When and how did you discover Ubox? (To forum)
« on: December 23, 2012, 09:29:56 PM »
So, back in 09', I was a 10 year old looking online for programs that were astronomy related (Because back then and still now, I had a strong interest in astronomy). I do sound like a nerd, but I was bored on that day so I had an urge to find some entertainment. I clicked on the link to this site and and saw the video on the main page. I watched it, and right away I was fascinated. I cried to my mother for the game, but she never had the money or time to purchase it. Three years later, I registered to the forums and finally purchased the game.
Thank you Dan for making this freakishly awesome and addicting game.  :)

Well, between 2008~2009, i think
same as darvince
i was bored with gravity simulator so i decided to look for more gravitational physics sims and stumbled upon ubox under the search "gravity simulator", played with it for a while, signed up on the forums
as a lurker, I was trying to learn english, to converse with this bunch of crazy people
when I thought my English was good enough to at least be understood (despite still having some problems with "of" and sentence construction) I created my account
this year then Dan gave me an free original copy
(thanks Dan o/)

Quite a few years ago, it was a long time before ubox 2 got released anyway. I don't really remember how I found it, it was too long ago.
