Galcon is a beautiful game which has suffered from a serious problem, the fact that it's independent, it's unique, and doesn't have the best art, has concealed this jewel. Finally, Galcon has a real opportunity to shine. With it's move to instant action it has the opportunity to be exposed to thousands of players. This was going to make galcon big, but IA tested out a pay to play system on galcon, it shot it's public appeal, alienated players who couldn't play. This system has all sorts of problems It represents IA poorly, It is inconsistent with the other games, It expresses the wrong message to it's players. Most of all, it's preventing a huge number of games from being played. There are other ways for IA to make money off this game, but their current system has shot IA in the foot. Please sign. Sign to change galcons payment system, something that lets players play, something that doesn't kill the player base.

I was looking at the player counts earlier and it really confirms what we talked about since the start because this pay to play mess is just draining the life out of the community. I spent all morning emailing the devs to explain why this is a mistake but they are just being silent for now which I guess is what happens when they do not want to listen to the people actually playing the game.
