An Open Letter to Tiny Speck

Dear TS Team:

In the 8 or 9 months that I have been playing Glitch, I've had a phenomenal amount of fun and met a staggering number of great people. There have been exciting periods of change and slower periods in between where the work was clearly happening behind the scenes. Many of the changes I've applauded. Plenty of others I've carped and whined about, although hopefully always constructively and politely. You can't please all of the people, all of the time as they say. So it goes. And all that time I've been a non-subscriber.

But I want to take a moment to say that in all of the games I've played, never have I encountered a dev staff that is so communicative, so responsive, so dedicated to not only asking for feedback, but to listening to it and acting upon it for the betterment of the game. This is not just a unique world you've created. It is also a unique, collaborative atmosphere where I can *feel* that my opinion matters - despite the fact that you've never received a dime from me. Shame on me.  

Well, as of 10 minutes ago, I am a subscriber.

And I want you to know that it is not simply because of the awe-inspiring world you have created or the wonderful people here. It is first and foremost because of the manner in which you have gone about creating this world with our input and the way in which you value and respect the opinions and ideas of the people who have joined it.  This is really a special place you have all created. Thank you for all of your hard work on what is so clearly a labor of love.

-K

  • For all the whining and complaining I do, you'd think I don't like the game. But that is not true. I like the game very much, and became a subscriber 3 weeks after starting. I'll be here forever. Glitch is that good.

  • I've been around several online games... but there comes a point in most where gameplay just isn't that much fun any more and you have 80 billion dollars or whatever and the ability to make infinately more. I like the fact that after almost a year of fairly regular play there is still more game and so much to do

  • I have said it before and I will say it again and I will keep saying it, as long as I have been playing computer games.."I have never played a game where the staff have been so involved with their players"... so helpful and so right in there amongst us all...and "always ready to play right along side us"..The staff of glitch are in a class of their own..and I think I can safely say..No other game has staff....... ( ALL staff ) like ours :D x

    This is why I just signed up for a subscription even though I've barely been here a month and have been happy as a clam playing without any of the extras. Because respect for others is rarer than it should be and deserves to be reciprocated.

    (And then I find out you've even gone and given new players a free month's trial subscription so I had to go buy some credits instead.)

  • Cool letter Koftun. I may get annoyed at some little things from time to time, but this is just the most awesome game. The only one I spend real life money now, so that tells how much I support it. :)
