Anyways, we might see Nick somewhere else. Alright guys, time to scope out each game credits for Nick Popovich.

Goodnight, Child. It's past your Bedtime.

Logged in for one last time to say goodbye to Nick. One can only wonder where the game will go now. Perhaps to some place with the sea and sun...?

Anyway...

Goodbye, Mr. Popovich, and good luck.

You know, I simply cannot kill impostocubes anymore. If I see someone kill one, I will ignore that person for life. If I cannot continue a level because of one, I will just leave.

As a tribute to Nick, OOO should make every single Jelly Cube an Imposto for one day (removing their chance of dropping toupees of course).

*salutes Nick*

Through the past couple years I have loved playing this game, all the while being amazed by the amazing work and creativity of the people who created it. This work of yours put the drive in me to seriously pursue a career in game development, and I can only dream of one day creating a work of art and imagination such as spiral knights, just know that your work has inspired me and likely many others to shoot for great things. Goodbye, Nick, may fortune and joy follow you down whatever road you travel.

Forever a player and fan,
Magnum-Frost

Why not place a monument of an impostocube right across from momoni? Or right on the fountain for us all to admire.

You were great Nick. I'm glad you were able to create such a great game and I suspect you will continue to do so. :) Your game is why we're all here today, and even though we're sad to see you go, we are stronger.

From the community, and to the development team as a whole, thank you.
It's been fun!

Thank you, Nick,

for creating such an awesome game. It's unlike any other... I knew that it was more than just the next RPJ. I'm happy that I am a littllllleee part of the community that made your dream come true.

I'm worried about SK's future but something is wrong: Why would the man who created SK with such an imagination and love just leave it? I don't think that Nick just got "bored"... From what he says, the OOO team seems alright but SEGA...
I'm sure we won't learn what's the reason so I can only wish you good luck in your future adventures :'[

@Kamishinlnoyari

Well, the reason may be as follows: He may want to create yet another world, one which is entirely different. The problem is that (at least, it is for me) is that after working on a project for some (large amount of) time, another idea, another project, another world may form within his mind. I'm not sure about some people, but I tend to make new things up often. While I apply myself to refine one idea rather than jump to whatever I've just come up with, (so that the previous idea actually becomes something meaningful) there is probably a point where it feels like it's become rather refined.

Let's just say that maybe Nick is out of great ideas; he's refined this world as far as he can bare and at this point everything he makes is so-so and he cannot live up to what he's last created. Which leads me to another idea, one which I haven't thought of...

What if the reason why OOO, or in reality, the SK dev team, seems stubborn in some things, is because it's really that it conflicts with something that had, is, or will be in this world if Nick had/has/was going to be added. It's far fetched, but...what if Nick is a control freak?

Meh, THEORIES!

Well... you've done so much for this game. You've worked on all extra content. You've been here since Beta if I recall. Tis a pity you must leave, but we all have our reasons. We're all going to miss you.

We'll all remember you by putting hair on our jelly products. Goodbye Nick, we bid you farewell on your perilous journey in the real world.

Ah, now I recognize that feeling....

Nick: Hey, we need to talk.

Us: Uh, okay. What's up?

Nick: We've been in a serious relationship for awhile now, and it's been great - best relationship I've ever been in!

Us: Uh-huh (nervous feeling in stomach)

Nick: But, well, I've met someone else, someone more attractive to me. And (talking quickly now), um, I'm really sorry to spring this on you like this, but well I'm, um, that is, I guess I'm breaking up with you . . .

Us: Wait, what!?! But what about . . .?

Nick: Sorry, really sorry, I know this kinda sucks, but, it's been great and all, but, any way goodbye, and, uh, take care and all. I'll always remember the great times we had together. (Walks out the door.)

Us: (looking around Haven in a daze, everything feeling drained of color, runs to a corner in the snipe garden to cry.)

Can some cheese change your mind?

Well, I gotta say this game is pretty sweet. It has problems that need to fixed, and we know all what those problems are. The community is diverse, from the fun loving people, to the ragers that get under our skin. And over all, I enjoy it. I will keep on playing for as long as I enjoy it. I may take breaks, and I may sometimes be on the verge of quitting, but I will always, be a fan of this game.

This has been Hero-of-Cheese, loyal fan of Spiral Knights, saying thanks and good-bye to Nick, the loveable pink slime cube that sports a mustache that shows off his greatness.

Thank you for this and I wish you all good on a new way of life. Farewell.

Best of luck,

I hope you do well in your future prospects Nick, even if I disagreed with most of you design choices. To you credit you did begin to turn things around a bit later in the game and running a f2p can be especially difficult.

I AM still peeved about how you handled bomber gameplay (I still want the old RSS back!).

Hope you do well, please pick a successor that plays as a bomber.

Time falls
Inevitably. Where am I?
An unknown world.
Robots, jellies, dreams,
What is there
I didn't wish?
The creator of this
Dimension, gone.
With the soul
And spirit, dead,
It will never be the same.
Only one, with true
Passion, can once rule
Again.
