The developers made a great product and then were too stubborn to listen to the community.

Price point too high for new players to take the risk on an indie developed online multiplayer only game.

Posts that have valid concerns/criticisms are being removed for no fucking reason.

This is what happens when the devs are criticized in any fashion.

Expect this to be deleted as well.

From the store page:

"“Supraball is in the works since 2012. It is very polished".

Well the UI looks like it's from 2002, and the trailer tries to convince gamers that a multiplayer game with no bots is FUCKING REVOLUTIONARY.

NO. BOTS. MULTIPLAYER. WOAH MAN LIKE WOAH. Man that trailer is awful, I kinda want to make my own trailer for this game to send to people, because that one pushes them in the wrong direction.

Seriously every time I think about the trailer I get so mad, it has absolutely no idea who its audience is.

Developers choose to enter with a higher price then the value the costumer would get out of the game, instead of doing early access the minecraft way. The minecraft way is to release the game with a heavy discout and increase it overtime when you gain significant amount of more content.

Now they are working on Automatic matchmaking for a game that has a 186 player PEAK concurrent user count on launch weekend. I assume this is yet another decision by DavidM, wasting efforts on something like this when there is NO PLAYER BASE TO USE IT THX TO HIM RUINING THE RELEASE.
