Hey there, North America! We know we don’t see much of you these days, what with you being all the way over there on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean and stuff. Anyway, we just thought we’d drop you a line to remind you that we love you. And we also wanted to let you know that Fluidity: Spin Cycle will be reduced to $7.99 in the 3DS eShop until next Thursday, because you’re worth it. Just search for Fluidity: Spin Cycle in the eShop, or scan the QR code on the right with your 3DS to go straight to the store page! If this your first time experiencing the game, we hope you enjoy it!

But the slow invasion of the world’s electronic devices by our sneaky little clones doesn’t stop there – from today, Stealth Bastard Deluxe will be available to Mac and Linux users on Steam!

As the list of ways to play Stealth Bastard grows, so your list of excuses for not owning a copy dwindles further into nothingness. If a lack of Mac and Linux support has been holding you back, now’s the perfect time to treat yourself – Stealth Bastard Deluxe will be 50% off in the Steam store for a whole week.

That goes for the PC version too, so if for some reason your PC game collection is missing this vital title, do yourself a favour and grab a bargain. The DLC level pack The Teleporter Chambers and the soundtrack are 50% off too!

Hello! It brings me great pleasure to announce that the renaming competition for Stealth B**stard, our wonderfully nefarious stealth-puzzle-platformer, was a complete success! The competition is now closed! Rather than picking just one of our favourite entries, we’ve chosen two and fused them together to create one ultimate, unified gaming title:

Stealth Inc: A Clone in the Dark. They were all worthy titles, but there could be only one… well, two!

I hope you are all as excited as we are for our new name and that you enjoy the new screenshots accompanying this blog post! Be sure to stay tuned for more updates as we head towards our Summer release!

You can also discover a new story in the Benjamin’s Flight level pack, which will be debuting exclusively on PS3 and PS Vita. Join the impetuous Benjamin in his quest to unearth a great secret during the events leading up to Thomas’s emergence, and take control of TWA’s most exciting ability yet.

Ahead of the Game’s surprise containment fields are designed to keep your blood pressure up. As if having an army of ruthless robots stalking you wasn’t enough, now you’re being chased by a chain of energy fields which, if you’re standing in the wrong place at the wrong time, will make your body be everywhere and nowhere all at once in zero seconds flat. It hardly seems fair.

If this level’s still giving you grief, prepare to have that grief rubbed in your face. Hamish Lockwood, one of Stealth Bastard Deluxe’s level designers, is here to show everyone how it’s done in this this terrifying speed run. While he admits that he can complete the level faster than this, Hamish reminds us that doing so will likely get our little clone seen by a turret, causing him to miss out on that all-important S-Rank.

We love a good speed-run – if you’re one of the elite few who can do better than this, let us see you in action by linking to a video in the comments. And if you’re convinced that 7-6’s difficulty level pales in comparison to another level, let us know! We’re thinking about recording more dev speed-runs in the near future, and we’d like to feature the levels you want to see.

If you’ve not yet heard of Stealth Bastard, it’s our deadly stealth platform game with a fast paced twist! Following your birth in a cloning lab, you find yourself trapped in a vast and overwhelming network of dastardly chambers, replete with vicious, yet hilarious, booby traps and deranged robots! Your task is simple; stay out of sight and get to the exit. Persevere to the bitter end and you might just discover the secrets of this vicious world!

We like to look at Stealth Bastard as stealth gaming without the waiting. Gone are the days of hanging around in a locker or a conveniently placed, human sized crate! The mechanical foes of our stealth world are much less forgiving, instantly eviscerating you or your fellow captives on sight!

The game boasts brilliantly crisp visuals, an abundance of character, tight controls and a steady difficulty curve that gradually ramps up across 80 levels, spread over 8 unique worlds. Additional features such as un-lockable gadgets, speedrun leaderboards and a level editor gives the game unlimited replay value!

With stages taking anywhere between 30 seconds and 10 minutes to complete, plus tons of secrets to discover, we think our game will really be coming home for PS3 and PS Vita!

This is all very exciting! But there’s more… we’d like to present our fans with an opportunity to be a part of Stealth Bastard’s journey to PlayStation. We want to rename Stealth Bastard to something less profane… it’s just too rude!

We therefore want you to have a go at naming the PlayStation versions – if you think you’ve got the perfect profanity-free solution to our naughty title, we want to hear from you!

If you’ve got a great idea for a new title, head on over to our site and submit it to us! If you suggest the winning name, we’ll give you a spot in the credits, a copy of the game when it’s finished, plus we’ll throw in a PS Vita as well! Not bad, eh?!

The closing date is 14^th April 2013, so drop on by to http://www.curve-studios.com/win-a-ps-vita without delay to submit your ideas!

We decided that the solution to this problem was to release Stealth Bastard EP – a collection of tracks from the original game that we felt were too good not to get their own release. These tracks have been remastered by our very own music man Ricky Honmong and are now available on Bandcamp for a very reasonable 99p. If you felt as though your Stealth Bastard music collection was incomplete, this is the answer to your problem!

As an added bonus, we’ve decided to give a free copy of the EP to anyone who was nice enough to make a donation to us for Stealth Bastard back in the days when the free version reigned. If you were one of those people, you should have received an email from us containing a download code – contact us on admin@curve-studios.com if you haven’t and we’ll sort you out.

If you’re not one of those people, you can still buy the EP on Bandcamp now, or revisit this interview from last year in which Ricky talks about the creative process behind Stealth Bastard’s tunes.

Sony only accept the best games onto the Plus service, and we think you’ll find that Thomas Was Alone is no exception. You can read more about Thomas’s inclusion in Plus on the PlayStation blog.

Thomas Was Alone will be available on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita on 23^th April (US) and 24^th April (EU).

Oh, and the soundtrack is half price all week too!

We might be giving away the odd DLC code over on the Stealth Bastard Twitter account during the sale, so do pop in if you’d like to get your hands on some teleporty goodness.
