Don't worry, I cannot imagine the game leaving Alpha without a chainsaw.

JoveGuy. I'm calling 'im that from now on. Join me if you want?
Tormuse:
I don't know... I like the ancient Roman influence of the name Joveguy, but it doesn't roll off the tongue as well as Doomguy. Maybe a new nickname will develop naturally as we learn more about the game. :)
Also, I have a question, (since it came up before about DoomRL) will there be female playable characters in Jupiter Hell?

Under the plated armour, you can be anyone you want to be. I think the primary issue we had earlier in DoomRL was that the verb "to be" was hard coded to the extent that it was unsuitable/breaks the illusion of choice for using a female character. Maybe if that is looked into and supported code-wise (with the whole i18n stuff which I'm sure Kornel is working on, right?) it would be easy to support this.
And yes, i18n is important. I think there was a group trying to do a russian translation of DoomRL and were faced with major roadblocks and what-not since that was never taken into account.
