FIRST OFF:
PROTOCARD FOLKS. PLEASE PAY ME OR SOMETHING IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY.
I will hold your entitled copy, but if you leave me hanging for like 2-3 weeks, someone else is getting it and you can wait.
EVERYONE ELSE:
Pay attention Friday. That's when I will give you information on the orders.
Everyone will e-mail me with the provided button thing on aetherbyte.com, and it will be first come, first served. I will send PayPal invoices to the first lucky bitches.
I have like 40 available, split about evenly between regions. They are almost all going to you guys, with a small bit going to other key supporters who don't post here but have been equally supportive of Aetherbyte since day 1.
If you miss the first go around, you will be first in line for the next batch that is in the works.
So, don't panic. Bare with us. Also, the shipping will be Priority, but may take a bit longer, because I am doing all of the packing/shipping myself after work. This includes making the badass trinkets, and all of that.
Those who miss the first go around have the option to buy the ROM for 10$, and then you will only owe me 50$ + shipping when your turn in line comes for the card.
Said ROM will have some personal information wedged in it somewhere, so if you go uploading it to ROM sites, you'll be easily spotted by everyone, and they will hate you forever. Don't be a RoyVegas and ruin life for everyone.
Speaking of RoyVegas:
Don't even bother. You're not allowed to have Atlantean.
and last, but not least:
Remember, these are the first of their kind. They're 3D printed. They are not factory precision!
As such, there are slight oddities with the cases and cards.
Mainly:
-you may see some stray adhesive bits.
-The case trays are slightly larger than normal, so the back insert didn't quite clear the spine (should be addressed hopefully in the next batch, meaning we can figure out who has first prints! YEAH)
-The labels on the cards may not be 100% lined up. They're applied by hand. We're not machine perfect. We're basically fidgety programmers running on caffeine.
These things will improve over time so future projects will be even better than this one.
OH. AND FINALLY:
I'm not all about the whole "second printing!!12" Super Watermelon Factory bullshit.
The second batch will have lighter blue than the first print.
This was basically because I said "hey look at this shade of blue that wasn't available before!" when I went to buy more plastic filament.
This does not mean the different colors of blue, or different cuts of the manual, or any of that have any bearing on the actual value of the game package because of different print runs.
Anyone who thinks otherwise, stop being dumb.
Each and every copy is worth exactly 4902230235832598$.
The only thing of any collectible spastic value is the almighty trinket I hand made with a Christmas present I got in like 1995:
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/7/6093/6329465504_8aa564238a_z.jpg)
It's the best of the 1990s. New HuCard. New Pogs.
I am making those things by hand. The adhesive on the blank Pogs is completely shot. I have to reapply adhesive (but this means I can make them double sided instead of having the goofy yellow backs!).
They weren't kidding when they said use that shit in a well ventilated room.
They're hand made. They're not totally perfect. However, they're awesome.
Oh, man, excitement!
*pees/faints/wakes/pees/faints again/wakes/pees for 45 min. straight*
I read through most of this, but some of the most of it slipped my mind. Something about Friday, availability. If it's around, I'll send something for you, interesting to see a new hucard game, that does not involve cannibalizing something. If I miss it, I'll take the watermelon not-so-blue hucard. Whatever is easiest for me.
I used to huff adhesive in the 90's so this is totally bringing me back....
Can't wait...

Can you give us an idea what time on Friday they will go on sale? I only ask because I live in Europe and Friday for me comes 6 hours before the east coast.
Me want.
Woot! I can't wait to buy one and be the coolest kid in my town.
I will also need to pull out my old slammer and Alf pogs.

So probably Saturday for you.
Yes, been waiting for this!
aww yeah.

Very cool!
Sucks my phone broke and now I only can check the internetz when I am on my computer. Hopefully I get into the top 200 at least :P
Out of curiosity, how many copies of your CD games did you sell? Do you think you will eventually be able to create that many Atlanteans, assuming there is the same demand?
Can't wait! :)
Will you be making the ROM available ahead of time to those who already paid? Wouldn't mind putting some time into the game this weekend since I'll have nothing better I'll want to do.
Cool Daddy-o!

