The Winter petition is working - n-Space president Dan O'Leary talks to us

As you guys know, we’ve been doing everything we can to find Winter a publisher. IGN, GoNintendo, and a number of other outlets have been pushing the Winter petition as much as possible. We’ve also been talking to various industry insiders to try and raise awareness for the title. Seems like so far, so good!

I’ve been chatting back and forth with n-Space president Dan O’Leary about Winter, and just this weekend he has given me a statement to share with all of you. I think you’ll find it quite positive!

The interest in and support of Winter has been amazing to witness. The whole thing has meant a lot to the team. The internet is so full of haters that it’s really refreshing to see all the positive response and the petition is quite amazing in itself.

We have had some new and revived interest from publishers for the title, but it’s not something we’ve aggressively pursued just yet. n-Space is currently in the midst of closing three titles - 7 skus plus localizations - so we’re pretty swamped right now. We’ll start some more aggressive follow-up in the near future. I suspect we will have some interesting conversations. - n-Space president Dan O’Leary

There’s the proof right there…this petition is definitely working. Publishers are paying attention to campaign, and they can see that we’re interested in Winter.

Now that we’ve made a big first step, it’s time to promote Winter more than ever! The petition will continue on, and I’d really like to see you all sign it. We also have some other goals that we’re working towards, and I hope to bring you more good news this week. We are closer than ever before…so don’t let up now!

Huge thanks to Mr. O’Leary for taking the time out to talk to us. It is very much appreciated, and I’m delighted to see the great news. Of course, I have to give a thank-you to all of you guys as well. You’ve been spreading the word on this petition, and it’s definitely working. None of this would be possible without you. I can’t tell you how proud I am of all of you guys…I knew we could achieve great things by working with wonderful people like you.

Just remember…the fight isn’t over yet! Once again, I’ll keep you updated with new information as soon as I can. Big things are brewing!
