Ok, this is a bit misleading. We had neither a fire, nor are we selling cows. BUT, you do get to EAT cows in Tales from Space: About a Blob, our original title for PSN. Most importantly it’s on sale for $5.99 and some ridiculously cheaper price for PSN Plus users. Now you have no excuse not to buy it.

New Co-operative DLC levels available next week!
By July 1st, 2011, underHey all, Graham here to let you know that we’re releasing two new DLC levels for About a Blob next week on the PlayStation Network!
The levels are set in a new “alien planet” environment. While playing through the levels, you will come across puzzles that require two players to solve.
The levels will be available on Tuesday July 5th in the Americas, and on Wednesday July 6th in Europe.
AaB in top 25 list!
By June 23rd, 2011, underHi all! Just a little update from us. Drinkbox is furiously working away on some exciting stuff as the summer is ramping up here in the office – literally – I wish we had AC. Perhaps the strategy is that we work better at high temperatures? My mouse melted yesterday.
But on to even hotter news – our dear friends at PSNStores wisely decided to include us in their top 25 PSN Stores list! Now, I probably would of given us the #1 position, but everyone to their own.
Keep that freezer packed with popsicles kids.
You can dress ‘em up but can’t take them out…
By March 9th, 2011, underOur first DLC is officially out. And yes – it is finally possible to dress your Blob up as a baby pirate (personal fav).
That’s right – now there is finally an answer to the much pondered question “why the hell are there blue points to collect?”. To improve your speed run times. Yes, true, but NOW you can also use those blue points as currency to buy wicked skins for your Blob’s head, eye, nose, ears and body.
Perhaps you’re feeling a bit super trooper?
Or perhaps a bit humphrey bogart?
How do you get in on this awesomeness? Basically log onto the TfS:AaB, get the automatic update, and you too will have access to the Skin editor in the main menu. Customizations and Accessories! w00t
D-BOX CAMEOS!?
By February 25th, 2011, underYes you read right! Everyone knows about the awesome puzzles, cool art style and internet meme references across the game, but only a few people know that the DrinkBox team is also scattered across the levels!
Tales From Space: About a Blob Launch Party
By February 15th, 2011, underHey all, Graham here. On Friday Feb 11, we held a launch party in my building’s party room.
Despite the building losing power for about an hour, and eventually getting kicked out by an angry security guard, the party was quite a success! Or maybe it was a success because of these things?
- Important element #1 for a party – Beer
- Important element #2 – Liquor
- The bar setup
- The Imposing Dan Posner
- People begin to arrive
- Drinks begin being ordered
- Steph before Wisers
- Steph after Wisers
- Me with Fiona the lovely bar maid (her hair even matches the cabinets!)
- I said “no photos”
- We made it all the way through the game that night!
- Ryan prepares for his speech
- Out comes the champagne
- The speech begins!
- My view of the speech
- Speech over! Party continues
- Sam presents the Blob cake she provided
- Blob cake before
- Blob cake after
- Steph: “Stabby Stabby”
- Blob cake after Steph
Thanks to Fiona for Organizing everything! Also thanks to Sam who provided the Tunes and the Blob Cake, and most of these photos!
