We are working on remasters of some of our series for Steam and Console. We dub them Nitrome Classics. It will be more like individual game series though not massive bundles. We are making them from scratch as Flash is dead so its months of work for each to redo.

Happy #SilkSong day everyone!

Okay the bar has been raised. So #MouseWork will now only be officially successful if it crashes the eShop on release? ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿญ๐Ÿ‘Š

Look mom, we are in a magazine!

P.s We will show some more when we get hold of an issue (its got lots of mouse related things inside) ๐Ÿฅฐ

Yup and Mouse work isnโ€™t even a port but a brand new game developed to highlight mouse mode on switch 2.

Its disheartening. But I guess we need to be patient and hope the delay dosent last for many months longer.
