Yes, you read correctly. Another production run of the reprint edition of Pier Solar and the Great Architects is on the way. This time, we won't have pre-orders, so the game will ship ASAP after the game is paid for. We aim to start orders around October or November, but, as usual, nothing is certain at the moment. More news will follow soon!

PS. This is our 100th blog post. Woohoo! DS.

Martin shows hs new toy! The White Element Pier Solar Sega Nomad!!!
Dear you!
Perhaps you remember the contest we had a few months ago, which had a special custom made Sega Nomad as the prize? No? OK, whatever. Here, the winner Martin (who traveled all around the world showing off our game - see a previous blog entry) presents his precious:
As you can see, it looks totally awesome, all thanks to the brilliant mind of Fonzie, Pier Solar programmer and producer. But, that is not all. The screen is also replaced with a less battery sucking one by Tiido, Pier Solar sound programmer and hardware designer.
Soon, we have news.
Best regards,

The future of Pier Solar
Dear fans of Pier Solar,
Every day, we get emails from people who wishes to buy our game. We are very thankful and honoured for that! Previously, we had decided not to produce more copies of Pier Solar for various reasons. But not long ago, we were given an offer we can't refuse. So Pier Solar's reprint edition may be available again in the near future. However, nothing is certain. We'll let you know when there is more information to be had.
Best regards,

Pier Solar @ Retrospelsmässan
Hi,
About 1½ week ago, was at Retrospelsmässan in Gothenburg, a retro game expo in Sweden. I met lots of nice people and sold perhaps the last seven copies of the reprint edition of Pier Solar. The day before, I also met Zable Fahr, the composer and character designer of our great game. I could go into great detail and rant, but right now I'm very tired and lazy, so it won't happen unless someone bugs me a lot about it.
Best wishes,

A Winner is Martin!
Congratulations Martin and hello to the rest of you!
Martin Brunet traveled all over the world - from Paris, to San Francisco, to Honduras, to Australia, to London and many other places and back - just to display Pier Solar! He placed his sticker on his car, pined his poster at the window of a gameshop and - the "juicy" WM style part - made a Hoston sprite in the game Minecraft which he then printed out and placed at many different places. Among the many great submissions, those by Martin proved to bear the most dedication of all, and therefor the team has decided he is the winner of the Element White Pier Solar Sega Genesis Nomad. A big applause to all who participated in the competition, WaterMelon would like to thank you for that and wish you better luck next time!
Here are a few samples of Martin's submissions:
Next up: two podcast interviews!
Have a good time!
