Update #77: MAGFest This Week & Full Release On February 8th

The official Steam launch has been pushed to February 8th. Here's what that means for everybody:

• For those of you who will be at MAGFest in MD on January 18th, the game will be fully playable and we will be selling DRM-free copies of the game as originally planned.
  
• For backers who selected Steam, this means that Pixel Noir will be launching on Steam Thursday, February 8th instead of tomorrow 1/18 as previously communicated. The extra time is needed to finalize the launch discount on Steam that we promised in our last update.

As always we're happy to answer questions in the comments or DM's. Hang on just a bit longer -we're nearly there!


As you can imagine, for launch, we are coordinating with Press, Influencers, and Streamers. If you fall into any of those categories, we’d love to work with you! Click here for our Press Kit. Streamers: we are setting up a streaming schedule, so please be sure to tag #pixelnoir on social media and coordinate with us through the email address [email protected] if you do plan on streaming the game!

We will have a limited supply of merch at MAGFest. However, you Kickstarter backers that stop by the booth will be able to get either the DRM-Free game/OST, the arranged album, a Pixel Noir T-Shirt, or all three (depending on pledge levels). Here's what we'll be selling at MAGFest....


Pixel Noir (DRM-free version) & complimentary 60 track OST for $25 ...Boo-yah!
Pixel Noir T-Shirts! for $20. That's right, you too can rock this sweet, noir aesthetic!
Pixel Noir Arranged Album for $10 (exclusively for MAGFest)! Some of the arranged artists are playing at MAGFest such as Lacey Johnson.


For display and demoing the full game (but not for sale) we'll have two fully operational Pixel Noir arcade Cabinets!!!

The team was pretty excited about this one. We built and 3D-printed the parts ourselves and we can't wait to debut it!
