A year ago, we pressed a button and BAM!:
Blocks That Matter was released on the Xbox Live Indie Games channel.
Well, technically only Guillaume pressed the button cause I had some problems to solve with my apartment at this time.

Anyway, tonight it’s my turn to press a button and BAM!:
Blocks That Matter is (still) available on Xbox Live Indie Games channel, but it is now priced 1$/80MSP (instead of 3$/240MSP) until the end of May, something like that.

Your attention, please,

Blocks That Matter is “Today’s Game” deal on Steam with a 66% discount.
It means the game can be purchased at 1,69$ / 1,69€ during the next 24h.

More than 200 Community Levels have been published by players/creators since last Christmas so it has been quite difficult to choose only 5 levels to feature this time. But it’s our duty! Here they are :

Short Fuse – by Krypton
High Jump – by FRiZ
Shoot The Big Mama – by OrcShaman2000
Chipping Away – by Krypton
Falling 3 Really Bad – by Chacham

Back in 2011, we’ve shared with you some info about how not-so-well Blocks That Matter sold on Xbox Live Indie Games.

Since then, many things happened :
- we’ve released BTM on Steam in August
- BTM won the Dream.Build.Play 2011 Challenge few weeks after
- and the game has been part of the Humble Voxatron Debut in November

In the same time, more and more people heard about it and what was a small game lost between WhateverCraft and WhateverZombie on XBLIG became a nice indie game (according to players and journalists) on PC.
But how well, exactly, did Blocks That Matter sell?

Let’s unveil the great BTM infographic!

Hi sailors from all over the world,

Some of you wrote us messages in bottles asking if they can translate Blocks That Matter in german, russian and some other very popular languages we know nothing about. But it was impossible to do it properly until…now !

Guillaume created a nice tool that will allow you to naviguate the game dialogs simply and make translation easier. The only thing you need to do is to download the tool and follow the instructions contained in README_DialogViewer.txt.
