Title: Kindly consider writing an article on 3079
Post by: erlend_sh on January 28, 2012, 12:25:58 AM
Hi,

I am not the developer of this game, I am merely volunteering to help the developer, Jeremy "phr00t", as he's got his hands full updating the game still whilst staying in touch with his community.

So why should you feature this game?

The game trended on Reddit, and it was all uphill from there:

It was also featured on Yogscast, now with close to a whopping million views:

The 3079 entry on IndieDB.com was #1 for several days in its "Popular Games" (most views per day) list, rubbing shoulders with indie giants such as Minecraft, Amnesia and Overgrowth:

It's a Minecraft-esque that made it past the fanboy clubbers with flying colors.
