Gettysburg: Armored Warfare Released - #1 selling game on Steam! Hey guys,

  As you know I've finally launched my first game on Steam!  You can check out the website here http://www.GettysburgArmoredWarfare.com/

  If you guys want to buy the game for the modest price of $9.99 and support your local developer, go here - http://www.gettysburgarmoredwarfare.com/buy.html !  As some of you know I've programmed this entire game from scratch myself, and appreciate the support! Thanks a lot.

  It's also reached the top of Steams' sales charts for today! ( pics or it didn't happen ) here you go ....

  Back to the forums to help support the release!  Thanks for everything guys, I have gamedev.net a shoutout in the game's credits.

- Dan

Holy sh*t! Congratulations! You deserve it!

PS. Is the U$ 9.99 price tag because of certain physics engine (won't name it, as I actually love that engine) licensing model?

First of all, Congratulations on publishing a game on Steam. I saw Total Biscuit's video review on youtube. Wow, he was pretty harsh. But at this point you're still outselling Terraria on Steam and that's pretty huge!

When things settle down it would be great to hear a post mortum about the release and see what you've learned from suddenly having thousands of new players playing and testing your game. What changes would you have made? What configuration issues did you have to deal with?

Thanks for the comments/support guys.

Heh, yea the Total Biscuit thing is rough ... but for some reason it's like he experienced every single possible bug, even ones we didn't know about...so I can understand why he'd be so rough.

This is def. a rough first release for me, but I'm doing my best to get the fixes taken care of ... though responding to all the forums posts is quite time consuming to say the least.
