Hi Nitromians!
We are pleased to say that Nitrome has been featured in this months edition of Creative Graphics World! It's nice to see the word of Nitrome spreading to the other side of the globe!
It might be hard for some readers to find as its only available in China, but it's very nice all the same!
Hi Nitromians!
We have got a lovely piece of fanart to show you today that is based on our game The Bucket. This Nitromian goes by the alias of 'rukia-senpai' over on deviant art. Thanks for the artwork, it really is great! :D

If you have any fan art you have made about Nitrome please do send it in! We love everything we get sent especially if it is our work applied to something we have never seen before. We will feature the best,
most striking and most unusual pieces in our blog.
We have also got a treat for you today! We were planning on revealing cheat codes for Silly Sausage over the next few weeks, but it seems that they have all been found already and posted in forums... wow, that's people power for you! (or maybe a little bit of cheating ;))
Now that they have surfaced, we felt it's better to just reveal all of them with a description of what they do.
NITROME - Turns grabbable tiles into Cuboy and turns the background pink.
MUSCLES - Hard Mode, one hit and you are out!
CHICKEN - Easy mode, you get five hearts.
FLIPPED - Turns the screen upside down and also affects the background!
DOGMEAT - Enemies speed is doubled!
GRANDPA - Enemies speed is halved!
HOTDOGS - Turn gems into hotdogs!
PRESENT - Bone-us! Bones appear randomly on the level
REVERSE - Your controls will become reversed!
POOMODE - ...Play the game and you will find out :)

Happy gaming!
It's Friday Nitromians, there wasn't alot of posts this week, but we tried to post a few today to make amends. Next week we will kick our butts a little more and get some cool preview together to blow you all away!
Have a great weekend!
Hi Nitromians,
Due to overwhelming demand here is an update on the development of our Super Feed Me game in video form.
The video will provide information on the games status aswell as why the game has been in apparent limbo for so long. It also shows more footage of the game for all those just desperate to see more but please be aware it is all mid dev footage so some areas effects and elements do not look as polished as they will in the final game.
We have tried to cover a lot of the questions asked to us but I’m sure there are many that we have still missed and that even more will be generated from this video.

Thats right Nitromians!
We promised you a game release last Friday and although its a little later than planned due to a few hiccups, here is...
Safely navigate the lovable stretchy dog through the dangers and obstacles that lay ahead! Have you got what it takes? there's only one way to find out!
Also be sure to try and guess the "Game Muscle" codes and watch out for password hints on the blog over the next couple weeks! ;)

Hi Nitromians!
We are happy to see that Test Subject Green is going down very well with you all! Game Pro seems to be taken by our game too! They have written an article reviewing the game.
"Test Subject Green, like all of Nitrome's work, wins you over quickly with its wonderful presentation. Play any of their games for a few minutes and it'll quickly become obvious that they are adoring fans of the 16-bit era." - Game Pro

Even more news for you!
We are absolutely thrilled to get on the mightly IGN site, and even more thrilled that they had such nice things to say about Steamlands.
" ...steamroll through your enemies, leave their rigs in smoldering piles of twisted metal, and then cannibalize any spare parts lying around to make your tank even more awesome." - IGN

Hey Nitromians,
We've now got a video online based around the current iPhone piracy issues.
This topic was covered quite well in a Kotaku article recently that helped to shed further light on the matter. In many of these cases, the pirated material is taken from an original flash game, with its artwork, code and music still intact and then ported to the new device. The video footage shows you a good example of the issue.

Good day to you Nitromians!
We’re pleased to hear that many of you liked Test Subject Green. A lot of you have been asking when the 3rd instalment of the Test Subject series will be coming out. So we wanted to take this opportunity to let you know that it will be done, but the gap will be longer than the one between Test Subject Blue and Test Subject Green.
JK and Markus are developing new games first and then will work on Test Subject …”3”. We do however have a little surprise for you all. We have a smaller Test Subject spin off game coming out in the not too distant future that answers some of your requests! We’ve had a lot of fun making and testing it and we hope you guys will enjoy it too! So watch this space!
Keep having fun gaming!
Hiya Nitromians!
Hope you all had a good weekend. Good news for Test Subject Green… once again the guys at Bytejacker have been gracious enough to include our latest game in their weekly ‘Free Indie Rapid Fire’.
So what are you waiting for? Go check it out… oh and don’t forget to vote! :)
