Well, it's a signed, boxed copy. We thought that was pretty cool to have as a collector's thingy — and it comes with a bunch of other stuff too.

All the remaining rewards are... well, not a copy of the game. ;)

Konrad: How's about an impromptu Q&A?

Piotr Iwanicki, the Game Director for SUPERHOT will be jumping on the forums about 30 minutes from now to answer any and all questions you may have about the game, development, or just whatever.

With a game as weird as SUPERHOT, he better have some good answers.
Thanks for letting us know, K. dude ;)

Hi mr. Piotr Iwanicki!
Congrats on releasing your (damn that's good lookin') game!

Straight shot: is Killer7 an inspiration? I ask this since I've played Killer7 so much that it even turned into Killer8 (that's no joke, it actually happened) and the Superhot "atmosphere", judging from trailers, reminds me of that gem.
Thanks a ton! ;)

Hi everyone, Piotr here, director of SUPEHOT. I hope answer all your questions.

I'm glad you liked it!

Killer7 actually we discovered much later on during development. First inspirations for the artstyle were more about limitations - we needed to have an "easy to produce" style for our small team - and later it evolved into "crystals + concrete" style thanks you our awesome Marcin Surma.

The prizes are fine. It just would be great to be able to get into this without having to buy the game first. In order to win the game. The main prize, the boxed copy is a way more desirable prize if you don't have the regular version already is how I feel about it. Appreciate any contest effort of you guys, that way it's just not for me.

As we all know SuperHOT game is a spectacular success.
Though almost three years in a development of this game is huge amount of time.
My question is:

can you still play your game? :D

And secondly:
And after taking money check will go straight for a sequel or have totally different idea for new creative work?

So why is the game named "SuperHot"?

That was actually the idea behind adding Endless mode and additional variants in the endless levels, adding challenges. This refreshes the game, totally.

I was surprised when in the last months of development we added a real-timed mode for the endless, where you have 60 real time seconds to get as many kills as possible. Whenever you stop, it's a tiny waste of time, so the tempo is frantic, always as fast as you manage to play. Crazy, crazy suff.

We immediately started a tiny contest in the office. And every contest in the office quickly turns into "try to get a score close to Panos's". He's one of our level designers, and we even created a "certificat for best player" for him to hang on the wall.

So, I got kinda combo question.

What is future like for SUPERHOT? I mean, on what SUPERHOT team currently working in terms of improving a game?

And a second question. Is here any chance what we can see filters option in graphics menu? Like switch game stile from default to AD2013 or Ghost version? Would be pretty nice! xD

shujinco2: So why is the game named "SuperHot"?
It's about this insane mantra. The game is titled after this strange mantra repeated after every level - not the other way around. The meaning is in the way it gets repeated, like an earworm in your head. It's a strange title - I know - but it's awesome to have a title that doesn't sound like another game title.

After playing a game you will say HOT whenever anyone says 'super' :).

GOG Team said I could ask weird stuff, so...

Why is there a file called 'credits.ogv' that's the music video to Taylor Swifts "Shake It Off" in the game files? :P

We had to miss something! Backers should have already gotten their keys - if not 1)check your spam 2)spam our Szymon, who handles all those mistakes like a real hero.

It clearly shouldn't be there. We fix it in the update, although I considered a strategy of placing it in the main menu, getting sued by Taylor Swift... just to meet her... <3

It was a test video for video playback in the ASCII menu. Shake It Off works pretty well in ASCII because of the silhoutetes on clear background.

Ok, how can I reach your Szymon hero, because you don't answer messages on kickstarter :-(

1)We're working on updates for the game already! We're doing constant bug fixes now. We're testing the Xbox version. Doing something crazy with VR. For the content update, we're trying to figure out some way to create procedural levels.

2)We had those options in the Beta and I really want them to come back. There was a MODS menu folder with all the strange graphical and gameplay options.
