Hi Everyone,

Do you remember us saying that we are currently working hard to bring you all our next winter game?

Well we thought we'd whet your appetite with a little preview screenshot...
...It's gonna be Bad Ice Cream 2!

You might also notice the extra ice creams in the shot. That's right! It's gonna be Touchy's second multiplayer game!

As we are adding four players, I guess that means that we need more flavours! Can you say mint choc-chip?

Keep your eyes peeled for this game coming to Nitrome very soon :)

Hi Nitromians!

This week's pixel love game is Space Odyssey by Jeff Cardinal!

The game has a simple goal. It is up to you to collect as many ingredients as you can before plummeting down to the ground again.

The more you collect, the more platforms you can spawn and the higher you can climb!

Hi Nitromians!

Today we have chosen a very interesting pixel love game called Next Please created by Vyacheslav Stepanov.

We thought that the core game mechanic was very clever in this puzzle platformer.

You are playing as both the hero and the environment. Turn your character into solid platforms to reach out to higher  places and destroy them again when they get in your way.

There is a lot of fun to be had in this little gem!

Enjoy! :)

Hey loyal Nitrome fans,

It’s been another extremely cold and hectic week here at Nitrome Towers. For those of you who like to be kept informed of the latest gossip, we thought you might like to hear the progress of our Flightless Greenlight campaign over on Steam.

It’s both 'good' news and 'bad' really. The good being that it’s FINALLY smashed through the top 100 leader board barrier, currently being placed at spot 89 in the charts. The bad news is that we were at place 85 and have continued to drop further down :(

It’s a harsh place out in the Greenlight marketplace. So this means we need your help now more than ever. If you want to see our game Flightless be made into a full game, then you can help by clicking on the big vote button over on the Steam Greenlight Page via this link: Click Here

Also if you could all possibly share this message with all of your friends on Facebook it would really help the campaign.

Have a great weekend and enjoy our latest winter game Icebeak.=)

Now that we are in the Christmas period we felt that it was time to release the first of our two winter games.

Ice Beak is the latest in our icon game series. It's a puzzle shooting game which oddly, for a winter game, features just as much hot as it does cold!

Use our snow firing hero to figure out temperature and weight based puzzles!

What are you waiting for? Go and play now!

Hey Nitromians,

Winter has officially arrived and it’s another gloomy looking Monday over the Nitrome HQ in London. Lucky for all you gamers out there we have found another awesome Pixel Love for you all to try which we are sure will brighten up your day.

Cat Astro Phi is a truly retro styled action adventure by the mega talented Photon Storm team (Rich Davey & Ilija Melentijevikc).

You play as a plucky astro explorer who is on a mission to find his lost feline companion after crash landing on an alien planet.

Players will most likely recognize the “familiar” handheld game console that the game is successfully mimicking. The green tinged retro styled art looks super stylish and manages to bring back memories of the good old days of classic handheld gaming. And the music is a true masterpiece in its own right composed by Rich Vreeland (which you can buy in-game if you are a fan of great retro beats like we are).

So if you are a fan of retro platformers, puzzles, pixels, cats (or just the colour green) then you're in for a gaming treat.

We hope you enjoy Cat Astro Phi and we’ll see you next week for some more Nitrome Pixel Love. ;0)

Well hello again Nitromian’s and welcome back to another addition of Mondays Pixelove. Today’s nostalgic pixel feast goes by the name of Enough Plumbers a somewhat eerily familiar plumber platformer by Glen Forrester and Arthur Lee.

Hang on a minute...Isn’t that??? I hear you cry as you glance at the screen shots.

Well both yes and no... Although this may seem like a simple clone of everybody’s favourite fat plumber platformer at first glance. Appearances can be deceiving; there is a neat little twist!

...Every time you pick up a coin a brand new plumber is thrown into the mix. The upside to this is that you now control a small army of Mario’s and now have multiple hits at your disposal. Unfortunately the downside to all that is that all of the plumbers move in unison to the same key commands. And with plenty of challenges scattered throughout the game controlling all of them at once can be both a challenging and dangerous feat indeed.

Be prepared to be both amused and enraged at this cleverly crafted little timewaster.

Until next week Nitromeians Enjoy. =0)

Well Nitromians, it's that time of the week again.

We know it has been a little light in terms of news in our blog this week, although you will be happy to hear that we have all been very busy with current projects.

We'll try and bring you more Nitrome goodness next week, so until then, have a great weekend everyone! :)

Hey Nitromians it’s another busy Monday morning over at the Nitrome towers HQ. It’s a good job that our next showcase pixel love game is all about Multitasking then is it?

Duo Tasking a game by DigiCroc is a cleaver little platformer with a nifty puzzle twist.

You take control of pixel robot, who’s task is to collect all the coins on stage whist avoiding anything red. However (and here is the cleaver bit) not only do you control the platform robot, but a big red laser at the same time....Wait, WHAT?!?

As you move the robot from left to right, your laser will move from top to bottom. Both of them are vulnerable to damage, and the robot even is killed by your lasers  which makes for some interesting duel action puzzles.

For all you Multitasking experts out there, who feel like they can juggle more things at once. there is a ‘hard’ mode for you to try If you want to ramp up the difficulty even further.

Play Duo Tasking: Click Here!

Enjoy and we’ll see you next week for some more Pixel Love.
