Gauging interest: do you like owning your games and not just a license to play it?
Would you buy our games on CD if you could?
Do you still have a CD/DVD player? Would you get one so we can all Stop Killing Games?
Right now these are just mockups but they could be real!

Good morning lovely people!
We're still celebrating our 15th anniversary & planning to bring you something new every week, be it news, a retrospective, a new or remastered project, a livestream, a podcast, a sale, or something else entirely over the next year.
We are COOKING!

Today is our 15th Anniversary! The weirdest part of turning 15 is that Half-Life 2 was only 5 years old when we began this indiedev journey.
If you've played our games, downloaded our demos, jammed to our soundtracks, or bought our merch, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you.

Honestly there has never been a better cost-saving measure than not upgrading beyond CS6.

Although that new incoming feature for Illustrator that can generate like 16 different angles of your vector art makes that a questionable choice, but we'll just be patient for an open source alternative.
