I suspect it's more of a pun than a new hat.

I guess if the game ends up being awful we should just smile and play it for hours. Because it's free.

If the game is awful then complain about how and why it's awful, not how it took 2 years to make; which is frankly not that long for game development either.

If a game is free who cares how long it took to make.

I don't think that the game is really a Valve game. Its sort of a level up from a mod. Like a level up from Narbacular Drop. I don't know much about it, but I think that the game was mostly made before the guys were hired by Valve.

it's something similar 2 how TFC was made and released

for alien swarm it was a UT2004 mod and valve hired the devs to make it for source

with TFC it was a quakeworld mod and valve hired the devs to remake it for goldsrc