Between the broken/freebie demo/lost in mail replacement Insanitys, we've probably sold around 300.
Pyramid Plunder, somewhere less than that, but getting close? The sales taper off and then you sell one every few months, basically. If that
We can do that with the cards, and probably more, since they sell better I am assuming.
as for the ROM, I am still planning how I want to do that. I will probably put your name/address/etc. in the ROM file so if the thing shows up online, everyone will know where to go to punch someone in the nuts.
tomorrow is only 10 hours away from me. That's right biatches I live in the future :).. not that its going to help this time around :)
I'm very excited about this!!!! =D>
August 9th 2014, the day the internet shut down due to too many orders, rush rush rush, gotta get Atlantean!!! :D
BTW, when we order, are you going to have us put down our PCEFX user names in the payment, to ensure it's us "goons"? :)

I'm against the idea until you finish selling all the physical products, but if you're gonna do this, better encrypt the data somehow obviously. Nobody, the leaker included, should be able to see it. If it happens, it should be reported to you with the ROM image link for you to download, decrypt and then reveal who it was, etc. Even so, afterwards you publish the jerk's name, address, and then what ? Damage is still done...

The first batch is already technically sold out, and there aren't even enough for this entire forum basically.
I don't want to hose you gimps.
having the ROM out there won't impact anything. The people who really care about this crap are who this item was made for, and they'd buy it even with free ROMs dangling in front of them.
The best method would to have some coded serial tied to the user, nothing that stands out and could be easily stripped out, hide it in the code itself.
Much easier to search for an address string than some random number
NightWolve, what you say would apply in any other community... here in PCE land, people give a damn. Hell, my team's game was ripped and pirated only a few months after its release and we still sold the thing out because the people in this scene are so supportive. Having a ROM image out in the open isn't going to change anything; the people in this scene will still support Aetherbyte because they give a damn about homebrew and the people who make it. Can't say the same about other communities... this is one of the many things that makes this community so special.

Well, you had the disadvantage of the CD format with Mysterious Song, so guaranteed pirating by ANY customer as soon as it arrived. In this case, it takes a customer with a HuCard reader/dumper. When it comes to SNES and Genesis, I've seen those things for sale, but, I've never seen one for NEC products... They exist obviously, but I think pretty damn rare and certainly rare relative to SNES/Genesis. Point is, you have a temporary anti-piracy situation with a HuCard and if it was me, I'd take full advantage of it. Yeah, it could get dumped eventually, but odds are much in favor that it'd take a lot longer than a new fan SNES or Genesis cart.
I know peeps here are very generous and supportive, but yeah, all it takes is one guy... At the same time, we still get sharks, backstabbers, reselling profiteers, etc. floating around here all the same (
e.g. the guy that took Bonknuts' Megaman work and made a CD out of it without any permission), so it's not a 100% thing.
Anyway, from what Arkhan says, he will be sold out of the physical versions by the time it's all said and done based on the demand he's gauging and what they're going to produce, so I guess it's kinda moot. Still, I would've just gotten the full production run out of the way, sold it all off, and then did some digital option, etc.
Well, my point was that it doesn't matter... people are still going to buy. That's also what Arkhan was saying. One guy dumps it, ten guys dump it... it matters not... the people here will still buy it and support Aetherbyte because they care. The Megaman piracy thing was an interesting case, but one might also argue that Tom was never going to sell it anyway, considering he was working with a copyrighted and trademarked game, still protected IP... the idiot who decided to sell it just stuck his own neck out there, looking for an axe. Anyway, Arkhan is still going to get the full production run anyway because of how this community operates. I totally get where you're coming from though. Had this been anywhere else, I'd totally agree.
If someone takes Atlantean and tries to bootleg it, good luck. lol.
It would involve someone else making HuCards, we all know what they're SUPPOSED to look like. They won't come with a POG, and, we can be all lawsuit happy because THIS IS AMERICA AND ITS HOW WE DO.

null just mad hes got extra chromosomes
its ok you can be my wing man anytime
I may have missed this run, but I sent an e-mail anyway, since that will at least help Arkhan gauge how much interest there is, for when he goes to create the second printing. I'll get in on that, then, if I miss this first offer.

