GISH is released on Steam!

Posted by Bluebaby Jul. 21, 2007 @ 5:08 PM EDT

http://steampowered.com/v/index.php?area=game&AppId=9500

After 3 years Gish finally gets a publisher...
The Valve driven online service Steam put an updated and spiced up version of the Indie hit Gish up today for a one week super low price of 7.95!

With new unlockables, fixed up gameplay and over 80+ user made levels now supported on the new official websites crypticsea.com/gish, i hope that steams users will take to it as much as the indie community did almost 3 years ago.

support us! and buy a freaking awesome game for only 7.95!

I don't have amny good memories of steam, but it's still very good to have your stuff on their, amazing publicity and a great way to showcase games.

That's something i do like about it, it's a good place for independent developers to get known :).

Anyway, congrats, you deserve it :).

Jul. 21, 2007 | 6:35 PM Bluebaby responds:

yeah, it will be interesting to see how it goes. honestly i wasnt a fan of steam either but their support is awesome.

thanks

Congrats Ed :) Wish me luck for my two upcoming PC games! :)

Jul. 21, 2007 | 8:55 PM Bluebaby responds:

good luck on those PC games ! :)

Jul. 21, 2007 | 6:15 PM Mogly says:

Awesome. I never bought it the first time round so this'll be my chance. Im not sure if you remember Ed, but around the time it was coming out in England we used to speak, I remember I asked if you could etch my name on a rock in the game.. and you said no. :)

Jul. 21, 2007 | 6:36 PM Bluebaby responds:

I think i remember that :) its better that you got this version then the origional anyway. this version is updated with a ton of fixes and extras that the origional version didnt have.

Jul. 21, 2007 | 6:54 PM Luis says:

Continued success to you Ed, btw your mechanical portraits were very cool.

Jul. 21, 2007 | 8:54 PM Bluebaby responds:

thanks, ive been working on some new portraits when i have some down time between games, ill try to get a new set up soon enough.

Jul. 21, 2007 | 8:03 PM AndrewMartin says:

I hate steam, and i didn't buy gish when i had the chance ages ago despite thinking it was amazing. So why am i so tempted to go and buy it off steam right now?

v . v

I hope it works out for you though. You did something brilliant with gish, and you deserve all the returns you get.

Jul. 21, 2007 | 8:55 PM Bluebaby responds:

thanks :) feel free to spread the word. word of mouth is what its all about.

Jul. 21, 2007 | 8:11 PM NickScott says:

Neat, I used to just play the demo over and over, but with the new $8 price, I may purchase it. What I'd really like though, is seeing it as an XBLA title.

Jul. 21, 2007 | 8:52 PM Bluebaby responds:

yeah honestly XBLA is the next step, we just need to get everything in order. most dont know this but gish was in publisher limbo so long because of a fight over rights when Chronic logic split.

but 2 years later we finally got full rights back and gish is on board for a (very late) published release.

Jul. 21, 2007 | 8:21 PM Warrickneff says:

haha, congrats about the new publisher for gish!

i like your profile message too.

Aug. 5, 2007 | 5:14 AM Ash4792 says:

Gish looks like an awesome game, it looks very similar to Loco-Roco for the PSP, did you play any part in the making of that or did they just copy Gish?

Aug. 5, 2007 | 6:03 PM Bluebaby responds:

they just copied gish, gish came out years before loco roco.

OMG I was so happy for you guys when I saw it on Steam (I'm a big Half-Life junky)!

I had downloaded the demo for GISH when I was into Diverge a while back.

If you are going to be working on future projects, I can't wait to see what you have up your sleeve Edmund!

Aug. 13, 2007 | 11:52 PM Bluebaby responds:

yeah im currently working on Gish 2, 3 online vs games and a few other side projects.

Aug. 13, 2007 | 8:14 AM Helltrikky says:

I will support soon, I wanna buy it seriously!

And in another subject , what's gonna be added on the sequel :)

Aug. 13, 2007 | 11:53 PM Bluebaby responds:

Gish 2 will be totally new, we are working on a lot of awesome shit that will floor you for sure. just wait.

Aug. 13, 2007 | 6:36 PM JPI says:

Congrats on the publisher :D
Just thought I'd tell you, I found your game in one of my UK gaming mags as a editors choice for under-rated games :D

Aug. 13, 2007 | 11:54 PM Bluebaby responds:

what magazine was it?

Aug. 14, 2007 | 8:48 PM JPI says:

It was in a magazine called "GigaHz" Issue 7 Pg129.
Unfortunately, I tore out the page, thinking "No shit! I know that game from Newgrounds" And I had the intention of 'one day' maybe sending it to you. But never got around to it, found it randomly when I was cleaning and then put it in the bin.
Anyways, it was in a section called "Gaming for something completely different".
The section featured about 5 games and yours was one of them. Giving a synopsis and their recommendation.
The article was written by Matt Powell (if you wanted to know xD)
And the magazine is discontinued and it's publisher Highbury was taken over by Imagine Publishing.

Congratulations on getting on Steam, but what are the new unlockables? Do I have to buy the Steam version or are they in a patch for the non-Steam version?
