The megacollab Chase is a part of is called Rautasieni. I just have no words for that.

Nice cast, ★CakeySan☆!

Have you forgotten that your custom title is "Annoying Grammar Elitist"?

Also I forgot to say this the first time but I really do not know half of the users that made progress today.

    As a mobile iOS user I can say for certain that RobTop releasing GD on Steam first instead of waiting was the best option. Of the 3 companies that he has to rely on for his game, Apple is always the bad one. I am a Apple fan but they do suck at some (most) things and this is one of them. It can take Apple up to 3 weeks to verify a game. Do you think that the very outspoken and most important part of GD, the PC players, would be happy if the game got delayed 3 entire weeks because of the mobile versions. Who if you haven’t noticed yet have been proven to be a minority now, not by numbers but because of suppression.

    RobTop dosen’t give 2 shits about mobile players, he just supports it still becuase it’s two more areas of income. I’m sure if RobTop didn’t care for money at all and just cared for creating an amazing game he would trash mobile all together. Why do you think RobTop declined the offer to create a console version of the game? It’s because it would be another massive system to support, and steal much of his time.

    The reason updates take so long is because one man RobTop has to create the same exact thing for Steam, Android, and iOS. Even if he dose try and use compatible code he will inevitably have to remake a lot of it. Plus bugs can arise based on the specific systems not because of the game as a whole, that is a whole ‘nother problem. I imagine if RobTop made an update and ignored everything but Steam the update would be out in less than a 1/3 of the time than currently. We would likely be at 2.5 already. RobTop supporting mobile still is like society supporting religion, sure it is cool and helps many people but it massivly slows down productivity.

    As a little side note ive been working on something enormous to release soon on the forums. Something ive been thinking of for a year. I may take a few weeks to get up tho, we will see. Stay tuned I may release some info about it in the coming days if I feel the need to.
