Has the iPhone App craze reached its peak? Probably. But we feel the “iPhone App submission horror story” craze is still going strong. Here’s ours. The game We’re in the business of making parody games. Our premiere title is an RPG parody that takes place on the Internet. With that spirit, here’s the pitch for our app, called iCapitalism: “When I was young, I had all the time in the world to play video games, but no money to buy them. As an adult, I have all the money in the world to buy games, but no time to play them.” ...

After about a month of downtime, we’ve decided to move our blog off our server to Wordpress. It was previously running on Mephisto which seems to be a dead project now, and meant keeping two complete Ruby environments running at the same time because we run 1.9.1 for Forumwarz. It should be a lot more stable and permanent at this address. Sorry for the downtime! Soon, I’ll post a new blog entry, I promise! ...

Thanks to the grand efforts of our Beta team, Episode 3 launched today with very few issues. I’m watching the server right now and many people are playing through the new content! As I’ve said before, this episode is really important. Releasing it means that we’ve followed through on initial plan. If you check out the updated credits page, you’ll see that we were only able to do this with the help of many other talented individuals! I thanked them yesterday, but I’m going to do it again. ...

As you all know, tomorrow we’re opening the flood gates and launching Episode 3 of Forumwarz to the world. I’m super proud of this Episode. It is by far our biggest update to date, and it concludes the story arc that we started out on years ago. I want to take this last moment of silence before the storm to thank all the non-CZ people who contributed to this episode. I’m talking about all the writers who dreamt up the characters and missions, the artists who created new images, the people who recorded their voices for tubsonics and the testers who relentlessly helped to polish the whole thing. ...

I’m delighted to announce that Episode 3 of Forumwarz will be released on January 20th. This is by far our biggest Episode yet, and the amount of work it’s taken to get to this point is staggering. It would have never been possible without the hard work of dozens of people, so I’d like to extend my thanks to everyone who has helped getting us this far! buildrs will be suspended ...

I’m delighted to announce that yesterday we launched the beta of Episode 3. Don’t be dissapointed if you didn’t get an invite! We only had a limited amount of slots available and we filled them up quickly. We will be running a second beta round once the initial bugs are sorted out, and then we’ll be launching the game in January! Last year, pre-orders of Episode 2 were successful, so we’ve brought them back. For the measly price of 100 Brownie Points (about $10), you can snag a copy of Episode 3, as well as a Free E-Peen(tm)!. Note: that all characters attached to your account will get the peen, so it’s a good way to bump up your penile length in one fell swoop. ...

It’s been a while since we released the Episode 3 podcast and our users have resorted to threats of ransom for updates! As you can imagine, a lot of progress has been made towards finishing Episode 3. I am looking at my Episode 3 flowchart right now and far more is crossed off than isn’t, and every day I cross off some more. Right now the majority of the development is in my hands, as all the conversations/items/forums have been built for some time. ...
