Hey everyone, I'm just curious how you all came across SU. Have you been lurking and following since the Dragon Heart days? (Yikes!) Or maybe some other gamemaking community? (Most likely RMN, hehe.)

Let's share!

RMN. And I couldn't believe I'd missed that gem.

The first thing that caught my attention was the art. From my personal experience, lots of cool RPGs I've played had artwork, so I was sure it'd be a great game. Oh and the second thing was "Andoru". I mean, who could resist. XD

Man what a design mistake that was... haha. And it's one that'll haunt me forever.

I still remember the folder entitled "DHCH2" on my old laptop.

I think I found CH2 on Gamingworld. (back when they actually had a legitimate site)

Looks like I'm the only SU noob. :D I really wish I could have seen the early releases. Are they still available for download?

Downloaded. So far, it has nothing to do with the SU as I know it but playing it is hella fun. It's like looking at someone's baby photos or something. :D Makes me go 'Aaaaaaaaaaw' and stuff. XD

I remember; it was a while after GW fell, and I was looking around trying to find a new RM site. I ended up on RRR, and the front page news item was announcing the release of SU4. At first it looked a little, I guess, over-the-top, and I was wary since I didn't remember seeing it on GW, but eventually I decided to give it a try. The rest is history.

Yeah, I can imagine people being a bit doubtful, but I think once people realize I'm pretty gung-ho about this project there are certain things that can be appreciated. No one likes someone who can't stick to a project for longer than a few months. :]

(My game was on the front page of RRR?)

I remember RRR being offline for a while. I never knew it was back online. Andrew, you have SU scattered all over the internet. It's probably being torrented as well.

I found Dragon Heart 2K WAY back in GW. I still have the game saved onto my computer. :) Looking back on it reminds me how much SU has dramatically improved.

Oh man... that was really old! part of me misses the version where you get to Floatland. I actually found that version recently too. (Demo 2 I believe). I should upload it!

An old, bad, and cliche continent in my second demo. It was renamed to C'Est Ballus, and again to Yuira (and it doesn't float).
