For a limited time, you can now get Icebreaker: A Viking Voyage for free on iOS thanks to AppTurbo's 'App of the Day'!
Have fun Nitromians!
Yup, it's our long-lovable pup from Silly Sausage!
This version includes a complete re-imagining of the original game elements and mechanics, it is coming to mobile/web, and it is NOT endless!
That's right, although we really love the possibilities endless titles can bring to a gaming experience, we are still making level based games!
So this is good news for anyone that really enjoys our completable games :)
We just wanted to wish you all a very merry Christmas. Also, check out this great piece of fanart by Caroline Chicarelli, we think it is awesome!
While you're here, why not go and check out your avatar collection, you might find a present or two, Merry Christmas! :)
Have a lovely day everyone!
Hi Nitromians!
We hope you are all enjoying the holiday festivities. Be sure to stay tuned over the Christmas period and follow us into the new year where we will be bringing you plenty of news on brand new stuff (including games) that we have in the works!
So, what do you think we have got lined up for you in 2015?
Let us know in the comments below!
We are thrilled that Pocket Gamer have had such a wonderful experience playing Platform Panic giving it their heralded gold award and a solid 9/10, not bad!

We hope you have all been having fun with this game so far. We'd love to hear of anyone that has managed to score 40+ because we all know what an achievement that is!
Only four more sleeps until christmas, Woohoo!
How is your avatar collection coming along? We hope you are all having as much fun as we had finding fun hiding places for them!
Well, as always, keep a look out for more avatars, and most importantly, have fun everyone!
Hi Nitromians!
We have just released a rather festive update for Endless Doves on the Web, iOS and Android versions!
We hope you like the new additions.
Hi Nitromians!
We are going to be introducing the account updates soon and should also be bringing with them... Status updates!
The status updates will be a great tool to tell others a little bit about yourself or to just impart some wisdom on people that pass by your profile page. We have completely overhauled the profile page and the way you can interact with features. You will also get to see other peoples avatar pages to see what they have unlocked, or to see what is possible to collect!
Something we are really happy with is the notification/top-profile panel upgrade. As you may have seen from Thursday's post image, we are streamlining your approach to account usability. You'll get an overview of all new things that are related to your profile and interactions (comment replies, avatars, messages, friend requests).
So now, no matter wherre you are on the site, you'll get to see anything new that happens by checking out the top-right profile box. Oh, and it will update even if you happen to be playing a game. You won't need to leave the game page in order to see notifications tick up.
Well, I guess what we are trying to say is that there is a lot of added functionality to expect. As soon as we feel we are ready to start rolling out the update, we will let you all know!
Until then, as always, happy gaming!
Great news Nitromians,
Platform Panic is coming out next week on Android, iOS and our site and we couldn't be more excited about it. It's going to be seriously AWESOME!
Check out this vine we have just put together of us playing :)
If you turn on the sound you can also catch an ear full of love from a new musician Eirik Suhrke. (best known for the music in Ridiculous fishing, Spelunki and Super Crate box).
Have a great weekend everyone, see you next week!
Hi Nitromians!
Well, it certainly has been a while since we last spoke about the account updates that we are working on. There has been so much going on here at Nitrome that we just wanted to point out that the features are actively being worked on and should be live soon!
So on that note, I thought I'd talk in a little bit more detail about them.
We have covered the upcoming features briefly in a previous post, so chances are, you know what is expected. One of the cool new features that will be live in the improved system involve comments!
Firstly, comment spoilers!
This new feature will allow you to actively let other users know that there is possibly a spoiler in your comment. This will involve the other users actively clicking a button in order to view your comment! Another benefit to this is that, if a user forgets about having a spoiler in their comment, the community at large can have the power to report comments as containing a spoiler. So if enough people think the comment has a spoiler, the system will flag it for moderation, more on moderation that in a little bit.
Also, we are going to give you the option in your account to turn off game comments! This will be great for those of you that just want to focus on the game itself, or those that just don't want a game spoilt!
So, onto the Moderators!
A lot of people have been asking us about moderators and I thought we'd address it in this post. Comments will be highlighted differently when a user is a moderator, in order to better identify people that are actively helping contribute to a clean Nitrome community and gaming environment.
Moderators will be selected via an "invitation only" process. This is to better screen those that we feel would be a great fit for the role. Although we will have every faith in the moderators we choose, any mods that are seen to be abusing their power will have their mod privileges removed. It's only fair :)
We'll bring you more on the accounts updates and features soon, until then, happy gaming!