I read that part, but I'm curious if Arkhan will send a boiler-plate type e-mail to the others, so that way there aren't other posts here, "Did I make it", etc. So people aren't wondering, such as myself.

yeah once I sort this trainwreck out after eating and touching myself, I'm going to tell people who didn't make it, that they have to wait.

Yup all good, sign me up
Fuck, the pre-orders opened juste as I'm not home and I won't connect to paypal when not on my own computer. Any jp copies left ? I'll be back home tonight and will be able to place an order.
I will take a JP copy.
I've bought every single homebrew for the pce out there. As I said : I'm not home and won't connect to paypal from a computer I think is not reliable security-wise.
I think I've been around quite a while so that nobody can throw doubt on me.

You don't have to connect to Paypal to place an order - you have to email through the website. Arkhan will send you a Paypal invoice once he processes your email...
Quote from: Nulltard on 08/09/2014, 08:16 AMI hope you guys who are saying "I'll take one" in this thread have gone to the Aetherbyte site and used the order form/link. Ark is swamped (with orders and yaoi) as-is so it would probably be helpful if you'd go through official channels.
this is why i posted. i followed up with another email

Received an invoice today! Sweet Jesus! $89.29 CAD?! :shock: God bless our global economies! :lol:
Thank you sir!
Got my invoice this morning. Super stoked right now :)
Invoiced and paid. Thanks Arkhan!
Arkhan,
I seem to have missed out on the first batch, but from what I understand, you'll contact others when the next batch is around?
I haven't really bought any TG-16 stuff in a while, and missed your other 2 homebrew games; Insanity, and Pyramid Plunder. I'm interested in getting those 2 also.
I'm sending you an e-mail also, but that may get buried in the mess you have there. Check your PM.
.
you can order the other 2 on his website

We'll for now I switched to a jp copy, will grab us next time around, of course if people don't pay for their us copies then I'd grab that over the jp. Anyways invoiced and paid

I had that problem with Chrome, I switched to Firefox and it worked fine.
Thanks, it worked :)
Quote from: synbiosfan on 08/09/2014, 05:52 PMI had that problem with Chrome, I switched to Firefox and it worked fine.
What the hell happened to Chrome these days anyway ? It was purty great when it first came out, perfect concept, keep the software model compact and fast, but now it's turned into a bloated, slow piece of garbage, specifically on mobile devices (Android)...
I've wanted to break my tablet with how it slows down when I type and the new bugs with the latest version where a page disappears in certain instances... It's fine on Windows PC, to be honest, but on Android UC Browser (http://www.ucweb.com/), the mini version, maintains the fast and compact model working like a charm! Problem is I like Chrome because of Syncing, logging in to your Gmail account and the maintaining of all website accounts/passwords, history, bookmarks between all your devices, PC, mobile, etc. That's really convenient to have seamless operation when switching between my PC and then using my tablet in my entertainment center... Still, it drives me crazy on my tablet.
Had a meeting at work and placed my order two hours after orders were being taken. :( Guess I'll have to wait until the second run.
holyballs. so many things.
of the thing variety.
Going through e-mails now. Thinking about stabbing self.
aw yeah.
Have you sent out all the invoices for the first round of orders?
Yeah. If you haven't gotten one, you'll have to wait for round two.
Some of you were like.. inches from getting one. -_-;
But don't worry, we will definitely keep everyone covered.
AND, once I get this crap sorted out, I'll have news this week about grabbing the ROM to play in the meantime.
Got my invoice. I've just paid. I'll just have to wait now.
Keep it up Arkhan :P

It's all good. All of us are eager to get a copy, even Nulltard. He just has his own special way of showing it.
I haven't seen Arkan's HuCard and how it "works".
With the model we use some friends and i, we just need less than half an hour, sticker included, to make one.

