Would be nice if one could trade Currants for some real currency as to justify all the time online. Then even more people would join & stay online longer to earn more money!!!
you could get a job as a game tester.. then you'll get paid to spend hours and hours running into rocks over and over to check collision detection in "my little pony 7, revenge of the pigtails"
Well the real reason this is stupid is it's the reverse of what tinyspeck wants.
Glitch, when it opens to the public, is probably going to be like farmville or some of these other new games where you buy things with real world money to get stuff in game, booster packs, in game content, etc.
The devs have said they don't want paying players to be able to gain significant advantage over non-paying players. So... I don't think it'll be like farmville's system.
