Well, that is really great! Its really nice to see the game hit gamespot. Im looking forward to playing colonies. I read the article, and they talk about alot of the games features mainly. I am looking forward to more of the game and the background story. I wouldnt be suprised if gamespot (they usually do) follow up on the game. If you had a story you could present i would read it.

PS. I like the welcome username

You also noticed heh ;)

Before gamespot we were in 2 magazines (PC Gamer UK, and PC Zone)... wich is pretty cool.
I didn't even know gamespot until I noticed the url under the referring links on our server log. It got us quit a few visitors, so I guess its a big site.

Anyway, I realize that exposure isn't everything.. we need to get this game done, it might take long, but I guess we're all stuborn ;)

Great to see there's some interest in our project in this community, thanks!

Oh, and Andrew, the background story is available on the site:www.acidstorm.net/coloniesstory.html
