Flatlined Games is pleased to announce our third game : Rumble in the Dungeon, by Olivier Saffre.
Rumble in the Dungeon will be released in October, during the Essen Spiel'12 Game Fair.
Flatlined games will be present at Essen Spiel'12, in booth 4-216.
Flatlined Games is alive and well. I run Flatlined Games during the evenings and weekends, along with my 'real' job that pays the bills. I am usually reactive on the various boardgames forums, but 'formal' communication on our website is a bit slower.
All money gained from sold games currently goes back into reprinting sold games and developing new games, as well of some money from my 'real' job to speed things up a little. This is a slow build-up process but it is safe and should guarantee that Flatlined Games will continue to operate for a very long time. The luxurious italian car…
We received about a thousand suggestions for naming the robot game!
We selected the suggestion from Rodolphe Perrien to name the game :
Thanks to all and especially to Rodolphe, who will soon receive a small surprise by mail :)
We have received hundreds of suggestions for the name of the game, thank you!
We are in the process of sorting trough the submissions and selecting a definitive name for the game.
Thanks again you are wonderful!
Flatlined Games will release at Essen Spiel 2012 the new game from acclaimed designer Philippe Keyaerts (Vinci, Evo, Smallworld, Olympos).
In the game, players program two robots to harvest gems and bring them back to their bases. Robots don't fight, but they can push each other and of course steal gems.
However, the game has no name yet. We have a few ideas, but I'm sure you have lots of ideas, so we're calling for help.
This is not a contest, but we will of course find a nice way to thank the best entries.
To celebrate this holiday weekend, we've placed an exclusive Dragon Rage Easter Special on our website for you to download.
Defend Esirien and Nurkott against the onslaught of the ferocious giant bunnies, and chase the Dragon Eggs!

We're pleased and sorry at the same time to announce that Rumble in the House has sold out at the publisher level. The initial print run of about 3000 copies sold out in a single quarter!
There's still some stock at distributors and retailers, but they will also eventually sell out.
We are working on a reprint, due end Q1 2012.
The Dice Tower's very own Tom Vasel put a video review of Rumble in the House online :)

Ludofact just let us know that Rumble in the House left their assembly line.
We should receive them in a couple days.
It's a beautiful baby and the box is so filled that they couldn't close it completely. Have no fears, however, as all components fit inside the box once unpunched.
The Opinionated gamers website has published a review of Dragon Rage.

Our supplier is late with the production of Rumble in the House. They were to deliver the game for the 15th or September, and at the time of this writing it is not yet out of the factory.
Our supplier tells us that the game will be available in time for the Essen game show, which is of course the least we expect at this point. We wish to offer our apologies to the retailers awaiting the game's release for this delay. There's actually little else we can do at this point.
An article explaining the design process for the Dragon Rage gameboard was published on profantasy software's blog :
Brussels, Belgium - For immediate distribution.
The values to hit the legs and wings have been inverted in the player aid printed in the game box : Legs are hit on 5+, and wings on 4+.
Here is a corrected pdf of the player aid, and a french translation too.
