Awesome, thanks Jorlen! I have posted your guide here:

https://sites.google.com/site/3079game/game-guide

I only tweaked the Jetpack names to antigrav packs, as they are described in the game.

This makes a great addition to my site -- I'm sure many will find it very useful!

Right on, glad to be of assistance!  The offer is still on the table should you ever want music, by the way

Geez, I've got so much going on with 3079, I still haven't given much thought to music yet. I'm working on the graphics now that I have an artist or two helping me out, and now we want to get some fortress building features added Music is still on the table, but I'm not sure when I'll get to it -- but I'll keep you in mind when I do! I'm very glad you were of great assistance too

Trying the demo, but the keys aren't remappable? Is that the case in the full version too? I keep pressing the wrong keys because you defaulted stuff to standard fps keys and what I normally use is a bit different.

Edit: Nevermind. Apparently I followed this guy too far while trying to figure out which guys were hostile and which weren't (I can't tell the difference, they all look like flying lego people with guns), and the demo ended on me after about 5 minutes.

the demo ended after 5 minutes?!? Mine kept going for quite some time.

Also, the enemies have their heads coming out of their torso while friends look more traditional with heads atop their shoulders. Leaders (who give you quests) have a star on their chest, merchants have a $ emblem on their chest.

Yeah, I have the same problem (keys aren't exactly what I'm used to). Hopefully in the future a way to remap the controls will exist, but as of now (even in full) there is no way to do it.  No .ini file or anything either, unfortunately.

As for the demo, you can always restart it and I do believe it only ends after you level up past a certain point, or run too far away from your point of origin.  I think for what it is (to determine if the full game is worth it for you) it's perfect.

If you head straight off in one direction, the demo will end sooner (since you will reach an "exploration" limit).

They currently are not... but that will change. I'll plan on getting remappable keys in the next release, since this is a highly requested feature

So I caved in and made the purchase, however BMT Micro says it could take a couple of days,  but I want to know if that is normal for the rest of you who bought.

I see all the sales come in and go... I don't see your pending (yet), but when they do get listed as pending, sometimes they process in ~15 minutes. However, I've seen a few that took 6-8 hours. I've never seen any take a couple of days, or even a whole day.

Weird, cause my roommate dropped money on it yesterday, and he got the confirmation email from BMT, I will have to double check the email when he gets back, maybe the thing got sent to him instead.
-edit-
okay we got this figured out now.

Glad you got it figured out, and hope it didn't take too long!

Looking forward to it You should Tweet (and/or post the server info here) so anybody can try and connect -- should test out the multiplayer code a bit more

Next version hopefully today, but could still be sometime this weekend. Key configurations and a few graphical improvements for the next release.

Keep an eye out @ http://gamingirresponsibly.com/category/sub-sections/interviews -- I did an interview with Gaming Irresponsibly that should be up this Saturday morning!

In case anyone here has missed it......today is the last day to enter the free contest for a copy of 3079. http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=98443.0

Posting in these threads helps index 3079 with search engines so that people can find their way to the game instead of it being at the bottom of the page when googled.

I was looking at that guide. So once you level up some of your items stop working? What is the logic behind that exactly?

I kind of wanted to keep the player count on our server low. Else my dad will get mad at me "takin all the bandwidth and letting hackers into our network to steal our visual basic gui interface for the bank and trade drugs with our hifi"
