It does smell of recipe for disaster to me =/
Just a few screenshots taken by DeadEndThrills:
Looks perty.
I REALLY like how the colour pallet and lighting a quite muted rather than heavily over saturated or bloom filled

People Can Fly
People Can Fly (Bulletstorm, Gears Judgement). Most of the Astronauts dev team are former People Can Fly staff.
Don't forget Painkiller, their first game.
Doesn't mean anything. Indie developers can't afford many testers, no matter how experienced they are. Besides, they kept testing and found bugs, so it's actually a sign they're doing a great QA job. Many AAA games have day one patches or are unplayable for days/weeks. I prefer a delayed release than that.

Wow, looks amazing.
A game I definitely want to play.
Any news on an eventual Mac version?

Kinda bummed they took down the direct purchase link, I was hoping to avoid giving a cut to Valve or GOG. I wonder if it will go back up when it's officially released?

That doesn't sound very confident... Sounds like the game is coming in hot.
Hopefully the bugs won't be that bad.
You're saying as if AAA games never had patches released on day 1 (or later). The good thing about downloadable games is that you can work on it till the last minute before the release.

Take your time devs! I won't be home for another three hours, after being gone for three weeks.

For what's it's worth, after they did Painkiller and before they did Bulletstorm, they were working a prototype for a survival horror game which got cancelled early in development. You can see screens of it here.

Aww yeah it's now in my Steam library. Take as much time as you need to, developers. People don't take kindly to Day 1 Patches.

They should just delay it till tomorrow and fix bugs instead of rushing and potentially introduce more bugs.

That's not what he's saying. They pushed back the release of the game by several hours to work on bugs. That would suggest that they're game-breaking bugs.
Since they're working on patching the game up to the last moment they can release the game today, they won't have spent much time testing the new build(s) of the game to see if it's stable. Conceivably, new game-breaking bugs could be introduced.
As others have said, it's a troubling sign.

God damn it Astronauts, get it together :/
No it didn't. It was set to expire at 5, it changed to coming soon at 5.
