Quoted from Apex:Go read the trailer trash pinball thread and get back to us.
If this isn't a troll post, you are launching way too soon. You are still prototyping parts but have set your final price? Your first impression to people is a crude alpha build? Coming form the game industry I would think you know that you don't show the public your alpha builds. I mean in a world where everyone lost their minds over some of the janky production in AAA games like Cyberpunk, why would you want that to be people's first impression? I would also pull anything off the site you don't have secured license to sell unless you are trolling that hard and/or want Megadeth's lawyer's signature on a C&D.
I can't wait until Ben or Levi sees this thread.
I'm not sure I understand all the negativity. The man isn't asking for money up front, yet people are acting as if he's pulling a JPOP already. Don't put too much weight on how the alpha build looks - about 95% of all prototype products look that way. Let the man finish the project and let the production machines speak for themselves.
dpadam450 - let me know if you need someone to do design reviews/DFM checks for PCBAs or firmware/software testing. I'm happy to donate some engineering time to the project.
