Hi All!
for those of you into our Rust Bucket game....Good News! The first big update for the game is out now!
It contains new levels set in a new theme with new monsters and traps to tackle.
Endless mode has also had some love. New monsters, a new theme after graveyard and you can now spend coins to continue a little further.
We hope you all enjoy it! Currently were working on update 2!
Hi Nitromians,
there is now a cool new update to our Go Pogo game live on the app stores! Yay!
It features 10 new exteme stages for those of you brave enough to try and beat! There are also 10 new characters to unlock! Hooray! We also tuned a few of the early bits to help users get into the game a little easier. We hope you enjoy the update.
Now we havent posted much recently....sorry. So time for a little update on whats to come next!
Rust Bucket update should be hitting next week to the App Stores!
Ultimate Briefcase should follow the week after launching in the first week of Feb (Sorry I know we said January before but it slipped slightly).
Now your all due some web games and we promised them for January too. We will try to get all three....some may end up being Feb though.
Have a great weekend everybody!
Hi Nitromians,
With Christmas upon us were starting to look to the New Year. Next on Nitromes release list will be our first ever published game 'Ultimate Briefcase' by the very tallented 'Quite Fresh'.
Quite Fresh is a new studio started by Stefan Ahlin who worked as an artist on many of Nitromes classic games such as Steamlands, Nitrome Must Die and Canary to name just a few!
The game is not submitted yet but it is wrapping up nicely, so the hope is that we will launch the game in January!
The game itself is super cool with literally a TON of content to unlock and every unlockable element has new gameplay be it a new character, power up or new location. There is also an awesome way that the backstory is slowely unlocked as you play too, which ties nicely to the characters that unlock and other elements.
More on this game soon!
Hi Nitromains,
our Go Pogo game proved to be a big success so in celebration we have been working on a little update for the game which will be coming out in January. The update contains several things:
10 new 'extreme' levels for those who have completed the game!
10 new characters to unclock including a certain mammal/amphibian hybrid whos game helped inspire the concept of this game.
Also there have been minor tweeks for early levels for a smoother difficulaty curve so if you were having problems getting into the game this may be for you!
Happy Christmas Nitromains,
With the holidays in full swing it feels appropriate to write a little post wishing you all a great time, to act as a round up for the year and set the sights for the year to come.
So this year you may have noticed we took a decidedly mobile turn. Some people think this is great but we recognise that for others they wish we would just drop all this mobile nonsense and go back to the good old days of browser games.
If you're in the later group we are sorry, but our current future seems to be firmly in the mobile market for the moment. Following a huge decline in the browser side of things over the last few years we had our most profitable year to date! That's some turn around, i'm sure you will agre…
READ MOREIt has been a LONG time since we showed anything on "project jump" as we put it to one side for a bit whilst working on some other projects. We have been back working on it for a little while now though and it is really starting to take shape.
There is a pretty big idea behind this one: You play a new level EVERY DAY! The level itself is not random and there is an end goal, but in order to achieve this we have built an engine that makes levels that are suitably varied every day.
More on "Project Jump soon! ;)
Hey Nitromains,
Our latest turn-based puzzler Rusbucket is getting its first update in January. We are putting the finishing touches to a new level pack and some new endless content. Our plan is to submit the update soon after our return in the New Year.
We have already committed to a second update after this which will again add more levels, but will focus on something really cool and different other than just new baddies.
Grab it on iOS!
We are really pleased with the feedback from players so far. We'd be very interested to hear ho far you've managed to get in the Endless dungeon or any ideas you might have.
Stay tuned for more news on this and our upcoming games soon. =D
Hey Nitromians,
Great news! Our turn based puzzler Rustbucket is OUT NOW 'Free' for your devices.
Get to grips with the campaign mode and then take your new found skills and dive straight into the endless dungeon for the ultimate roguelike challenge.
Grab it on iOS!
Grab it on Android!
Help us out by leaving nice reviews and ratings (if nothing else, it gives us a warm fuzzy feeling inside)
We are currently finishing the first update to the game which you can expect to roll out in the early new year. We have lots more planned as well... this is just the beginning. ;)
SURPRISE!
What better way to get us all in the xmas mood than an update to our fast and frantic game Roller Polar!
Unlock new bears in the Bearwear shop and take them out for a roll down the mountain, who wants to play as Bare Bear?
We have made a few other gameplay tweaks aswell to smooth out the difficulty curve. Theres gold to collect for extra challenge, some obstacle pattern changes, the characters each have there own wails, growls and squeaks and even the annoying eagle has had an upgrade.
For those of you who missed it the first time round. You can grab it FREE for your device here!
Enjoy =)
Hey Nitromians,
We are very pleased to hear that Gunbrick has been awarded one of the best games of the year on the iOS appstore. There are lots of truly amazing games being featured with Laura Croft Go taking the #1 top spot. Go and check some of them out, we are sure you wont be dissapointed.
For anyone who hasn't tried Gunbrick yet take apples advice and play one of the best games of the year. For all of you that have, a huge thankyou for your support. We are really chuffed to bits.
Get it on iOS!
Hey nitromians,
We are all nursing some rather sore heads this morning after an early festive chrismas party last night. Check out the group mugshot of the Nitrome crew (and partners).

Hey Nitromians,
Our hero Rust Bucket and his turn based friend's are in a spot of bother after being ambushed by a pack of slimes.
You can pick up allies and use them to get you out of a tight squeeze in the endless dungeon and level mode. They mimic Rust Buckets movement so can be used to strategically gain advantage in battle, or hold down multi-switches or save villagers. In Fact they can pretty much do whatever you can... yeah we know, sounds useful doesn’t it?
The current plan (all going well) is to release Rust Bucket before xmas. In-fact its already been submitted to the stores and is awaiting review.
More Rust Bucket hype soon. ;)
Hey nitromians,
Gopogo our free ultra hard platform bouncer is OUT NOW on your devices for Android and iOS. Be sure you check out the AWESOME music by Eirik Suhrke who's titles include Ridiculous Fishing, Spelunky and most importantly our very own Gunbrick and Platform Panic.

Some of you may have noticed the lack of news on the blog lately, rest assured it's not because we are taking it easy. Far from it, we are working harder than ever making a bunch of brand new games for you to get your gaming mitts on. We don't always get the time every week to fill you in with lots of news and teasers. We try to post as much as we have time for, the rest of the time we are hard at work.
Make sure to follow us on Twitter (@nitrome) as-well as our blog for all the latest news, info and gossip.
Happy gaming

p.s Has anyone managed to unlock any of the games many nitrome cameo's yet?
Hey nitromians,

First off our next game Gopogo is out soon, in-fact it's going to be hitting the stores NEXT WEEK and we couldn't be more pleased with how it turned out.

Great news Niromians,
Our next game is coming out really soon...
In fact, it will be released on stores at some point late NEXT WEEK!
It's not Rust Bucket that we have been talking about recently but rather 'Go Pogo' which has been developing much more quietly behind the scenes. So with that in mind we thought it was time to change all that and break out a quick little Gif for you all to enjoy.
This is taken from one of the levels in the game but there is also an endless mode for the High score chasers amoungst you too.
More info on Gopogo as we get closer to launch next week!
