Super Motherload now has a series of 6 Trading Cards on Steam!

You can use each set of 6 cards to craft 5 badge levels in sequence. Also included with the Trading Card release are 3 backgrounds, 6 emoticons, and a booster pack.

We're currently working on improved music looping and functionality, as well as saving custom key configurations. These will arrive in a future update.

Let us know what you think of the new Trading Cards, backgrounds, badges and emoticons.

Please note that you will need to select 'Direct 3D' in the Launcher if your video card does not support OpenGL

First of all, we'd like to thank everyone who bought Super Motherload during it's inaugural week on Steam! The level of interest has exceeded expectation, and we've received a lot of excellent feedback and information about the PC version, which has helped us to track down and fix and number of issues faster.

The biggest addition to today's update is Direct3D support; this should allow most Steam users with Intel video cards to play Super Motherload.

We're also aware that players with Radeon cards that do not have Catalyst drivers available to them are experiencing issues; we'd love to hear from you on whether this update addresses "black-screen" issues for you.

We're continuing our laser-focus on making the PC version of Super Motherload a great experience, with a goal of updating the live build frequently.

Thanks for your support!

November 14, 2013

The full soundtrack for Super Motherload is now available for pre-order for just $9, and will be available for download at midnight tonight—the same time Super Motherload launches with the PS4! The press has already shown an overwhelming appreciation for the soundtrack, composed by indie electronic artist Eric Cheng, as one of the highlights of the PS4 launch. You can listen to and pre-order the full soundtrack from Bandcamp here:

Full Super Motherload Soundtrack

"Watch the video above and tell me with a straight face that that music isn’t amazing. I dare you." - Gaming Trend

"It’s like XGen Studios blended Dig Dug and PixelJunk Shooter, added a dash of Cargo Commander, baked it all at 400
degrees for 30 minutes, and drizzled a fantastic soundtrack on top before shoving it all in my mouth." - Game Front

"An amazing eighties soundtrack " - Push Square

"It’s shockingly great ." - Hardcore Gamer

November 5, 2013

We're just 10 days from the launch of Super Motherload and the PlayStation 4, and we couldn't be more excited.

Super Motherload will debut on November 15th in North America and on November 29th in Europe and Latin America and cost just $14.99 USD / €13.99.

If you haven't seen it yet, check out the new Game Play trailer we released recently; the game has come a long way in 12 months.

We also want to ensure that the PC & Mac versions of Super Motherload are developed to the same standard of quality we put into the console versions.

Because of the number of possible system configurations out there, we will need to support a wide variety of hardware and we want to make sure that we do it correctly. Multiplayer also needs to work properly on PC & Mac; we've designed multiplayer for console couch co-op, so we'll need to revisit our design to ensure it works well. This means a bit more development time, but will also give us an opportunity to build more puzzles and add even greater polish so that when we do debut on PC & Mac, the game will be ready.

And most of all, thank-you for your continued loyalty and support over the past 11 years. I hope you're looking forward to Nov 15th as much as we are -- this is for our fans.

July 2, 2013

Steam just let us know that they’ve Greenlit Super Motherload! We are just really really happy. Pumped, even. Many high fives have been thrown around the office today, and we even broke out the special occasion frosty mugs from the freezer.

Thank you all so much for your votes! We have been so impressed with all of the help that we’ve gotten, it was amazing to see people take this into their own hands and promote the heck out of Super Motherload. It was grassroots marketing at its finest and we couldn’t have asked for more dedicated and enthusiastic fans. We have jobs because of people like you, so once again: thank you!

So? Where do we go from here? Well, we are sticking to the current game plan. We’re working on the PS4 version at the moment—getting that all ready to submit, and then finish up the rest of the PS3 version. After the console versions are good to go we’ll move our focus to Steam.

In the meantime we’re looking on a way to clone Steve. Does anyone have any leads on that?


Here’s a nice little mention from Game Trailers

Platforms: PC, Steam, PlayStation 3 & PlayStation 4

"I honestly can't describe why this game is so fun." - Tycho, Penny Arcade

The time has come to embark on an all-new adventure to Mars, with 10 Playable characters, a fully voiced cast, and an all-new storyline.
