In case you don't know, Wired News has written a small article about Home of the Underdogs. Read it carefully, and you'll see that some kind soul has also managed to slip in a bit of gratis publicity for Noctis...

Kalman Farago in the article said:
".... Barring freakish luck, where else could you stumble into Italian developer (Alessandro) Ghignola's innovative Noctis, or examples of the Japanese freeware shoot'em-up scene?"


Thanks for the link, Premier. I'm glad to see HOTU gets increasingly more well-deserved publicity, and further, I am also very glad they mentioned Noctis in the article.

Yup!

well, I am a victim of freakish luck as I stumbled upon noctis without ever hearing of Home of the Underdogs...it would be a bit of a shame to waste such freakish luck on a game, no??
whatever.

Wonder who that was...I have a suspicion, but don't know for sure.

I myself discovered Noctis via the Orbiter Forum, and found the Noctis forums to be far more human than those ones. to be fair though, I'd been using HOTU for about 3 years before I came here. I just never visited the forums.

I stumbled upon Noctis during one of my random searches through HOTU. HOTU's an excellent site to learn about games like these.

I found Noctis from an abandonware site, oldgames.
Of course, they only have Noctis III, and they think it is now abandonware..
Anyway, it at least had a link to this site in it, thats how I got here. (Oddly enough, I ended up at this new site, not the old one.. at least, I think.)

HOTU is a pertty good site. It needs to be updated a little bit more as some of my favorite games' links are outdated. But a big old "woohoo" for the underdogs!

Damn, it's not abandonware at all !
HOTU's more serious when checking if a game's available or not...
