Secretly moving this here from the OP to tidy it up and you can't stop me

You're all far too kind! I'm just glad we managed to get this off the ground without me managing to set something on fire; it's been ages since I've done anything vaguely technical

I've played the shit out of this game and loved it.

One of the best co-op games of 2010.

edit: Gotta grab all of them prize-boxes.

Yeahh, LP2 is massively fun in co-op. Shame that the single player experience is a bit of a damp squib, though; for the first few months of the game's release they hadn't even bothered to consider that people might play it on their own and the entire thing wasn't even remotely balanced for it. One of approximately a thousand reasons the game got panned in reviews, I reckon!

Seems we have a bit of a type between this and Mercs 2.

The current LP Mission Statement is "i bloody LOVE PRIZES" and I'm fairly sure that it's not going to be changing any time soon. It might, at a stretch, be temporarily replaced with "please don't stand on my head" in emergencies but prizes and things that stand on your head have a certain inexplicable connection.

I've been waiting for this for so long, pity 95% of all things the wheel of fortune ever gave me were nom-de-gurres and new emotes.

As a result I am the most Super Sentai Albert Wesker in Space.

Oh, I'll be sorting the bloody slot machine system out before we're done, trust me! Erm, verbally sorting it out. Well, I'll complain about it a bit, maybe. Either way I'm going to do my best to actually explain how wretched the whole system is when all you really wanted was a bigger rocket launcher

oh not like THAT

Dan, is it possible for you to reupload the old Lost Planet LP?

At this point it mostly looks like a "no, sorry." I'm still missing one or two of the older videos and there's too much stuff in it I don't particularly want to reupload because of it all being a bit cringeworthy in retrospect. Also it's full of 2007 references, which are just ghastly to look back on; who even remembers what an "Amy Winehouse" is?

Wow, it's about time. I'd totally forgot about the test post by this point.

Yeah please continue to make that pixel art at all costs.

I don't want to disappoint you but all I'll say regarding the art style at this point is that we're branching out but you'll still be getting your fill of lovely pixels
