Super Sonic Speedsters!

Freedom Planet, a very loopy and twisty arcade platformer where speed is king, just like the good old 16-bit times, is available 50% off for a week, DRM-free on GOG.com.

Freedom Planet is a combat-based platform adventure that pits a spunky dragon girl and her friends against an alien attack force. It’s fast and frantic – you’ll fly through the air at high speed like a comet, bust through foes with a flurry of punches or summon motorcycles that let you ride up walls and ceilings. With colorful retro artwork, an adorable cast, and tight but varied gameplay, it’s no wonder Freedom Planet is critically acclaimed as the Sonic successor we’ve all been waiting for.

Save the world like you usually do, but this time be real quick and fancy about it, in Freedom Planet, on GOG.com. The -50% special release discount will last until Tuesday, December 9, at 10:59AM GMT.

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT:

Want to see Jesse Cox taking on the many super-sonic challenges of Freedom Planet, over at ? We've recorded the whole thing for you on our vintage VCR! Here's [url=http://www.twitch.tv/gogcom/b/596407763]part one, and here's part two of the stream archive!

Tried the demo last week when I found out this was coming here. Liked it a lot. I can't figure out why some people criticize the controls, as I've found them to be pretty good. Naturally, I was playing on a gamepad. ;)

Anyway... BOUGHT!!! :)

So the game does work automatically with an Xbox 360 controller?

If there's nothing wrong with your system, the 360 controller should work perfectly.

Grargar: Another week with no classics as it seems. The games to be released on Thursday are Crimzon Clover and Dead State. (...)
Same disappointment here about the classics... but that's life ;-)

vicklemos: Great release, GOG!
Just searched freedom planet linux on google and got this:

Freedom Planet Probably Coming To Linux
[url=]http://www.gamingonlinux.com/articles/freedom-planet-probably-coming-to-linux.1652?module=articles_full&aid=1652&title=freedom-planet-probably-coming-to-linux[/url]

dated january 2013 :(
almost 2 years old and still no signs of linux support :(
According to this thread they have made the game with Multimedia Fusion 2, which could be problematic to port to other platforms than Windows.

That's funny. I didn't even know they had Walmarts in Pakistan. =P

Unless you count AVP from the previous week, but I personally don't. :P
Ah Dead State - that will be 500+ votes "completed", but I'm worried about criticism for possible slow patching for the GOG version. (unless Early Access got most of the major bugs out of the way)

Judging by the complaints of prior Early Access games (like Divinity: Original Sin or Wasteland 2), I doubt it. :P

Ah yes - http://www.gog.com/forum/wasteland_series/wasteland_2_has_been_updated_to_patch_3_windows_linux/page2

http://www.gog.com/forum/wasteland_series/gog_get_your_fn_shit_together_wtf_on_patch_3_and_31 - [edited out unnecessary sarcasm] I continue to hope Galaxy lessens these important issues.

I wonder if Shovel Knight will be on sale for a GOG Winter Sale...
