I'm continually impressed and overjoyed by the phenomenal amount of work you put into this game. Thank you!
In the beginning, men were mortal.

Summary:
Prompted by the massive gang warfare update. I don't know how he does it.
Seconded (thought I'm totally lost, what with this new load of quality goods while having only a cursory explanation :P).
Sometimes, with my constant nagging about the game, I feel like I come off as unappreciative. It should be said that this is not the case at all. I'm a nagger by nature, and I also just want to help improve the game, if I can. It's also kind of a thrill to be able to make a suggestion and see it implemented within the day, to be honest >_>
If I didn't like this game, I would have stopped a while ago. Currently, Kinak is getting nothing from this, and paying for the hosting himself. Hopefully that will change with the new donation stuff being put forth.
That he even has the ability to do this is fantastic. I make a tiny javascript thingy here and there, and it takes me days to do it without any formatting.
Just top-notch stuff all around.

Thanks guys :)
And don't worry about the nagging, I understand. But thanks for mentioning it.
The new content was a ton of fun writing, particularly the sidequest (which just kind of grabbed me and pulled me along for the ride) and some of the hints of history that shine through. And the crafting stuff, but I'm a big softy for crafting.
As luck had it, I probably wouldn't have gotten it done for another week or so, but I turned my ankle really badly and can't walk on it. So extra time coding!
Funny thing about that: I was helping some friends put in a fence. Spend over an hour dropping a giant steel bar into the ground and attacking things with a pickax (they have serious concrete issues). Then finish up and twist my ankle while we're going for ice cream.
Cheers!

You should learn to stop getting those 40-scoop ice cream cones, Kinak, they can be pretty dangerous if you drop them.
And yes, I really like the anxiety medication description. I'm picturing me stumbling around looking dazed and smiling until some Southside resident lets me sleep in their cellar.
In the beginning, men were mortal.
New content looks really interesting, now I only have to find a gang to join:)
Glad everyone's enjoying the update. I've actually got at least one more gang trick up my sleeve which'll hopefully cut down on some of the spamminess. We shall see :)
Cheers!
Kinak
P.S.: I knew I should have stopped at 39 scoops. That last one always gets me.
Wanted to add lots of appreciation too.
Having reset a few times now (more, once I get my custom weapon smuggled in), I have learned to really love the fighting system. First time I used melee and ranged and then melee again, nothing fancy. 2nd time through, I wanted to make the petrol splash-fire deck, so I had a fire-ranged deck. Then came the 15 card minimum before I made the petrol-fire deck, so I reset again and due to the techniques I learned I ended up going with a ranged-stealth deck. The choices you get the make and the versatility of the fighting system are f-ing awesome!
Also, the hidden extra bonus(es???) effect on the donation item, nice touch. :)
Well there's even an unfound quest branch and whole quest that nobody found so far, so congrats on that too:)

Glad you like it. I think it's one of the game's strongest points. And we're still barely scratching the surface :)

Yeah, it does all sorts of neat stuff. Zack's not crazy for collecting them :)

Actually there are a lot of quest branches, or at least skills, that nobody's found. Almost ten, if I remember correctly. And I'm pretty sure that Vholes is going to either kill me or think I'm the coolest person ever when he figures out the other half of Mercy Killer.
I'm not sure what this says about me as a designer, but I kind of like having a pile of things around that nobody's figured out. It makes the world feel way more real to me having more mysteries.
Cheers!
