I think it could be nice to show where KeeperRL gets some interest over the world. It's still early, but i'm sure it will grow.

You are awesome :). Please let me know if there is any specific feedback on these French forums, like bug reports. I don't speak French unfortunately.

This is the first thread I made about KeeperRL on roguetemple:
http://forums.roguetemple.com/index.php?topic=3466.0

And one on a Polish forum:

Here's the topic on KeeperRL I started yesterday on FreeGameDev: http://forum.freegamedev.net/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=5425
(already linked in another topic of this forum, but the purpose of this thread is to list places where KeeperRL is being discussed IIUC).

BTW, you might want to edit the thread name to “Spreading the word” (unless it was an intended pun ;)).

Not sure actually, i feel it's fine like this, but english is not my native language so maybe it sounds weird for you ?

Do you guys have any favorite bloggers or editors that write about this kind of games? If you do let me know, so I can email them and we can get more coverage for the campaign.

Totalbiscuit is probably the most influential content creator out there. If you send it to him there is a chance he might look at it or even look at it in time. He pretty much single-handedly passed the Roam kickstarter after making a video and putting it out on reddit 2 days before it ended. Given how he traditionally reviews AAA titles and occasionally throws bones to some miner studios, I cant promise he would make time for a 2D indie game in particular. Also he is occasionally the source of PR faux pas, so be wary of that.

Hmm, the Halibut guy is probably out of my league 😛

Got some nice press coverage in the last few days:

I suppose a bit of context for this link would be helpful.

I'm one of the developers of Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead (a survival Roguelike game about the eschaton) and we have a nicely active forum devoted to the game, with subforums for topics such as other cool games like yours. Today I added a post about the game and link to your website here.

May your code be clean and your bugs be simple; good luck!

Hey, thanks for sharing and the kind words. I've never played Cataclysm:DDA, but I've heard very good things about it.

I know you guys did a crowdfunding campaign too. If you could give me any hints that would be great, especially on promotion, since I completely suck at it 🙂

Cheers,
Michal
