You guys are great. [The Official ACK Praise Thread!]

Post by pinback »

Hey everyone. I'm pinback. I'm from "above the line", as we say here at Jolt Country.

I don't belong with you good people who are creating wonderful things, as everything I do here (and everywhere else) is toxic and destructive.

But I wanted to give you all an "attaboy" from "above the line". I totally admire and am impressed with everything you're doing here, and look forward to seeing all of your future endeavors and creations.

God bless.

- Your friend from the darker places, Pinback.

Heres link to the original thread from years ago when I attempted to gather together all references made to ACK on the world wide interwebs.

Add to our list of places where ACK is getting noticed.

The OP used to have a link to a list. But the list was just all the links mentioned in the thread in one place for convenience, so fear not, all the stuff in the list in still there in the thread.

I... I don't... I have never and will never play an ACK game. The whole concept sickens me.

LOVE you guys, though.
I don't have to say anything. I'm a doctor, too.

Well the OP still serves as a good opener for a thread containing any praise or any attention at all really from the world abroad. So here is the latest I've found on the web.

A blogger has listed ACK among a few game making kits he plans to make video tutorials for!

This isn't praise but there is mention of ACK. It seems that ACK has become the standard upon which newer programs of a similar fashion are compared.

Dark Disciples is the name of the game + editors that is being compared to ACK. Heres the official homepage with screenshots.
