That's really cool!

@Natog Thank you for tip :) we will do that :) for about a week :) holidays makes that press wasn't writting. Check out our thunderclap https://www.thunderclap.it/projects/7679-the-mims-beginning-needs-you?locale=en it's just click for support us :)

Just to advise- give this to some of the youtubers. What you need in development is hype, and you can get that by making sure a pretty damn polished version is sent to some bigger youtubers that could evaluate the game, it'd fix certain people's worries about the game! Really looking forward to playing the game, want to see it launch really nicely! Keep up the good work ;)

We are going to share polished demo , or beta demo , we don't want to realese full beta game :) but demo with 2-3 levels :)

no problem, anyway thanks that you explained everybody what beta is

Ah, sorry. Well, hopefully Costar elaborates then since he knows what he meant the best.

Ok we are open to your questions:)

@Hydronium thanks :) but I know what the "beta" is :) but thanks maybe other persons benefit ;D but @CostarGamerZ write "by the way you can work on a beta or alpha for now and finishing later " I don't understand context . Sorry I poorly expressed before :)

Take a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle for a better description.

Usually game development is in phases (stages). So first stage is "alpha", or phase/stage = 1. This is where the game is barely finished and can be played, but isn't very useful and big changes happen. Second stage is sometimes "beta", phase = 2, where the game is almsot ready but now you start making it a little cleaner and make small changes. Then you release it when the Beta is done.

Note: This is just one way of doing it. THere are lots of different ways like continuous development even through "release", etc.

We have 40 members of group now ;) Thank you all for join us

what do you mean by "work on a beta " ?

We encourage everybody to tell friends about Mims and creating Here a discussions ;)

Yes ;) but only in adventure mean , fore example plants that you fed to grow them up to get something ;) it is only example ;) (Mims have to throw fruits to plant's mouth ( it's only our plan for now )

@Hydronium We are going to put some events while other Mims crashed on our island and we have to help them , but mainly we rule over the Mims , and care of them. Sometimes we have to rule over few colonies which are separated by abyss, and conect them at the end of mission by bridges , psi power , or enormously plants that we have to fed ;) There will be adventures a little bit like in "Trine" maybe ;)

@CostarGamerZ
no problem ;) If you would to invite your friends , do this :)
Idea is good and very interesting but this is something that we can't put it into the game sorry it will prolong the game making process to much. The game have story about tribe Mims , and they are main characters :) like Settlers :) but we can teach them special skills :) We also can use magic (Psi power) to create Mims protector. The game has got also random events , which you can predict on time-line. For example, fruit rains , meteor strikes, earthquakes , So if you have ideas what events we can create (disaster,miracle, or other event like dragons attack :) ) Tell us :D I encourage you to read new gameplay describe ;D here http://v1.steam.hlxgame.cc/sharedfiles/filedetails/updates/136239549/1366196716 and than you can give us a lot of ideas I think ;) There is a lot of dangers, missions ,skills etc to think about ;)
Thanks for engagement :D

That's an interesting point Costar brought up. Are *our* Mims the *only* Mims, or can we encounter other groups of Mims (ruled by an AI of some sort)?

We are really open to your ideas , We would to put community ideas into the game