Yours does not take into account the actual fabrication time of the card.
Ours is fully 3D printed ourselves, and the ROM chip is SMT, and covered.
We went with transfer decals for the labels with the hope that they will last longer than stickers, and won't peel off over time.
But yes if you haven't gotten an invoice, you missed batch #1.
Some of you just barely missed it by a few orders. :-/
but don't worry, it's coming.
Thanks Paul and CrackTiger for listing the ordering info

hey mate,
im happy to wait, i know shipping international might be a bitch, so handle mine last if you like :).. or given i still want a US version put my jp one aside for me and when there is a US one ready for me, i can combine the shipping.. whatever works for you :) you have my first wad of cash, so once the next US batch is ready i can flick you some more cash :)
what I am more worried about is that some packages I sent came back to my house today.
Apparently, using the free USPS priority flat rate envelopes and boxes for non-flat-rate is not allowed.....?
...except, I've been doing this for the past 4 years.
and... some of the packages I shipped made it to their destination, and others were rejected.
So, it's an inconsistent ruling, at best?
fuck.
Yep, no hurry. I just really appreciate your efforts.
Mine made it through. Perfect timing too as tomorrow is my birthday. :D

I don't think anyone is close enough to warrant the drive. lol
I have to make more Pogs. I thought I had enough for the first wave of regulars, but it turns out I have 2. the other ones in the stack were blank ones.
Good thing making those is easy.
Mine arrived yesterday as well, but was held hostage at the P.O. until I signed for its release this morning. The card and case look great and the pog is a nice bonus. Did a great job guy! Just have to wait till this evening to start playing. Damn job always gets in the way of the better things in life. :roll: Arkhan's sig on the back of the manual is pretty funny too.
Big thanks to everyone who made this a reality and for opening the door to a new world of possibilities for PCE homebrew. You guys are awesome.

Yeah dude, I'm sorry. The labels I printed like, FORCED signature requirements. I don't know why it did that online. I didn't pick that option. They might be requiring it automatically now, in some retarded USPS maneuver.

Bah! Eat a sandwich on the way then whip out your cock and sign the damn form. At least you have your copy! :lol:
Arky, when you ship em' out, are you PM'ing or emailing them? Mine probably hasn't gone out yet, but I thought I'd check, just incase some tool decided my mailbox was a mystery grab bag, as I have a couple of neighbors I don't totally trust. :P
Yours hasnt gone out yet, so it's not been stolen (yet)
If paypal sends a email, thats how youll know. I don't really bother sending things unless someone asks about it lol
So I guess mine hasn't shipped yet ;)
I was wondering if the non-protocard-owner copies have been sent out yet and if you guys have figured out how/when the rom will be made available? :)
While all you gomers were waiting, I beat mine last night. Beat it like a rented mule. :mrgreen:
Still waiting for my copy to be shipped ;(
The ROM will be going to all you paying gimpgooners either tonight or tomorrow.
and the international-folks should be shipped by the end of the week. I'm done beating up the USPS workers
Ok, thanks for the update :wink:
Can I pay you for a ROM, while you're sending ROMs out to people?
Can't wait for this bad boy to arrive. :)

CHECK THE NEWS UPDATES ON FACEBOOK OR OUR BLOG, SUCKAFOOOOOO.
hnfgggyeah.
and Elder, yours is going out tomorrow. In the meantime, I will be sending you a ROM you can mess with while you wait for the USPS to fumble this stuff to you.
I felt dicey about the paper envelopes and went and bought those funny rubbery plastic ones for all the overseas ones instead.
and then I dropped them in the wet bushes (hah. wet bushes.) on the way out of my car, and they proved to be as sturdy as I'd hoped.
I think the most exciting part of getting these to you guys is for when you all realize there are different distributions of the POGS!
now you can all spaz out about that and demand the rest of the set.

NICE JOB POSTING AN UPSIDE DOWN POG PICTURE, GUY.
Damn, you got lucky with that Pog. Not the most super-rare but still a good one.
The damn Pog maker machine sometimes nudges it a little and you get off-center cuts.
Real pogs were like that too, so consider it fuckin AUTHENTIC.
I have so many crooked pogs from back in the day.
lol.
Quote from: Nulltard on 08/20/2014, 01:55 PMthis is the first pog i've ever owned... and now i feel the need to get them all. WHERE IS THE POG ORDER FORM?
Really? Not sure if you're serious or not. You're good at the whole sarcasm thing.
I still have all my pogs from when I was a kid. Prize is my Guilty/Not Guilty O.J. Simpson slammer. :D

Don't think so. Believe I got it from the local comic shop that sold pogs and pog accessories. No propane though.
I may need to get out my OJ POG slammer when this arrives. I wonder where the hell I put all of those things...
I am pumped, hoping it is here soon due to my proximity to Bone Thugs N Harmony!
Quote from: johnnymad on 08/21/2014, 12:51 AMDon't think so. Believe I got it from the local comic shop that sold pogs and pog accessories. No propane though.
I ran a search online. Cracked magazine had an issue with, "Phloggs", but not OJ related.
What I am thinking of must be the MAD Magazine special, that had the 12 OJ Pog stickers, to stick on pogs.

