Frack the World is Available Now!

Frack the World is available now!

Wow. So I made a Reddit post this morning hoping to drive my expectation for 5 players up to 6. A sincere heartfelt thanks to the Reddit community for making this not only one of the most memorable days of my life - but leaving me totally speechless. As of writing this, my hope of 5 players has been far succeeded and there are over 100 people fracking the world. You have no idea what that means to me.

I have worked on this game for so long. I'm so proud of it. And I am so excited that so many people are playing it - even if it does kind of terrify me. Please please let me know if you stream the game, I will try to pop in. If you have any questions or feedback, don't hesitate to let me know. I want to listen to all feedback earnestly.

I want to quickly make some context before the next bit. I am a solo developer with a full time work schedule and this is my first big release. I say this so that the pacing of patches to improve the game - which I'm insanely proud of - is set with realistic expectations. That said I've loved the feedback I've heard so far from people playing the game today while I was at work. Great stuff and stuff I take to heart.

I will have a hotfix made available within a week addressing three points of early feedback: -an error with the volume setting not loading correctly when adjusting in prior sessions -a visual queue to sell oil to help make the system more intuitive (its the S key) -prevent the player from purchasing buildings when they don't have the funds (this was something I intentionally chose, but considering I've seen it several times in the early feedback, my intention was wrong and I will adjust it)

Thank you all for making this a day to remember, and frack away! Kyle
