Indie game devblog for TKLB, Dragon Audit, 8BitMMO and more
Today I upgraded our integration of Google Checkout to Google Wallet for Digital Goods. Checkout is being retired, and Wallet is replacing it.
The upshot of this is that you no longer have to worry about typing in /redeem whatever. The gold/plat is now deposited directly into your game account. If you wish to purchase gold/plat as a gift for another player, that is now also possible using this page.
I had a great last few days at PAX, where I got to show 8BitMMO to the attendees. I had a kiosk in the REACTOR booth, and many folks stopped by to learn about the game. I handed out my entire supply of 1,000 postcards and demoed the game a few hundred times.
Many people had already heard of the game, or even played it previously. A few fans stopped by too, and it was an awesome experience to meet them IRL.
It was also a great opportunity on the business side – I got to meet media outlets that had previously covered us online and ones who are interested in doing so in the future. Additionally, a number of industry folks stopped by, and we discussed some very exciting plans for the future. 😉
On Sunday I got to DJ for about twenty minutes for an impromptu dance party (DJ RobbyZ!)
It. Was. Awesome. 😀
We just got greenlit for a future Steam release! Woo! 😀
I just sent out the quarterly e-mail update newsletter. Here’s an update on everything I’ve been working on for the past four months.

Also, the keys & doors update is now live: There are now three different key/door pairs, and keys generated are unique to each city. You can give/trade players keys or have them autospawn. Use them to give only specific people in a city access to a building, or to make dungeons more interesting!
I have added one to the first dungeon, the Law Offices of LOL & LOL.
I will be demoing the game at PAX! If you’re going to the expo, be sure to swing by 🙂
We’re #3 on MMO Attack’s Top Ten Retro Themed MMO’s!
I’m getting ready for PAX and realized I needed to get some new shirts ordered. If anyone else would like to also get a shirt, now’s the time! I’m going to close out ordering on Monday at 3PM Pacific, so get your order in now if you want one 🙂

Next update will let you get keys that you can use on new special key doors. There will be three different key/door pairs, and keys will be unique to each city. You will be able to give/trade players keys or have them autospawn.
