Achievements planned?

[Chronon]

Just wondering. Would also get much higher purchase priority on my list.

(It's so commonly supported feature so I'm too used to seeing on my profile that I have completed a game...)


EDIT: Actually if the answer is "yes" I could just buy the first 2 chapters during this discount.

I think they plan to add them later:

I'd love to see achievements and cloud saves, too. But right now, i'm far more interested in playing the next 2 chapters

You actually won't purchase a game because there are no pointless achievements? Wow what happened to just enjoying the game

This is market. Now we have many interesting indie projects and have ability to choose. Win project with more features, its obvious. You won't "waste" time to implement achievements? Okay, no problem, we won't waste our money at your game. All simple.

I'm sure that when first designing cheevos, one of the brains at Microsoft had a fit of dark fancy and theorized that players would eventually become so driven to get them that they would refuse to play something good if there weren't any Pavlovian rewards attached to it.

His coworker laughed and said something like, "but that's ridiculous. Who would would refuse a good game for its lack of achievements?"

Brain 1 would frown, his face ashen as he peered deeper in the future's ever widening chasm. "The final trick for Pavlov was to replace the food with the bell."
