BCB Questions for Tom Happ of Axiom Verge

Well, I had never heard about Tom Happ or Axiom Verge until now, which I find weird. I haven't really heard anybody talk about this game, and from what I see the reviews are really good, and the really only negatives I see are from the people who don't like retro games, and some problems on the Vita version of the game. And with 65000 people owning it on steam one would expect it to be talked or recommended about more often, the numbers are only on steam so I can't really tell if it sold the same number on the other platforms. But all of this brings me to my questions.

1. Does Tom Happ think that the game would do better if it had marketing? (By this I mean like letting some youtubers review or play it to create an interest to more people.)

2. Did it do better on other consoles?

3. Did it come out in a time with big titles or similar games releasing at the same time?

4. If you could worked on this with a team, would you have done that?

I knew he'd agree to talk about Bloodstained. He's been mentioning it a little bit on his twitter.
So having heard the guy from AGDQ 2016 and from my friend GVirus, I am excited to hear the guy on the BCB. Kinda wish we also could have Dan on the BCB along with Tom, but I guess this is fine.

1. In your recent adventure with IGA (as shown by Goobsausage), How interested is IGA in Axiom?

2. What made you want to include a Speedrun mode for the game?

3. In your opinion, which version of the game do you like the most? (PC, Vita, Playstation, etc)

Also mister Happ, could you give a shoutout to the Sub 7 Xedur club? The speedrun chat/group that contains GVirus, PreFiXAUT, Dark, a couple of others and myself.
Can't wait to hear this one!

I will be recording tonight at 8:30 pm so please speak up before then if you have anything. Great stuff so far, everyone!

Sorry for the late entry, I just got home from a work thing...

1. Give the experience you have now and the response you've gotten from your fans/customers/haters (if any haters exist) what are some things that you did with the Axiom you wished you hadn't, things you didn't do that you wished you had, and anything else that you would otherwise change if you could "go back and start over again"?

2. How likely is a sequel (i.e. is there even a broad timeline for working on it yet?) and how closely would you like to see it tied to the first Axiom game (would you like it to take off right from the end scene of the first game? a couple days later? years later? not at all?)

3. What is your feeling about Bloodstained in general? (the kickstarter, swordorwhip, the initial look, the most recent update, etc.)

4. what has been your best and worst experience working on Axiom?

I had another one... but I cant remember what it was...

We talked for two hours! Such an easy guy to chat with. I will do my best to edit it down, but it will be a long episode.
