Paint it black.

<span class="bold">BLACKHOLE</span>, a story-driven platformer full of black comedy, is available now for Windows, Mac, and Linux, DRM-free on GOG.com, with GOG Galaxy support for achievements and a 70% launch discount.

The coffeeman will be our salvation! And we're not talking about getting us through the weekend's drunker stupor, either. We're talking actual end-of-the-world stuff here. Because the spaceship's coffeeman is the only person left standing after a terrible crash on top of a gaping BLACKHOLE. With the A.I.'s sarcastic guidance, he must go out there and find a way to fix the ship, save his crewmates, and finish the mission. Mind-bending puzzles, gravity-defying platforming, deadly pitfalls, and hilarious situations await inside this mysteriously diverse world that stretches across every which dimension. No time for coffee now, volunteer, we've got a universe to save!

Get consumed by an unpredictable, unforgiving, unwieldy <span class="bold">BLACKHOLE</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com. Want to challenge yourself even further? Gravitate towards the <span class="bold">Complete Edition upgrade</span> to gain access to the 3 pieces of awesome DLC and the catchy soundtrack!
The 70% discount will last until November 24, 1:59 PM UTC.

Tyrrhia: Why must trailer voices be (of course, in my opinion) this annoying and over-exaggerated?
For this particular trailer/game, I think it is exaggerated on purpose, read parody/humor. In my ears, it sounds like a hollywood blockbuster film trailer, which is nice considering the context it is used in.

omega64: So the dlc contains more levels than the game itself?

Fiola: Well, base game contains all 100 main levels and full story. Also end-game content named as "Secret of the Entity" and "Challenge Vault" is included.

For 10+ director's cut levels (meant to be a bonus) you should head to get Complete Edition, where are also other bonuses. Testing Laboratory DLC (which is funny prequel for the story), soundtrack and much more! :)
Ah, I was confused as the DLC upgrade mentions 130+ levels.
The main game mentions around 90 levels.
Sounds like the game has 90 levels and the DLC adds another 130 :P

Yeah, we are not including overworlds in global level count in the promotional materials, but I did here. So, base game 90 (levels) + 10 (overworlds). With DLC 130+, still adding because of Challenge Vault seasons :). Don't worry! Math was done! :)

Since you're the dev, you should ask GOG make your text {color: orange;}. They'll understand. ;)

I am glad we have a chance to even be here. Really, thanks for the information, but I think I am okay with my undercover "text" here now. We are all anxious in the studio awaiting community comments to our beloved project. I still have a chance leave this planet if everything goes wrong! :D

Oh . . . well, I play my "Question Change" card: why must Hollywood blockbuster film trailer voices be this annoying and over-exaggerated? :P

Well, in that case don't just leave the planet -- head for the galactic center and see for yourself what has gone wrong! :P

Because they reflect the content inside the film... ;)

Welcome to the devs :)

Could we please get the demo here too?
There is one on that other platform.

I'm very tempted to get the game, though I'm sure, that it is far too hardcore for me.
But at this price..... I could give it a try.
Oh, I love artbooks and the other extras. Tempting....tempting....

Blackhole is an excellent game, I'm really happy FiolaSoft that you have released it here on GOG!

For that price it is worth for the soundtrack alone :)

omega64: It has an easy mode that's way less frustrating.
Wow. It seem it does indeed have an Easy Mode. Why didn't they mention it in the announcement or on the game card? Might get them more sales. I almost dismissed the game until I read your post, now I am acutally considering to buy it, especially at that discount.

I'd also like a demo, in order to make sure it will run on my Vista machine. I'm usually not much into platformers, but if there's an easy mode and it will work, then at this price I will pick it up.

Well, I decided to take a chance and bought it and it seems to run perfectly, so maybe you guys should add Vista as a viable OS to the gamecard?
