How did you find out about Overgrowth?

[Lt_Sherpa]

I don't actually remember how I was linked to the post, but it's one of David's tech posts that got me hooked. It's been about a year of following Overgrowth's progress, but it wasn't until last night that I decided to finally buck up and pre-order.

When I first heard about Overgrowth, it was when a friend mentioned the deal with Unknown Worlds which was taking place, the Overgrowth / Natural Selection 2 deal.

I never found any particular interest in NS2, but I tried a demo of Lugaru, and watched some videos for Overgrowth. The world customization tools was the biggest attraction to me, and I preordered it directly of your website.

I first found out about overgrowth through moddb. I found it interesting, especially the style and idea behind it (fighting rabbits). At first i didnt do much with it. But because of the regular updates it kept me intersted. I eventually preorderd because i thought to myself... mhh even if this game is in alpha it wil give me something new to play around with every week. And i just know that the finished product wil be awesome. Fighting rabbits, dogs (love dogs), wolves, cats and rats.
Another reason that i bought it is because im a IT student and my next course is gaming. And what a great oppertunity this was, to follow a games developmeant weakly and be able to look around in its scripts and edit it to my liking.

I got interested in Overgrowth while checking out wolfire after getting steam key for HIB1 (before HIB2) and during christmas time decided to finally preorder.

From the NS2 bundle.

Hi.

A long time ago, I somehow got my hand on the Overgrowth/Natural Selection 2 promotion video, and then i just had OG in the back of my head. Time went on by, and when I realised that i hadn't purchased a new game for over 3 months, i bought Overgrowth

Was looking through ModDB for new mods and saw the game which looked awesome

I first heard about Wolfire back in May when I bought HIB1, been following Wolfire blog and Overgrowth Alfa videos since. Finally, I managed to cash up some prise money that I've won and now I've decided to buy Overgrowth!

I'm one of those long term people, although my forum account doesn't show it... I've actually been playing Lugaru since 2005 (I think from a Mac gaming site), and decided that if they ever made a sequel, I would order right away. A short while after that, the Lugaru 2 blog posts started, and then faded away... I kept my eye on the website periodically, and when they announced Overgrowth, I ordered as soon as possible.

I found the demo for Lugaru in a mac games site like 4 years ago, I loved it, and I searched the name of the company on google, found the blog, followed it for like a year and finally pre-ordered Overgrowth. I see a lot of potential in this company.

The first Humble Indie Bundle had come around, went on sale, and passed. I missed that opportunity. I heard that Lugaru was arguably the star of that group of games and so when I finally got to play it, it was at a friend's house on his Steam account. I heard about Overgrowth by finding the weekly alpha changelog videos. I was too impressed to not buy, so getting the money (really, it's hard for me at the moment) and being visually teased by each alpha made me want it more.

I finally got it and I don't regret it. It's amazing to take note of its progress and I can tell this one's going to be over-the-top in every good way imaginable. Plus, helping support independent developers who make great games for not only themselves but their fans gives that win-win sensation.

I'm telling all my friends about it, too. I'd be an asshole to not want to spread this project around. Keep up the awesome work, guys. I can't wait til the finished product.

Humble Indie Bundle 2 -> Lugaru as bonus -> saw Overgrowth -> turned "is this worth 30$?" reasoning off -> turned "Do I want to spend 30$ more this month on games?" off-> preordered

Can't say it was a mistake, though usually I'm cautious when it comes to preordering indie games, and it isn't the best thing to start a year with half a dozen game purchases

After finding out and buying the Humble Indie Bundle 2 (and getting the first one as well) I went to the devs sites to see what other games they had made. Browsing the Wolfire games list and reading about Overgrowth, I went to the Youtube channel to see Overgrowth in action. I enjoyed Lugaru so much, pre-ordering Overgrowth was pretty much a no brainer.

I'm not quite sure how I initially found out about overgrowth, but I guess it could've been due to the Humble Indie Bundle and Lugaru HD. That was a long time ago though.

I've been watching its development since then, sometimes more, other times less frequently. Recently got bored and decided to buy it and have a look.

I guess a lot of things factored into that decision, amongst others me being bored, having some money available, currently having a lot of fun with other indie games (mostly minecraft and super meat boy) and ninja rabbit combat. Already liked that in Lugaru, although I could only finish it on easy.

My brother (who I believe found it through a friend) showed me Lugaru a long time ago.

Not long after I heard about Lugaru, posts began appearing for "Lugaru 2". I ended up getting my Overgrowth preorder as a birthday present
