My Pier Solar replacement cartridge has arrived!

Actually, it arrived on Saturday, but since I rarely publish posts on the weekend this is the first chance I've had to say anything about it.

I hate to say this, but I wasn't all that sure the guys at WaterMelon were going to keep their word and send me a replacement cart. A part of me thought I had been scammed, although in retrospect I guess that was kind of a silly thought to have considering I did receive the professionally produced case and manual.



As for when I'm finally going to be able to play this homebrew RPG, well, that'll probably have to wait until I can get my parents to ship me my Genesis or until I buy a Sega CDX (a sexy little system that I've wanted for quite some time).

For more information on Pier Solar, read this post or this post--or go to the game's official site, where you can order a copy, too, if you so choose.

I really wanted to get a copy of this but the missus would kill me! :P It is as good as I hear?

I couldn't tell you if it's good or not, Simon, as I haven't played it yet. I definitely like the looks of the videos I've seen of it, though. I'll be sure to post impressions after I play it (although I'm not sure when that will be).

Yay! I'm glad to see this resolved in a good way :). Whenever I buy something from a Not-Amazon site I always worry it might never show up lol.

Bryan Ochalla said...

Hey there Marcus! Yeah, I'm happy it was resolved, too. Now I just have to get a Genesis so I can play it :)

You've played this game, haven't you? Or am I confusing you with someone else who has commented on this game?

Marcus said...

You must be confusing me with someone else :P. I waaaant the game a ton but didn't end up buying it. I really should support indie devs more lol.

Bryan Ochalla said...

Ah, sorry about that :) I thought for sure a regular commenter here had mentioned buying and playing the game, but I can't remember who it was!

Anyway, I'll let you know what I think of it after I finally get around to playing it :)

I'll be interested to hear your impressions when your gaming stars align. I'm glad they sent it, though!

Zigfried said...

Those folks at Watermelon are jam up guys. Glad you got the full package now!

Bryan Ochalla said...

Oh, yeah, I'll definitely share my thoughts eventually, Justin. It's actually for the best that I don't have a Genesis at the moment -- as I still have to beat Pokemon Black, plus I've got all of these Xbox Live Arcade and Indie games to play.

Bryan Ochalla said...

Thanks, Zigfried! Do you have Pier Solar, too? If so, what do you think of it?

Sean said...

Ah, great! I'm glad that it finally arrived! Points to them for making good! Let us know what you think of it when you get your Genesis!

Bryan Ochalla said...

Thanks, Sean! I'll definitely let you know what I think of it -- as soon as I can play it :)
