Way to go Cas! ;D/
See, we’re improving!
In case you didn’t know already: planning on going full time next year. Woot!
Cas
Congrats!
Well deserved in good competition!
Great news! 8) Looking forward to more great games!!!
A very well-deserved award Cas! Hey, great news about going full time next year! Any idea of when Monster Mash might go gold?
Bill
woow - congrats
Not having played a lot of games this year I can’t say whether its justified, however the game IS bloody good!
Congratulations man. Hard work pays for itself.
Great, congratulations! 
well deserved, congrats.
that puppy invaders applet is also damn addictive
can’t wait to see whats next.
Monster Mash is coming in the early Spring next year. I tested it out on a friend last night and she sort of just got hooked on it despite the fact it’s all just random at the moment and nowhere near 10% finished. Which is a good sign. (Then she got stuck playing Titan Attacks for half an hour, haha)

“(Then she got stuck playing Titan Attacks for half an hour, haha)”
She wasn’t the only one. I just had to see what all the fuss is about.
Titan Attacks seems similar in some ways to Tyrian and Raptor: Call of the shadows.
Cas, as you know, you are my all time hero!
Tried the game, got a bit hooked on it good game, well worth the award.
Congrats!

Yeah, all the Linux (Webstart) builds have been broken for months and months and I’ve just not quite gotten round to fixing it yet, on account of, um, various difficulties with life etc. but seeing as I’m going full-time in the not-very-distant future I’d better get that fixed.
And get Kev to do me a native Linux build 
Cas
Gratz Cas! Both on getting game of the year and making the decision to do it full time.
Kev
PS. Pfft, linux sminux - those guys don’t pay for games anyway.
Gah.
Curent windows version crashes every time I hit the play button on a brand-new winxp widescreen laptop.
I would guess video drivers, except it momentarily displays the game-screen, for just a few tenths of a second.
Could really do with an error-handler in there Cas to catch fatal errors and popup-dialog them to the user (assuming this isn’t a JVM internal, which IIRC you cannot actually trap).
If it’s crashing like that, it’s a VM crash, most likely brought on by some driver crapness.
Cas
And just in case ya didn’t notice we got 4rd place for best graphics and also 3rd place for best overall game of the year!
