If I can't get a response from a publisher here soon, I will be setting an Early Access release date of 1-2 months from now to give me some time to build up more wishlists before I pull the trigger.


Please post here when you have a date!


March 12!


This strikes me as a sort of Microprose aligned release. Do you have any publishers in mind?


No, I had considered Microprose, Kitfox, Hooded Horse. I reached out to some but I should have been reaching out a year or two ago. I didn't think I would need one, I still don't think I NEED one... But would have been nice. But I just set a release date as a kick in the butt to get this thing shipped, which pretty much burns the boats of signing a publisher. I think it is better this way though. If it fails it fails. But Michael and I get to keep whatever proceeds are made and we get to do things our way at our pace. But there's other games such as Speculator that also need revamped. I kinda want Hackjack Games to be a remastering game studio, a land of misfit games of sorts. Maybe I'll be more open to having a publisher in the future.
