This whole project reeks of multimedia synergy.

Wow, almost forgot that was even a thing.
And if I remember right, they also got a live action project in the works. Priorities.

I'm actually looking forward to the story interrupting the gameplay but I do hope there is a "no story" mode since after beating the game once it will be anoying to me. From September to February is a long delay so there better not be game breaking bugs or I'm gonna be really disappointed on Inti Creates.
Played the intro stage and I thought it was fun. Really fluid movement and fast paced gameplay. The character models aren't the best and the no moving mouths of the characters are jarring. The story was actually okay after the awkward intro. I liked that the characters can talk while you're moving around and shooting things.
