Let's send stoot and all the devs some love.

The man is clearly working too hard, to judge from this particular comment in a different forum thread:

And for the record, as someone who has put his life into this for the last two years, the overarching emotion I get when I show someone Glitch for the first time is a deep shame (for all the things we have not yet done or all the things we have so far done poorly). But, however long it takes, the game will suck much less in the future (we will be actively developing it many years after beta is over).Posted 16 hr ago by stoot barfield [staff] | Permalink


So I opened a thread to basically tell the devs how rocking we think this game is, even though we know there are improvements being made and things we want that we don't have yet. I made my reply over in that thread so will keep this very brief: THIS. GAME. KICKS. BUTT. Thank you.

  • Dear Tiny Speck Staff,

         I absolutely love what you guys are doing! Glitch is brilliant because you are not only offering us a fine product, but also a living, breathing work of art! I understand that most artists aren't usually satisfied with their work, but after putting in a good day's test session of Glitch, I feel like I've had an absolute blast! You guys work on this game, and we loyal fans love what you've done with the place. Keep working hard; just don't work too hard. Everyone deserves a break now and then, especially after such a job well done. May Glitch be a very successful game in the future because players like myself are here to be a part of it, every step of the way.

         Ever Grateful,
         Vexia (But I think I speak for a large chunk of the community ;D )

  • Come on Stoot, how long have you been in the software industry?  All of us who work in this industry know that the timescales are never realistic, as engineers we all think we can do more than we can in less time than it actually takes to do it.

    Congrats to the entire team for getting this far.  I have no doubt that there is much more that will happen in the coming months and years on Glitch.  I'm excited about the possibilities. I'm an engineer, a developer, and I love the challenges and rewards we get from seeing something we wrote 'out in the wild'.  You're trying to do something new, and despite the occasional person who's not going to like it, the number who love it speaks for itself.

    Lets be honest, if there weren't people out there that didn't hate it, you'd be doing something wrong!  Well done to the entire team, and we all look forward to the next chapters of Glitch!

  • I'm only ashamed of how much I drop every real life thing going on around me to read up on and, WOOT, play the surprise short tests that pop up.
    All you wunnerful people can bask away in our joint outpourings of praise and adoration.
    You all truly deserve it.

  • This game is TOO good!  I'm sure i'm going to have to stop playing after it goes live, otherwise I'll ending up living a virtual glitch life instead of my real life.  Keep your head up Stoot!  You and the devs have created something truly wonderful here. ;)

  • Awesome and Amazing!!! As a FSR (I hope ya'll aren't tiring of us yet) I was astounded and amazed when during my very first test a dev actually teleported to me and helped me within seconds of my asking for help in the help channel. This game itself is astounding and amazing but to have a dev team that cares and helps and actually plays the game along side us is an experience in itself!!! I go to bed dreaming of this game and wake thinking of it..........I'm here for the long haul, and Stoot, thank you soooooooooooo very much for giving us FSR's a new and better home!!!!!! (yes, I did say better, didn't I?) Devs, all of you totally ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This is the game I've been dreaming of for years and years. Please just keep doing what you're doing, Tiny Speck - I've totally fallen for Glitch.   <3

  • The game is already way better than anything I have played before - some even after a year and more in beta were much less advanced than this.  The fact that the devs have kept it under wraps and got it to this stage before going to beta speaks volumes about their commitment to having a very high quality gaming experience.

    Devs, stand in a circle and give each other a pat on the back, you are all awesome :)

  • Thank You soooo much you wonderful Tiny Specks!  I love this game!
     I was so inspired I bought some real chickens for my back yard.
    My husband thinks I have gone bonkers. He may be right
     ......I did do that Google search on where I can buy a pet pig :)

  • I willingly and eagerly paid money for this game, which isn't out yet. I tap my fingertips together anxiously waiting for a bleep from Twitter announcing when it'll be open again. I've mapped out learning progressions at 4 in the morning. Finally, I've developed a strange rash. But I don't know if that's connected. I just thought I should tell someone.

    As unfinished as it might be, we're really enjoying being in the game, and you've captured our interest and support. I hope everyone on the dev team gets to their own personal point where they're satisfied and not ashamed, but even now, it's a whole lot of fun. Thanks for continuing to work at it, we're very proud to be the beta testers for an already fantastic game.

  • I never thought I would love a game as I loved F.S but I got to say I love this more, there is so much more to do, I get so excited at all the jobs to be done, I am like a kid at Christmas I cant get enough of the game. So much thought has gone into the game to make it the best that I cant thank the team enough, and like Wes O`Matic I am doing the same at 4 in the morning
    I creep downstairs so my hubby don`t wake just to see if the game is back on, he would think I was mad as he got no interest with games or computers THANK GOD I can have it all to myself. I love we are able to give gifts and currants to help others,  it is so peaceful to play this game so much better than in F.S. So thank you for this fantastic and wonderful game.

  • How to tell you, dear Stoot (and dear devs) how this game has come to mean so much to so many so fast?  Vexia says it well, when she says it is a living, breathing work of art (I think of that each time I am in the game or just even on the outskirts of it waiting in wardrobe), but that doesn't begin to encompass it.  The delightfully quirky sense of humor, the feeling of community and camaraderie, the myriad of challenges and quests, the sense of accomplishment, and even the fun of the craziness in wardrobe choices - all of it parts and parcel of what make up such an amazing world!  I can only say thank you, thank you, thank you for all your shared brilliance, inspiration and hard, hard work!!!  *sings* What a wonderful... worrrlllld - ooohhhh, yeaah!!

  • Stoot and Glitch devs, you guys are awesome, simply awesome, and I love all of you.

    I just started playing the game in the last test, and I'm already having withdrawal systems with the fact that it's offline!

    Godspeed, devteam! You guys rock.

  • Thanks for making and developing a game that is able to be played as peacefully as I want to, that entertains my FS friends and keeps us together, that draws the many interesting people together who welcomed us so kindly, and for your careful planning.  I am excited to see what comes along!  (Will we ever be able to breed our stock?  I loved that about FS!)
    Congratulations to the artists and developers and staff!

  • Just to say I've been in a handful of alphas/betas of different levels of success. I know that as the tester group gets bigger, it will get harder and harder to handle the masses. But so far Stoot & The Gang have been extremely excellent in how they have handled it all. The process has been pretty much warm fuzzies on my end.

  • Ty stoot! trust me proceed forward is all you can do and will get a good result in this game. I have explored many games and I haven't been involved in any games and waiting to be a part of this game since a previous game that I had been in and was crushed. So of the thousands of browser-based games, there is nothing that kicks butt and makes me an anticipating spaz like a kid on a sugar high going to DisneyWorld..are we there yet?? lol waiting on next test. become insomniac worse but enjoy the insomnia and addiction that keeps me playing and enjoying this game. so ty for your work and my thanks to the whole glitch staff. This game is destined for great things..DarqueGoddess

  • Thank you stoot and devs for creating Ur, where our inner glitches can hang around, and knowing what we exactly wanted!

  • I've wanted to post here for a few days now, but felt it was inappropriate since I haven't really joined a test yet.

    But now that I have..

    Good work and thanks for giving us something wonderfully different.  I've been on for almost the whole duration of the last test, and I regret needing sleep.  The game had so much to offer that for a time there, I was just roaming street by street just to see what surprises awaited me.

    Keep it up you wonderful people!