I was 13 or so, so maybe 95 or 96? If I did well on my math tests, my Mom would buy me pogs. My math teacher's name was Mrs. Dick. Seriously.
I never had a POG, I was too old for that.
I never really understood them.

I was drunk more often than not in the 90s.
Wasted my money on shitty Turbob games when Pogs were all the rage. :P Never owned one myself unless you count the one that I found in a wallet I pick-pocketed out of some kids backpack in high school.
Got an unused, incomplete set of Mortal Kombat pogs from the pog era. Never gave a damn about pogs, but thought they were cool so I had to have 'em.
Pogs were awesome when I was little, I remember actually playing the game with friends. Used to have a sick transparent scorpion slammer, similar to this:
(https://i.imgur.com/CpsPZpD.jpg)
That my big bro won for me (one of the few times he was super cool) at a Crag's Cruisers. Aww, man, that takes me back. I rarely used ol' scorpy, though, since I had a thick metal slammer that should have been and sometimes was banned from playing. That's when I would use one similar to this:
(https://i.imgur.com/SRcC711.jpg)
instead.
Fun times.
Quote from: Nulltard on 08/21/2014, 05:12 PMso pogs is a game? where you smash pogs with paperweights? they're already flat... i don't get it. :/
We never will.
You stack them up and try to flip them over. If you flip em, YOU FUCKIN WINNIN'
It's like tiddly winks for kids with anger issues.
I just made a POG thread. https://www.pcengine-fx.com/forums/index.php?topic=17549.0
Have a bunch from when I was a kid. Need to take some pics.
I may not get pogs but I like having something from the same era as a bonus.
Really great idea!

Mine arrived today but a new puppy hasn't allowed me to play more than once or twice.
It's awesome so far but I have a lot of room for improving my skills aka had my ass handed to me with scores of 5000 then 10000 lol.
Also, holy crap! I used to have that pog maker!!!!!!!!
All but a handful of international ones went out. I'm fixing the decals on the cards before they go.
These decals are an experimental process. If yours goes retarded, let me know.
We can either send a new one to you, or, we might just move to high quality stickers instead.

Have a bunch from when I was a kid. Need to take some pics.
Speaking of which...is everyone supposed to get a pog, or is it select people? I couldn't for the life of me find mine. :/
Just got home from happy hour at 1:00 AM... I was greeted by my game!
I can't wait to give it a try this weekend. I will say it looks awesome and I was really impressed with the title on the inside of the case for some reason!

Did you open the manual? lol I slipped alot of them inside of there.
If not, uh, time to mail you one. I definitely put one in every case.
They have to be unlocked first; POG achievements, bitches!
If your shipping box was as squished as mine (the box split along one edge), it could've escaped. :|

Mine was a little smashed, but not THAT bad. I've been looking all over my room where I opened it to see if it slipped out of the box when opening, & haven't been able to find the pog :-k

Fortunately, I can just mail a new one! \o/
Unfortunately, that means there will be one from that set of 20 that is missing in action.
Bastards.
I know I put one in yours though, because I was like OH HE'LL LIKE THIS ONE.
Check in the manual. I was slipping them in there. Then I stopped, and was just putting them in with the card.
but if that's proven to be a bad life choice, I can start jamming them in the thing again.
I like how the USPS is making releasing Atlantean a pain in the cunt.

I just did another search, fondled the manual profusely, tore my office up a bit more. I'm sure you sent it, I trust you. It either jettisoned out of the box in the middle of it's way here due to USPS mishandling or it slipped out in my own possession, & for the life of me just can't find it. It'd suck if it slipped out when my mail man put the package in the box, especially seeing as how the street sweeper came this morning...that should take care of that pog! ](*,) Well, if you want to send another one, that's cool. I won't die if I don't get one. Either way, I think the pogs should be secured in a different fashion. Would it be possible to put them on the bottom of the abcard tray, maybe wrap them in paper, & tape the paper to the bottom?
I'll just make and send you another one. I sent you one with an Atlantean on it.
if I can find enough blank refillers, I might just rifle out a hojillion of them and sell COMPLETE SETS to paying idio... i mean, customers.

