Ladies and gentlemen we are very proud to introduce to you our 100th game...
Play one player or two player co-op and bring down Nitrome. Spot the characters and weapons from our 99 previous titles.
Take down 10 bosses, play through 100 levels, but be warned even when you've completed the game you may not have seen all the levels!
We've worked hard to get this release out as soon as we possibly could, so if there are any bugs, as always please let us know and we'll fix them asap.
Enjoy this frantic blast of a game, and don't forget to read our previous post if you need help in the scoring system.
Thanks all... have fun! :0)

Hi Nitromians,
An interview with Mat has been published over at Startfrag.com in which he explains such things as how Nitrome started out, what we are currently up to now and more.
It's great reading for anyone interested in Nitrome or Flash game development!

Hi Nitromians,
This will with any luck be our final update before the release of Nitrome Must Die. In this update we wanted to give you a brief glimpse of the scoring system for the game and explain how it works and why we hope it will add replay value to the game. At the end of each level you get a score based on the number of coins you collected from the enemies you killed. You are then given the choice to bank that score or gamble it in exchange for a multiplier on future score should they continue to not lose a level. The multiplier increases by 1 each time you gamble without banking. If you lose a level any unbanked score is wiped out so it is about playing it safe or risking it all. …….it’s a little bit like the weakest link TV show.
Let’s run through two examples to show the potential benefit of risking that score for multipliers.
Playing Safe:
Floor 1 the player banks their score of 100…total banked score: 100, Unbanked Score: 0, Multiplier x0
Floor 2 the player banks their score of 100…total banked score: 200, Unbanked Score: 0, Multiplier x0
Floor 3 the player banks their score of 100…total banked score: 300, Unbanked Score: 0, Multiplier x0
At this point they have 300 points in total banked score.
Gambling with success:
Floor 1 the player gambles their score of 100… total banked score: 0, Unbanked Score: 100, Multiplier x1
Floor 2 the player gambles their score of 100… total banked score: 0, Unbanked Score: 200, Multiplier x2
Floor 3 the player banks their score of 100… total banked score (before the multiplier): 300, Unbanked Score: 0, Multiplier x3
At this point they have 900 points (300 x 3 because of the multiplier bonus) in total banked score.

Hi Nitromians!
Our upcoming game Nitrome Must Die (the 100th game) is getting very close to completion now and we are still hoping to have it out this week.
In the meantime we thought we would wet your appetite with a shot from one of the boss rounds. This particular boss is the Cheese Dreams moon which has been infected by the Parasite!
This is just one of the ten bosses in the game!

Good day all, hope you had a good weekend.
It's been a few days since we released the Nitrome Must Die preview so we thought we’d keep you all in the loop with regards to this very special release!
Firstly, it's not being released today... boo!
However we're not far off now, just tweaking the levels and putting in the sound effects. It's coming together nicely but we didn't want to rush it out when we're so close to the finished game. So we're just buying a little more time to make sure the game is as good as it can be.
We don't know the exact day we'll be releasing it, but rest assured we will put it out as soon as we can!
A lot of time and hard work has gone into this game and we hope you have loads of fun when you get to play it... so all that's left to say is...
Be patient, it's coming, not long to go now, Austin and Justin are coming for you!
Hi Nitromians,
There is a cool Flash article over at Dangerarcade.com about Adobe dropping support for Flash on mobile devices. Mat was asked his for opinion about the mobile device market on this article.
If you want to find out more about this topic and the effects it has on flash game development, this article is a great read.

Special mentions go to John Niemann who set up a petition called 'Nitrome must live'. There was also some great email support such as the image we received 'Nitrome Must Die Must Die' from Matthew Killick.

Hi Nitromians!
The Mochis Award Show is now taking your game nominations to find the best flash games of 2011!
This is a great chance for you to choose your favourite flash games and help the developers out by nominating them for the award!
If you would like to nominate a Nitrome game for an award, feel free!
It says on the site that Mat will be a judge this year. If a Nitrome game gets nominated and goes through to the final selection, Mat won't be a judge... just to clarify - as he might have an unfair bias ;)
Voting will start once the game nominations have been narrowed down into the finalists... fingers crossed we might be there!
Hi Nitromians,
We hope that you’ve all had a great Halloween. We’re working very hard to bring you the 100th Nitrome Game! It has been in the making for quite some time now and it’s something quite special.
We’ll probably tease you a bit more up until the games release, so stay tuned but the release is not that far off!
