Hello everyone! Today through next Monday Probe will be on sale to celebrate the last major update for the game that introduced leaderboards and scoring systems for each level and overall score. Check it out and don't forget to leave the game a review, good or bad. All feedback helps me make this and future games better. There will be some minor updates to settings options in the game soon but aside from that I don't have much else planned for the game at the moment. Somewhere down the road I will most likely add more levels and backgrounds but as for now I am ready to move on to developing my

Hello Everyone! I'm back with another exciting update for Probe! AND to celebrate this during the Steam Summer Sale ... Probe is 75% off through July 9! I have made my own custom backgrounds from a compilation of photo manipulated public domain NASA space photos and custom brushes that are more colorful and of a wider variation than the previous boring star backgrounds to make the levels and main menu a lot more visually interesting. Adding many new alien worlds to the ambiance. I even updated the trailer and screenshots with the new content. Check out the new trailer/screenshots and let me kn

Hello everyone! Happy to announce the Probe Soundtrack is now FREE for everyone on steam! Get it here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1336740/Probe_Soundtrack/ Special thank you to RelaxMoods.com and Pixelsphere.org for allowing me to use one of the songs for the soundtrack. It also has been brought to my attention that the in game music sometimes stops after a song ends and new song doesn't play until either retrying a level or continuing to next level. Also has been some reports of the gamepad controls switching action buttons on them after changing control inputs to keyboard and back to

The game now has 14 tracks (plus the menu music=15) that will play and cycle as you play. However, due to the restrictions of the engine I use, restarting a level will go to the next track. It was either that or listen to the same song start over upon retrying a level. If I find a work around for that I will update it asap. PLUS the soundtrack will be a

Hello Everyone, I am so terribly sorry but when I did the controls update something happened and it wasn't including the EXE so it removed it in the update instead. The issue is now fixed and the new updates are fully in still as well. So sorry for any inconvenience. Will be checking all my build file sizes more closely on each update. Thanks for your patience, Nathan Hicks Nate Bit Games
