Yay!

And maybe this time they’ll let us in for free too! (2009 when Flipside won they invoiced us later for entrance fees….)

Ludosity will celebrate this nomination by working some more.

Grab Achievements and win big prizes! Boot up old Bob and get the Build me up Buttercup Achievement today or tomorrow to get an extra ticket towards the big prize lottery at the end.

I think this drive is really awesome and is only something a place like Steam could do. To collect a bunch of Achievements across loads of games in a big Treasure Hunt is pretty much my definition of fun =)

So if you haven’t got it yet, go grab Bob right now! This is our biggest sale yet! 75% off is like.. alot!

Peace!

The concepts are over one year old and the main idea was to have a stylish and cheap way of doing art, since I was the only artist at that time and I was also in charge of the biz-side of Ludosity. Also having a somewhat abstract theme would give us more freedom on how to place out different objects in the world without making it look all too crazy.

I was hugely inspired by my friend Emil Berner who at that time was working on Fret Nice. The images are also using our old and ugly logo.

We’re wrapping on the next free DLC now, and everything is moving along quite nicely. With four brand new VR Missions and a new, fun Sandbox level, Bob Came In Pieces has now a total of 25 levels, easily clocking in well over 5 hours even for the experienced player, and more likely 10 hours to play the game from beginning to end.

Also new is the long awaited Gamepad support! We now have official support for Xbox 360 Controller, and any old gamepad should work really.

Stay tuned for more info!

We have gotten a lot of mails about the deal “Give Whatever You Want”. It has come to our attention that the man behind the site has had a troublesome background, which we at Ludosity didn’t know about.

Ludosity is officially not supporting this site any more since all the trouble that it has caused, not just for us, but for you, the gamers that we love and create games for. We sincerely apologize for any trouble it may have caused you.

If you have bought the pack and didn’t receive a copy of Bob, please just let us know and we will sort everything out.

Thanks,

Seems to be working now :)

We are looking to sort the stuff out with the creators of the page, so until we know more please don’t use this service. We at Ludosity thought that if we could help charity in any way just like the Humble Indie Bundle did, we would happily support it but we did not have any intentions of making people angry or in any way disappointed. So please, dont use this service until it is working again.

If  you want to buy Bob for a small amount, check this out: http://www.givewhateveryouwant.com/

This is a experiment like Humble Indie Bundle but they will also have deals with other stuff, such as music. Anyhow, this is a test from our side and if you find the deal interesting, give it a shot :)