QuoteIt's 25$ to flat rate to Foreignlands
The big box that Al sent me from the UK was slightly beat up, but par on the course I thought. It cost 15 GBP to send it to Chicago which comes out to $24.86 USD. That there is the UK rate, or close enough. ;)
Back in 2006, an old friend that resides in Finland, Akimaru (from the Ys IV project), asked me for a favor to buy something for him from TurboZoneDirect, that 6 foot extension cable for the Turbo Duo... TZD had a flat rate of $30 bucks for international orders, no bones about it whatever the item. So he bought it, gave my address to mail it to me for the US $5 rate. When I went to the Post Office to redeliver, I chose the cheapest "Economy Letter-Post" option for him at $4.10 which equaled 4-6 weeks by shipping boat service, etc. (as the employee explained it to me)!!! Hahaha!
So I checked my logs, I mailed it on February 9, 2006, and it finally arrived on March 31, 2006!! That's about 7 weeks! Hah, I'm a cheap bastard, what can I say... So, instead of $30, he paid $9.10 for S/H and threw $5 bucks my way for helping him out. It wasn't such a pressing item that he needed it right away, though the concern was for this method getting it lost, but it made it.

Buckeyes aren't fans of Florida or Louisiana either. :D Don't think I've ever received a package from there that was damaged though.

Yeah. Sometimes, they just scoot a little to the side and cut out all dopey. You have to cross your fingers basically, lol.

Wait until Friday two weeks ago.

It's Friday!!
My problem is that I don't check this sub-forum very often at all. Anyway the topic says "Friday" so any Friday should do, really. But after reading your post I waited until Friday 2 weeks ago from today and it turns out I was still a week late. What gives man! Which Friday do I need to wait to? You should just release them every Friday.

I had time to think about it. I'm waiting for my copy of Atlantean to be ready. Then I want the entire front cover of the manual signed.
*edited to add;
Actually, the blacklight thing, about 10+ years ago, a VHS/DVD distributor, where I was goofing with one guy who was with the place... Long story, jumping ahead. They shipped an order, and when looking it over, checking it out, I noticed one of the titles, on the cellophane, was something dried. It took me a moment to figure out what someone did. It's OK, certain things can be expected from Van Nuys area.

Give Joe a break! He told me about when I mod, or have a system modded, to fill the case with hot glue, so the shell sticks down. That was good professional information for me to be sure the mod works proper :).
I bet, a few years or more from now, this will be resurfaced, whether as a joke or not, with a comment similar to, "Still taking orders for this Friday"?
No I said to use hot glue instead of solder. And then after everything is connected to fill all the empty space inside the console with hot glue. This is the only truly professional way to do it.

I was joking around, Joe. During my posting here, I watched a Gamesack vid about amod, S-video, Sega geneis, during the process you joked, and told the guy you took vid years ago in his shop, something along the lines of, "And then we fill it with hot glue, right"?
He laughed, and basically said not unless you want it to stay that way, a long time.
That's what stuck with me most, from that recent vid, "..... fill it with hot glue....."

