<p>Area5 gave us <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?gl=GB&#038;v=p41EvYBAZy0">a lovely section on CO-OP</a>. There&#8217;s like 9 minutes on Eufloria here. It&#8217;s really an honour to have this kind of time with the ex-1up crew. Great stuff, thanks guys! I think you missed out on some of the interface basics though <img src='http://www.dyson-game.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Firebrand Radio have a review of Eufloria <a href="http://www.firebrandradio.com/pressstart/">in episode 6 of Just Press Start</a> <img src='http://www.dyson-game.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Great show guys <img src='http://www.dyson-game.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  <strong><em>&#8220;Eufloria is well worth the price for such a unique and enjoyable experience.&#8221;</strong></em><br />

<p>Eurogamer gave us <a href="http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/eufloria-review?page=1">a three-page-long review</a>, written by Jon Blyth. It is fantastic to see mainstream news sites offer this much space to humble indie games like ours. Blyth rated us 5/10, although he said that depending on your point of view it could be as low as a 4 or as high as a 7. Quotes:<em><strong> &#8220;A beautiful, thoughtful curiosity.&#8221;; &#8220;It&#8217;s an experience that you&#8217;ll enjoy, rather than a coherent and satisfying game.&#8221;</strong></em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img alt="" src="http://www.dyson-game.com/img/Launch_Graphic_480_243.jpg" title="Liftoff!" class="alignnone" width="480" height="243" /> </p>
<p><strong>Hello friends</strong>, how are you? We are tired but very excited as after 18 months or so we have finally arrived at the launch day of what is now known as <strong>Eufloria!</strong></p>
<p>As this blog post goes up the game should be released, or nearly released on <a href="http://store.steampowered.com/app/41219/">Steam</a> and Direct2Drive (<a href="http://www.direct2drive.com/8553/product/">US</a>, <a href="http://www.direct2drive.co.uk/8554/product/Buy-Eufloria-(formerly-known-as-Dyson)-UK-Download">UK</a>), with additional distributors and sales on our own site to follow soon. Hopefully it all goes well, but if there are glitches, please <strong>don’t panic but report them to us</strong> in the <a href="http://www.dyson-game.com/smf/index.php?board=4.0">tech support &amp; trouble shooting area of our forum</a>. We may be able to resolve them swiftly!</p>
<p>If you have other types of feedback, please feel free to browse the <a href="http://www.dyson-game.com/smf/index.php?board=4.0">general forum</a> for a good spot to talk about it. We also have a <a href="http://www.facebook.com/search/?q=dyson&#038;init=quick#/pages/Dyson/74822822967?ref=ss">facebook page</a>, and a <a href="http://twitter.com/RudolfKremers">Twitter Thang</a>, or just send us an email. <img src='http://www.dyson-game.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Either way, we want to thank you: the players of the game, for giving it a go, we really did try to provide you with a worthwhile experience. <em>In fact</em> there is more to come, as the modding side of things will start to take shape, and we will look into things like achievements as well. The old modding stuff gave us loads of free levels, and the new LUA powered modding framework is WAY more powerful. Expect all kinds of funky things that will add a new dimension to the game.</p>
<p><strong>A few more things:</strong><br />
Linux and Mac users don’t despair, we will try to sort something for you, just let us get this launch thing out of the way and then we can see what we can do.</p>
<p>For those who prefer to buy the game from us directly, this will be possible soon, we just need to plug the e-commerce solution in, and we will update the site as well of course. We have gone flat out to be able to release the game today, so this stuff will follow after launch.</p>
<p>Do you like the <a href="http://www.myspace.com/milieu">music</a>? Go <a href="http://www.milieu-music.com/">tell Brian Grainger aka Milieu</a>! We will have some cool news about the soundtrack soon as well, so keep an eye out!</p>
<p>Also a warm hug and many thanks to all the amazing people who helped us test and translate the game, and family, loved ones and friends who have supported us throughout.</p>
<p>Right, enough babbling, have a great time playing the game!</p>
<p>Rudolf and Alex</p>

Hello all! With the <a href="http://store.steampowered.com/app/41219/">Steam Pre-Order</a> under way as well now (YAY 25% off!) I wanted to emphasize an important point:<br />
<strong>The Official Demo has not yet been released!</strong><br />
I suspect that many people don&#8217;t realize that the current demo is the old Independent Games Festival showfloor build. Which is not really representative of the current quality of the game and all its new content, UI, play modes, AI, and tons of other things. (We are still very proud of the old demo though)<br />
We will release an official demo soon, one that includes many of the improvements in how the game plays. This will most likely be on the day of the full commercial release.</br><br />
Hope that clarifies things!</p>
