The Canadian Indie Bundle Is Here!

October 23, 2012 by Nicholas Vining

Edit: Looks like that’s it folks!  Thanks for spreading the word and helping us promote our awesome country of maple syrup, igloos, and great indie games!

 

We’re in a bundle on Steam right now with a number of other *great* Canadian titles! For only $14.99, you can get Dungeons of Dredmor, and a number of other fabulous indie games featuring everything from Sworcery (whatever that is?) to a bandana-wearing, knife-wielding lunatic, to … some kind of game about quantum waveforms. Quantum physics has never been so exciting!

(look at banner, Michael!)

You get:

  • Dungeons of Dredmor (obviously)
  • Capsized!
  • Shank!
  • Shank 2!
  • Waveform!
  • Superbrothers: Swords and Sworcery EP
  • Space Pirates and Zombies
  • HOARD

Honestly, though, these games are fantastic – as are the wonderful indie devs who made them.  Buy the Canadian bundle today! And Blame Canada!

Alpha release of Starfarer by Fractal Softworks

April 30, 2011 by David Baumgart

Official Friend-of-Gaslamp Alex Mosolov just released the first alpha of his indie space-combat/rpg/sandbox game “Starfarer”, now available to customers who pre-order the game (at half price!).

Congratulations to Alex for shipping this release!

There is some Gaslamp involvement with Starfarer, I should add: All graphics were done by myself (David) and SF’s sound was made by our own Mr. Matthew Steele (who made all the sound and music for Dredmor).

I want to thank Alex for having me work on his game – it’s incredibly fun to draw spaceships and planets and it’s been a project I’ve wanted to do since I was 10 years old. It should be said also that in part Alex has made Gaslamp Games and Dredmor possible by hiring me to work on his game.

We also owe a lot of thanks to Alex for helping us test many painfully early in-development versions of Dungeons of Dredmor.

So best of luck to him on sales and the future of Starfarer and Fractal Softworks!

You can pre-order Starfarer from the Fractal Softworks page here. It runs on Windows, Mac OS, and Linux.

You can read more about the game’s features and planned development in the features section and the faq as well as follow development on the Fractal Softworks blog (which I occasionally post to as well). Additional screenshots and videos can be found in the media section.
