• Probe 50% Off - 2 February 2021

  Hello everyone! Been a minute since I released the Demo and final update for Probe so I wanted to let everyone know you can get Probe for half off this week! Just $0.99! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1275980/Probe/ I also thought I'd take this moment to update everyone that I am currently still making progress on my next game in the works (TBA). If you want to be the first to hear the official announcements please head over to my blog and subscribe: https://www.natebitgames.com/blog I also make weekly updates on game related and game development related topics. I did miss this last week due some misfortunate events and that will happen from time to time as I am unable to make games full time but I usually try to make up for it in the following weeks post. Some content should hopefully be coming out within the next month or two on my next title granted there aren't any new setbacks.…

• Probe 75% Off! - 24 August 2020

  Hello everyone! Today through next Monday Probe will be on sale to celebrate the last major update for the game that introduced leaderboards and scoring systems for each level and overall score. Check it out and don't forget to leave the game a review, good or bad. All feedback helps me make this and future games better. There will be some minor updates to settings options in the game soon but aside from that I don't have much else planned for the game at the moment. Somewhere down the road I will most likely add more levels and backgrounds but as for now I am ready to move on to developing my next game (TBA). If any bugs are reported they will be fixed ASAP as well. -Nathan Hicks Nate Bit Games http://www.n8bitgames.com/ https://twitter.com/N8Bit_Games

• Probe Has a NEW look! - 25 June 2020

  Hello Everyone! I'm back with another exciting update for Probe! AND to celebrate this during the Steam Summer Sale ... Probe is 75% off through July 9! I have made my own custom backgrounds from a compilation of photo manipulated public domain NASA space photos and custom brushes that are more colorful and of a wider variation than the previous boring star backgrounds to make the levels and main menu a lot more visually interesting. Adding many new alien worlds to the ambiance. I even updated the trailer and screenshots with the new content. Check out the new trailer/screenshots and let me know what you think! I also plan on adding some new levels soon as well!

• Probe Soundtrack Now Available for FREE - 3 June 2020

  Hello everyone! Happy to announce the Probe Soundtrack is now FREE for everyone on steam! Get it here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1336740/Probe_Soundtrack/ Special thank you to RelaxMoods.com and Pixelsphere.org for allowing me to use one of the songs for the soundtrack. It also has been brought to my attention that the in game music sometimes stops after a song ends and new song doesn't play until either retrying a level or continuing to next level. Also has been some reports of the gamepad controls switching action buttons on them after changing control inputs to keyboard and back to gamepad. I am currently working on fixing these issues and should have a patch for that coming out soon. I am back at my day/night job full time so may take me a little longer than previous fixes have but thank you for your patience. -Nathan Hicks Nate Bit Games

• Added New Soundtrack and NEW Enemy Sprites - 27 May 2020

  https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F37277769%2F4377e736d8ab39051eae8e1ae0ffc925a6d80000.png Hello Everyone! ːsteamhappyː I am happy to announce that the Soundtrack Update for Probe has been released and is now live! The game now has 14 tracks (plus the menu music=15) that will play and cycle as you play. However, due to the restrictions of the engine I use, restarting a level will go to the next track. It was either that or listen to the same song start over upon retrying a level. If I find a work around for that I will update it asap. PLUS the soundtrack will be available soon as a FREE DLC to everyone. Don't even need to own the game! Will make another post soon as the soundtrack gets approved by steam and is available for download. Special thanks to PixelSphere.org/RelaxMoods.com for allowing me to use one of their tracks for the soundtrack. The soundtrac…
