this was my first game I ever preordered. Don't make me break my rule again Harebrained Schemes. Also the wait for a release date after preordering killed me. Which helps me to do that never again.

Keys have been released in a new update. You can claim them by going to your backerkit account and following the directions specific to the platform you chose during the Kickstarter.

The game goes live in 5 days! :0

So, the HK soundtrack was put on Backerkit either today or yesterday. It's worth a listen, for sure, but I recommend sampling the tracks so as not to spoil them too much.

Also, if anyone wants a copy of the album signed by Jon Everist, the composer, you can follow this link:

Edit: Four days... *wind howls*

Mitche Gitleman and Mike McCain will be interviewed LIVE on the Fragments of Silicon podcast at 6PM PDT / 9PM EDT / 1AM GMT - intel here:

NOTE: The link in the body of text is to the page you can listen to the podcast LIVE. If you miss the LIVE podcast, the link above has a web-player you can use to listen to their recorded shows. Their podcast is also available on iTunes.

Only two days until Hong Kong's release, so it might be an interesting interview. Maybe we'll get answers to the whole "Whistleblower debacle." For those who don't know, Whistleblower is the last track on the Hong Kong soundtrack, and it's basically every other song mashed together. Why this was done is a source of debate on the Kickstarter page at the moment. The leading theory (and mine) is that this is the final boss music and has been masked to prevent spoilers. HBS hasn't commented on it.

Edit: If I hear anything interesting I'll put it here.

Edit2: They upgraded all the animations without telling anyone, apparently. Gobbet and Is0bel know one another at the start of the game and have gone on runs before. Took a long break to hang with roomies; burgers were hella undercooked so hopefully there's such a thing as a medium-rare / rare burger. Sooo...I missed the interview, basically. Sorry! >.>;;

The game officially launches at 10 AM PST, which translates to 1 PM EST. So, no midnight release, unfortunately.

I'm going to sleep. -_-

I feel yall's pain, have to go knock out this work shift before I can start playing. ^.^

Also, new trailer is out. Rock Paper Shotgun has a pretty lukewarm review, but that doesn't surprise me since they've been lukewarm throughout the series. The digital wallpaper has been distributed through backerkit and it's pretty sick, check it out!