Quote from: Psycho Arkhan on 08/06/2014, 02:35 AMFIRST OFF:
PROTOCARD FOLKS. PLEASE PAY ME OR SOMETHING IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY.
I will hold your entitled copy, but if you leave me hanging for like 2-3 weeks, someone else is getting it and you can wait.
EVERYONE ELSE:
Pay attention Friday. That's when I will give you information on the orders.
Everyone will e-mail me with the provided button thing on aetherbyte.com, and it will be first come, first served. I will send PayPal invoices to the first lucky bitches.
I have like 40 available, split about evenly between regions. They are almost all going to you guys, with a small bit going to other key supporters who don't post here but have been equally supportive of Aetherbyte since day 1.
If you miss the first go around, you will be first in line for the next batch that is in the works.
So, don't panic. Bare with us. Also, the shipping will be Priority, but may take a bit longer, because I am doing all of the packing/shipping myself after work. This includes making the badass trinkets, and all of that.
Those who miss the first go around have the option to buy the ROM for 10$, and then you will only owe me 50$ + shipping when your turn in line comes for the card.
Said ROM will have some personal information wedged in it somewhere, so if you go uploading it to ROM sites, you'll be easily spotted by everyone, and they will hate you forever. Don't be a RoyVegas and ruin life for everyone.
Speaking of RoyVegas:
Don't even bother. You're not allowed to have Atlantean.
and last, but not least:
Remember, these are the first of their kind. They're 3D printed. They are not factory precision!
As such, there are slight oddities with the cases and cards.
Mainly:
-you may see some stray adhesive bits.
-The case trays are slightly larger than normal, so the back insert didn't quite clear the spine (should be addressed hopefully in the next batch, meaning we can figure out who has first prints! YEAH)
-The labels on the cards may not be 100% lined up. They're applied by hand. We're not machine perfect. We're basically fidgety programmers running on caffeine.
These things will improve over time so future projects will be even better than this one.
OH. AND FINALLY:
I'm not all about the whole "second printing!!12" Super Watermelon Factory bullshit.
The second batch will have lighter blue than the first print.
This was basically because I said "hey look at this shade of blue that wasn't available before!" when I went to buy more plastic filament.
This does not mean the different colors of blue, or different cuts of the manual, or any of that have any bearing on the actual value of the game package because of different print runs.
Anyone who thinks otherwise, stop being dumb.
Each and every copy is worth exactly 4902230235832598$.
The only thing of any collectible spastic value is the almighty trinket I hand made with a Christmas present I got in like 1995:
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/7/6093/6329465504_8aa564238a_z.jpg)
It's the best of the 1990s. New HuCard. New Pogs.
I am making those things by hand. The adhesive on the blank Pogs is completely shot. I have to reapply adhesive (but this means I can make them double sided instead of having the goofy yellow backs!).
They weren't kidding when they said use that shit in a well ventilated room.
They're hand made. They're not totally perfect. However, they're awesome.
Arkhan I emailed you about ordering one in the next batch. Will I receive an email about it this week?
You can place an order whenever. I've been putting all incoming orders into a giant waiting list where you'll get an invoice when cards are ready.

If i remember correctly, you had an everdrive? You can buy the rom from them for $10 and then have that $10 reduced off the price of the hucard when the time comes. It's nice to at least play it now!
Yeah, but cr8zykuban0 is more into bumping his post count and using exclamation marks.

I SENT SOME INVOICES OUT AND THERE ARE LIKE 3 UNPAID FOR OVER A WEEK.
IF YOU'RE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE, STOP DICKIN AROUND.
I am going to get these packed/shipped/etc. and start sifting through the rest.
It's kind of an uphill battle right now.
Out of curiosity Ark, have you started making the ROM available to people yet? I remember you saying about notifying folks when they are, but wasn't sure if it hasn't happened yet or if I might have been missed. I'm sure you guys are likely also busy making the cards too.

Doesn't sound like a complaint to me. Sounds more like he is disappointed that the post office cracked it, and he is probably well aware that it can be fixed. Most people have lots of CD cases laying around that can be pilfered for parts.

You're right ! It was just to inform that i finaly got my games but package seems to have been shocked. That's all.
I'll switch the case by myself of-course.
If you can't find a plastic thing that fits on the tray, let me know and I can send one that fits.
Nulltard's got totally jacked by the post office, and they amazingly gave him a refund for it.
His box looked like a hillbilly thought it was his wife, and beat it senseless.
Here's an update for people who don't check Facebook or the actual Aetherbyte news blog:
Atlantean is slow to build/ship. If you haven't gotten an invoice yet, it just means your turn has not come up in the list yet.Sending another order request won't get you one any faster.Tell all your friends.Also, we've got some unpaid invoices (that have had multiple reminders sent), and a few cancellations (people who were shocked or confused that they were being asked to pay for an item they requested?).
So, to anyone who's waiting, your wait just got a little shorter.
ill take a cancellation for a TG one.

They're all preorders, technically.
Why doesn't your case close.
