Hey friends,

I pulled the beta early last night because we got enough data from what users were writing.  We basically needed numbers from various machines and browsers.  If you want to read more feel free here.

First off sorry if you missed it and sorry it was an hour late.  We wanted to get it off and on as fast as possible just to get some numbers and didn’t want to turn it into a spectacle.  We have a lot of effort put into this game and we want to make it a spectacular release without the beta sideshow.  I hope that makes sense.

We pulled in that framerates sucked hard.  We fixed a bunch of things, ran optimization all day yesterday and managed to get rates upwards of 25-30 fps which is phenomenal.  The thing is that all computers run differently and we definitely never knew the game was as slow as some were mentioning (5 fps? seriously?).  But we’re riding on positive waves now.

I’ll give you updates soon.  Working REAL hard to get this done, it’s like my life’s work!
