Good news

Broken Age Part 1 finally is released, at least for backers. I just got 
my backers key via e-mail.
It also is buyable from Steam already:
http://store.steampowered.com/app/232790/ although the game is not 
unlocked for non backers yet (will be on the 28th).

Ok just to follow up on my mail, I played it for an hour yesterday, and 
so far I like it. The artwork is really beautiful but a little bit weird 
like you can expect from a double fine game, the voice acting is superb, 
and the puzzles so far on the medium to hard side.
Don´t expect anything like Day of the Tentacle the game has a different 
tone, although humor is present everywhere.

Here is also an excellent hands on:

I dont agree with their UI complaints, the UI as described works really 
well for me.
Btw. there is no review ban anymore, it was lifted today.

Ok I am reverting my position on the puzzles, they are mostly on the 
easy side.

    Good heehee!  I have a couple other games to finish before starting this 
one, though.
