Hey Nitromians,
Take a look at this great piece of fan art by Koficup over on Deviant art. It's a huge picture of Flash Cat riding his trusty errrm... green buggy, beetle, robot cockroach, thingy?
Thanks for your hard work Koficup, it’s fantastic.
We love receiving fan art so please keep sending them in and we will feature our favourites on the blog.
Hi Nitromians!
We've got a great Pixel Love game for you today, Cathode Raybits!
WARNING: There is some profanity from the outset of this game so play at your own discretion!
If you enjoyed playing Mega Man, we think you'll really like this one. The artwork looks fantastic and the sounds are authentic to the era, giving us some real nostalgia. Be warned, this game is really difficult! :)
Have fun everyone, we'll bring you another Pixel Love game next week!
Hi Nitromians,
Today's Pixel Love game is My First Quantum Translocator by Cellar Door Games.
You play as a test applicant testing out the Quantum Translocator 4300 (QT 4300). The test controller "Steve" guides you through a multitude of tests. Shortly after the tutorialized levels, things kind of go up a gear. We don't want to spoil anything for you though!
The main idea here is to use your momentum coupled with the quantum translocator and the environment to solve the puzzles. Some of these puzzles are real head scratchers. Once you understand the basics of how to navigate, you'll be given even harder tests!
This is quite a challenging game, making it very satisfying when you beat the puzzles.
Have fun, we'll bring you another pixel love game next week.
Today's Pixel Love game is Clockwork Cat, a game made by Patrick Traynor in 48 hours for Ludum Dare "10 Seconds" theme.
This game makes very clever use of the passage of time. We know that this one is short, but we really feel that it shows a lot of promise in its concept and deserves to be highlighted. This game both looks and plays great.

Have fun, we will see you next week for more Pixel Love!
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)
