Dsh's interview with the creators of this game:

An Interview I did with Final Form Games: http://www.racketboy.com/podcast/racket ... form-games

Final Form games are the creators of the acclaimed 2011 PC shoot-em-up Jamestown, a rousing success on the Steam platform and one of the best indie games of the year. For this episode of the podcast, I sat down in person with the three man team that runs the studio – Hal Larsson, Tim Ambrogi, and Mike Ambrogi - to ask them about the ins and outs of game development, the complexities of designing a shmup engine, their experience working with Valve, and their upcoming plans for the studio. Listen in to find out the connection between America’s Army and Jamestown, the studio’s thoughts on the current gaming landscape, and where they got the idea for creating a shmup on colonial Mars.

Going back to the credit-feeding thing, if people take a pic of the 'Results' screen, then it shows all the stats from your run, including how many credits you used, so that should clear that up...

[ExedExes]

EDIT: Exed; you wanna repost those non-steam Jamestown links for those w/o Steam?

Comin' at ya.

Desura - $9.99 (has client similar to Steam)
Gamersgate - $9.95 (client & DRM free similar to GOG)

[DocHauser]

Don't forget the DLC (extra ships), which is also available on Gamersgate (may not be on Desura, though).

[KalessinDB]

Welp, working 4pm today until 8 am tomorrow, but then off for the next 2 weeks so plenty of time to unlock and get my abyssmally low scores

[dsheinem]

Don't forget the DLC (extra ships), which is also available on Gamersgate (may not be on Desura, though).

Are we allowing those?

[noiseredux]

I got 1,500 ducats on st 1 and it did not unlock Gauntlet. Can someone tell me this to me? Doc said it was 'trivial' to unlock but I can't seem to figure out how to do it?

Can someone tell me this to me?

knock it off.

I know nothing about these - if they aren't (easily) available on all platforms I think we should not allow them.

[ExedExes]

DLC is available on Desura. I'm gonna stick with the normally available ships, might be a good idea for all those who may not want to cough up the extra cash.

Quite honestly, I think I'd be sticking with the standard Beam ship (with the Charge ship a distant second)

I got 1,500 ducats on st 1 and it did not unlock Gauntlet. Can someone tell me this to me? Doc said it was 'trivial' to unlock but I can't seem to figure out how to do it?

It's in the shop to unlock. I had the same issue, so no worries.
