Hotsampling! The game takes 4K screenshots no matter what your resolution is. Nice.

However:

Note that there is a bug where screenshots from each new play session will override
screenshots from previous sessions - so if you want to keep your screenshots, move them out
of this folder before starting a new game!

Looks like they gave out some copies a bit early to streamers so they can put up videos immediately: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hpz-oX3gKys

Mario wasn't sure if this Jeb guy was a good influence on Yoshi.

I look forward to seeing how it works with my setup at 21:9 and 53:9 aspect ratios, but that's a sweet feature.

You know, I know their goal is to sell copies, but it does piss me off a bit that even with beta, streamers get it before the people who actually paid years ago to support the game even being made.

Nothing against the streamer personally, quill is a big strategy guy so he very well could be a backer, but come on.

God I dont have an hour to watch this, I hope people post like a...5-10 clip of gameplay or something. Every stream always starts with 5-10 minutes of talking and stops and starts all the time.

Duly noted, I plan on recording as soon as this stuff goes up.

Actually, gently caress it, gonna play some MW3 and record that to prep. Still want to LP that at some point.

Right click and drag is to freely tumble the camera. I know what they mean, but all I can picture is your camera spazzing out like you're rolling it along the ground.

On an unrelated note:

sending an email that they were going to send an email when the keys were ready was just cruel. I immediately quit the poo poo I was doing, came over to my gaming computer, and . . . :sigh:

You're waiting for a steam key, so there's nothing to do until that shows up in Backerkit.

You had to do it at $50 and up. You can email them and ask to pay for an upgrade but they raised the price :10bux:.

For those who don't have their key yet:

I had deleted the original mail with the backer kit link and had to request it again from Kickstarter.

One minute after getting the mail to the backer kit I received the mail with the key.

Coincidence ?
