Mysterious Song Poll
« on: June 09, 2007, 08:21:45 AM »
This poll is pretty self explanatory!  :dance: If you are interested in buying the game, vote, and if you are interested in a signed copy, please state so. If you're not interested in buying, please state why. Note that the games will sell for $30 each, and will include a handsigned (by Nodtveidt) certificate of authenticity as well as being individually numbered. Autographed copies will obvious be much more expensive as the cd has to be sent to everyone to sign. If anyone has any other suggestions, I'm all ears! Thanks!  :mrgreen:

I'd take one for sure.

I may also be interested in the signed copy, pending final price for such a copy.

I will buy two copies, no question.

One will be a standard copy and the other signed.

Same as nat for me, assuming reasonable pricing.  I was crazy enough to do it for Meteor Blaster, and I'm not any saner now.

A signed copy won't be cheap...it will have to travel half the world before it gets to its final destination, and all that travel gets pricey...

You're going to be picking a number of discs to have signed based on expressed interest and do them all at once, right? Obviously, that's significantly cheaper on the shipping than mailing one around at a time.

Like nat said - I'll further assume that it would only be the manual and/or liner.

Actually, what would be cheaper, is if whenever someone wants a signed copy, we call fly in to some central point.....maybe in the Atlantic Ocean(thanks ALOT Seldane ](*,)) & sign them there & ship them from there to the buyer, I think that would be cheaper, & better!

I will purchase one copy, unsigned. $30.00 sounds good for a game such as this.

My suggestions would be:

- Please print actual CD's. Not every machine can read CD-R's. While it's nice to have a homebrew game on CD-R, not being able to play it sucks.

- You can always print a, "Have you tried these other games" on the manual, and list Neutopia 3, and other games you are working on. haha

- Put together an actual site for information on this game. Create a section on Frozen Utopia with information on the game, screenshots, etc, etc, That way the game has a home presence, where others can go to read about it. Put that together, then others can pass around a link when sharing the news of this game with others.

- A newsletter would be nice. Setup a mailing list where folks can be updated to 2 important dates. Preorders, and the actual day of release.

Put me down for one copy.  I would love a signed copy, since this is history in the making, but at this point I'm not rich enough to be part of it, so unsigned will have to do for now.   :)

Mr. Fulci:
These cds will be shrinkwrapped in a clear jewelcase, with an 8 page full color stapled booklet, a full color double sided cd tray card that will be individually numbered on the back, with a professionally pressed and printed game cd inside. We will thoroughly test the pressed game on actually hardware before finishing the press to ensure it will work.

That's pretty funny. I totally dig that idea!

It's not worked on a whole lot because it takes time away from actual coding, especially now that we have a deadline. After the deadline though, I will remind Nodt.

Once the deadline has passed, I will remind him of this too. I think it's time to do a "to do" list.  :lol:
