Yup, removing the login wall is on the TODO this week. Account creation will be Facebook only for the time being, but you soon won't need an account to browse the site's content.

Thanks - That's great to hear and something I'm sure a lot of HN'ers will appreciate.

  They'll only let us rest once there are alternatives to Facebook login but this is a step in the right direction I'm sure :)

    Haha, true... sorry to be one of those harping on you to get this done... I could create a throwaway account but I'd rather use a 'real account' for something like this that I'm actually really interested in. Looks great, everyone here appreciates your hardwork!

      For every comment, there are probably at least 50x more people who echo those sentiments but choose to stay silent. Count me as one of those people (who didn't post in this thread the first time I read it) who absolutely refuse to use Facebook authentication even though I'm very interested in finding out about Makegameswithus. (I use Grooveshark instead of Spotify on my desktop for the exact same reason)

        They make their voice heard through upvotes, we notice when the top voted comment every time we turn up on HN is about FB login.

Are you also going to support Android in the future, or even desktop gaming ? Not everyone is interested in iOS. :)
- jvrossb 14y ago
  Desktop gaming I don't know. Android yes.

    Good to know. I assume you may be interested to do tie-ins in the future with the other YC-funded company, Humble Bundle :)

Will it be possible to disconnect Facebook? I made a throwaway FB for only MakeGamesWithUs, because I wanted to join.
