Linux gamers can get BEEP on Desura now!
Nov 22nd
Desura is a pretty slick distribution channel that has recently become available for Linux. BEEP for linux is now available on Desura.
If you purchased BEEP from a different distributor, but would like to have it on your Desura list, please contact me with proof of your purchase and I’d be glad to send you a key for Desura as a token of my appreciation.
BEEP now on the Mac App-Store
Nov 18th
BEEP was finally approved for sale on the Mac App-store. So if that’s your platform of choice, please head on over there and grab a copy!
A very special thanks to Jason Rice who handled porting BEEP over to the Apple. I wish I could say it was easy, but thanks to his perseverance and downright stubbornness, Mac-owners now have access to our unique little game. Thank you Jason, I know lots of Mac-gamers out there will be stoked to be able to play BEEP.

Attention Mac-heads!
We’ve got a fresh build of BEEP hot off the compiler and ready for testing! If you’ve got a Mac computer and a wee bit of time, we’d love to hear from you! If you make the cut, you get a free copy of BEEP for Mac. All we ask is that you report any issues you encounter and work with us over email to help resolve them.
Sound fair? Then just send us your email, OS, CPU and GPU specs to support@bigfatalien.com with subject “Mac Beta”.
First people to respond with suitable specs will make the list!
BEEP now available for Gnu/Linux!
Jul 14th
Linux geeks rejoice! We’ve finally made it through the beta testing and BEEP is ready for Gnu/Linux gamers who are itching to get there hands on a modern, physics-based, platformer game!
The game is currently available on the brand-new (and very slick) digital distribution site, Gameolith.com. For all you Ubuntu-freaks, the final build of BEEP has been sent to Canonical and should be in the Ubuntu Software Center very soon.
I have to thank everyone who signed up for the beta testing. It’s been a treat to work with Linux users from across the globe. We received very generous feedback (and even some detailed technical fixes!). Proving once again, that Linux users are pure class.
I am a big supporter of Gnu/Linux and really want to see it become a thriving marketplace for both free software and commercial applications. I hope BEEP finds an audience here and helps to kick-start a wave of indie games on this burgeoning platform.
Sincerely,
Kiaran Ritchie
BEEP is turning Japanese! I really think so.
Jul 7th
Several weeks ago we inked a deal with Japanese indie distributor, PLAYISM to do a full translation of BEEP. This will give us access to the Japanese audience! Considering their history with robots, I think the game will find a happy home in the land of ASIMO and Mechzilla.
The translation is already well underway. So stay tuned for a release announcement very soon.
In the meantime, tell your Japanese friends how they can now play all the latest indie hits in their own language at playism.jp!

Jun 22nd
