Not sure there is any shred of evidence to support this not being a scam now, but out of interest, has anyone withdrawn since the supposed new owners and actually got their crypto?

What about allowing players to change their class for a price (dependent on their level - or perhaps, only once a certain level is achieved)?

The only issue I can see for that is that the Warrior class have a clear advantage in the Battle Towers; however I don't believe the rewards of winning in the BT are sufficient to make people want to abuse it for that purpose.

You're welcome my friend! 

well, this was unexpected!!

Welcome back. 

Yay!  Glad it all worked.  Hope GP recovers so your free GP are worth more! 

(PS - glad to see another HYPER supporter too  )

Would that be DKV by any chance? 

Hey only 2 more downloads of my game - http://gamejolt.com/games/captain-disaster-in-the-dark-side-of-the-moon/16772 - and I'll be doing a GP giveaway via the Snake game. 

Just 2 more downloads of my game before the giveaway goes live, folks.  Just 2.  TWO.

Well it's probability not absolutes.  Sometimes I do 1000 turns and don't find myself Waldo, and sometimes I find myself Waldo twice in a row.

Or as Han Solo would say... "Never tell me the odds."

Just a little bit of news - HYPER-sponsored retro point and click adventure game "Troll Song" won the "Best Demo" awards at last night's (much delayed!) AGS Awards 2015.  It's actually the second time Troll Song has won this award - the original very small tech demo won in 2013.  development on the full game is stalled for various reasons but I'm never going to give up on it, one day it will come out!  I am rethinking the idea of making the whole thing an episodic release though.

Up to 588 downloads now, only 12 more before the giveaway starts!

Folks I think it might be time to start coming up with a contingency plan if (and I'm only saying if, not saying I think this is the case or even is likely, but it's a possibility) HyperFuture isn't able to come back for some reason.

I know there's a team of sorts already which is great, but I wonder if anyone else has Commit access on the GitHub?  Does anyone else have access to update the official website?

If not... how important actually is that?  From what I've seen there are coins the dev has given up on that have continued to thrive despite the lack of any genuine software updates, because the community has continued to support it.  That's more what I see happening with HYPER but it would be good to know exactly what the situation is.

For the record - I do think HF will come back, and I certainly hope he will.  However from my involvement with indie games over the past few years (although I realise there are differences to the crypto world - there are similarities), I've seen many projects that look fantastic crash and burn because the dev team break up, or because the marketing wasn't up to the quality of the game itself.  Or simply because it was the wrong game released at the wrong time.

I think there's a pretty solid infrastructure built around HYPER now with the game servers, DVK and Snake, and what appears to be reasonably consistent trading volume.  Others will be able to look at the situation a lot more objectively than I can; I'm no expert on any level regarding crypto, and only got into it at all because HYPER sponsored one of the games that I'm developing - but I think the skill set owned by the members here that I can see are invested in keeping HYPER running are enough to take things forward.  We can't always fall back on "going nowhere" when HF isn't around - real-life issues can easily get in the way, any dev knows that, any realistic person knows that.

Sorry about this whole stream of consciousness thing, I just wanted to get it off my chest and see what others thought.

Still waiting for the insane difficulty version with both horizontal and vertical moving obstacles?!?   

Thanks for the news!

Gotta love those funky sell orders - starting at 0.00006498 and going all the way up to virtually 1BTC per XCO!! 

Cool, thanks for the update 

Top 5 of All Time only?  Or monthly / weekly as well?

I like the new changes.  In particular, it's surprised me just how much adding a simple tileset has made the game world feel more real.  I didn't notice when the "pay a small fee to collect everything from all your villages" option was implemented, but pretty happy about it as this is something I have wanted the game to have for about a year now

It took guts for you to come back and say that, would have been easy for you to disappear completely once the site was sold - so respect for that.

Works fine on Chrome for me - I think you may be experiencing an issue with the Unity Web Player plugin perhaps? 

I did a quick search and found this, don't know it it will be helpful:

- Go to chrome://plugins/
- Look for unity player
- Click on Enable
- Reload the page
