So the Quill18 video has been a great help in exposing more people to the game. I'd like to send press builds to more YouTubers. Does anyone have suggestions on who to target?

The best people would be people like Quill18 - not too huge, but not tiny either, interested in indie games, willing to try something different, and who can actually be emailed.

Who are your YouTubers? Tell us! And thank you very much!

You could always try Totalbiscuit, he does alpha and pre alpha videos, like with SPAZ.

I don't think Jesse Cox is the right person. He would probably fool around and make silly noises. He is more of a story kind of guy where he is being told one/discovers one, not where he creates one. He does a show called Greenlight with IndieStatik though to highlight games on Greenlight and give them a better chance there, though I do not know if you want to go through that, if you are already making good progress on your own. Other games might need more exposure/help.

TotalBiscuit is a good choice, but he is rather big. He does like strategy games though and has a show called Alpha Strike, where he could take a 20 minute or so look at the game. Some of his feedback is to be taken with a grain of salt though, since I noticed that he can sometimes not see the obvious things and then critise it. :) He is open about it though and you would get lots of coverage.

Another person you could try is Duncan from the Yogscast, also large coverage possible. He seems to be very into technical things, like Tekkit/FTB mods for Minecraft and likes to tinker with things.

Other than that, there are people like IndieStatik as a general indie game coverage, OfficialNerdCubed for a fun spin on things or maybe Lazy Game Reviews, though I haven't followed that too deeply, he does do deep nerd fun with lots of facts.

A group of youtubers I've followed a pretty long time are Nothernlion, JsmithOTI and RockLeeSmile.

Nothernlion is the head of their group basically, he occasionally does videos on indie games and has a pretty big following.

JsmitOTI is a good friends of NLs who he introduced into Youtube. He does quick looks at games and could help out.

RockLeeSmile joined their group and he does one indie game a day and has been doing it for a long time.

Robbaz, swedish youtuber, does hilarious videos (check out his Sims3 an Prison Architect Vids)
I think RimWorld would be that kind of game he would have a lot fun with and be glad to share it :-)

...allways an egg.

Yeah, he can be kind of goofy, but his Greenlight series with Indiestatik is pretty good.  And he did a couple videos on similar games and they turned out alright.  I have other suggestions as well but they've already all been mentioned.

Conti027

I'm personal not a fan of TotalBiscuit but a lot of people do like him.
Check out GamersDissent AkA Etalyx. I think he a fair guys and I love watching him just have fun on games.

Artistcaleb makes good lets plays, he also has a very sex voice. I think he could do a wonderful intro of this game.

Nero

For sure Mathas and then Northernlion and his crew. Christopher Odd, if he will do it. He is a great youtuber as well. I am not sure if he would do it, as it is not really his type of game but there is no harm to asking but Arumba at https://www.youtube.com/user/arumba07/videos. I love Grimith and SKS so maybe them at http://www.youtube.com/user/GrimithR/videos?view=0 and http://www.youtube.com/user/ioaz81/videos?flow=grid&view=1 respectively.

Jeffmajor, great youtuber. Plays dwarf fortress so he has a decent following of people who like these kinds of games.

Ferigad

Kurtjmac. He normaly does Far Lands or Bust on a regular bases, but he also plays Kerbal Space Program on a regular basis and made a let´s play for Teleglitch. I think this game could intresst him, he has a thing for simulation. And the Combatengine in combination with the colony build up could be his thing.
