    That looks like a piece of painted poo
    Is that stock or limited edition?

    Hahahah ffs that has to be a piss take! :pac:

    Is this game coming from the same devs that brought us that cack Turrican rip off? Fair play to folks wanting to support indie devs and all that but I really hope folks haven't wasted your hard earned on it.

    You've really taken to the shmup genre if your poo comes out shaped like that! :D

    Sturmwind has shipped, cant wait to play foam ship in the bath.

    "I can confirm that you order has been dispatched and sent in the meanwhile - the change of the order to "completed" is an internal notification from our office that DHL has sent us the confirmation.

    Have a lot of fun with the game and if there are further questions, don't hesitate to contact us again!"

    Just logged in to check. Order status now says 'completed'. No emails, no DHL code, no reply to my support ticket. What a bag of grapefruits.

    Had a look and mine is exactly the same.

    Bit of a shock, just checked the address and for some reason my county isn't listed. It just says 'Bray, Ireland'.

    eeek!

    edit - checked under my personal information and it's listed there. That's really strange. Ah well, at least I have a fallback there if it goes tits up.

    Is it kind of a given now that all European copies of Sturmwind would have been delivered?

    Starting to get a bit concerned.

    My LE arrived about 5 mins ago. The model ship is actual a lot better than people are making it out to be I reckon.

    I love the little magnetic snap shut case too. No need to worry about damage either. Mine was shipped in a cardboard box and in about 900 jillion layers of bubble wrap. :)

    All this talk of Sturmwind, still haven't heard if the damn thing was worth the wait, or is it so bad that the eternal wait has rendered you all shmup fools?????
    Probably not, funny if it were true, but probably not.....

    So, what's it like?

    Need a review!

    I'm going to hook it up to my capture rig tonight and do an upscaled HD capture/review/first impressions.

    Initial buzz around the Web is that this game is worth it's salt. :)

    Oh great! Hearing that is a relief. I'll hold back on sending angry emails until Monday :)

    OK, I've made a video. Just need to do some commentary and upload it.

    Hopefully it will upload tonight but I've to be up at 4am for a taxi collecting me for work so an early night awaits!

    Looks decent enough. What's up with the controls? I didn't understand what you said.

    The controls are grand, but on the options screen they are written out wrong for different settings. Type A buttons are backwards etc.

    They had 7 years or so to spot that haha! :)
