The joy of building an online community

The past couple weeks have been crazy busy, and even a little overwhelming.  We’ve had an early build of Dinowaurs up on Kongregate’s website, and testers have been playing the game to help us find bugs. 
If you’re interested in testing Dinowaurs, drop us any e-mail with your Kongregate username, and we’ll add you to [...]

Back in 30 minutes….lunch.

Progress Update #2: Intuition has a Podcast

“Hey, we’re back!”
No, it’s not Dr. Katz, but instead a much drier, less-squiggly version here to bring you our next segment: way more recent stuff. We haven’t been showing as many pretties as we should, so above, I give you the very unofficial, unfinished Dinowaurs logo. It’ll probably resemble something like that above.
