  4. Kallemort - # November 28th, 2008 at 2:04 am

    Well damn. I have a friend who’d love this, but I don’t have money just now.

    And another satisfied customer! Been following the development of this game for some time now and today when I read about the price-drop I decided it was time to take action and support the game which entertained me for so many hours.

    Keep up the good work, I’m looking forward to seeing the next missions.

  6. Jazmeister - # November 28th, 2008 at 7:16 am

    Updated my website with the information. Up to four people could read that! THINK OF THE SALES!

    Also, I told RPS about it. That might help a little more.

  7. Marco Mustapic - # November 28th, 2008 at 7:41 am

    Bought the game. I suppose I will be able to run the mac version with the license.

  8. cado - # November 28th, 2008 at 7:57 am

    I would buy it… but this doesn’t include the mac version does it?

  9. Tendrop - # November 28th, 2008 at 9:07 am

    Wow, this just shows how neat Datarealms is. Kudos, Data.

  10. ARme - # November 28th, 2008 at 9:26 am

    I’ve buy one for my cousin.
    He will surelly enjoy this for christmass :D

    Hope a next build with nices new element Data :)

  11. war_man333 - # November 28th, 2008 at 9:27 am

    cool..
    can you fix the controls now?
    Player 2 controls are ffffffff’d up.

  12. dustin - # November 28th, 2008 at 10:26 am

    Wait! This is not the post I expected the title i wanted was something like “Mac Build Now Out!” Oh well No cheap Mac build just work hard like you normally do.

  13. chineseboy16 - # November 28th, 2008 at 11:17 am

    @Cado

    You can buy it now, and when the Mac version comes out. you can use it. You don’t have to pay every time a build is updated.

  14. macman - # November 28th, 2008 at 11:51 am

    mac, version, now, takes, too, long

  15. Hiro - # November 28th, 2008 at 12:16 pm

    I’d buy it, but I have no clue when the mac version will be coming out. Maybe I should take a gamble anyway, even if I might end up holding a key for a month.

  16. Tomaster - # November 28th, 2008 at 12:26 pm

    @Hiro
    Do it.

  17. Talent - # November 28th, 2008 at 12:34 pm

    Oh god, now I have to go out and buy a pre-paid credit card somewhere so I can get this. Data Realms, why must you make such a wonderful, addicting game!?

  18. Morbo - # November 28th, 2008 at 12:44 pm

    waaiit, “you will get access to future updates of the game – up to the one containing final first campaign.”

    So we have to re-buy the game once it’s finished? >:/

  19. Chamyky - # November 28th, 2008 at 12:51 pm

    @Morbo : That means there’ll be extensions.

  20. war_man333 - # November 28th, 2008 at 1:40 pm

    Extensions?
    Expansions?

  21. Shook - # November 28th, 2008 at 1:52 pm

    This is pretty awesome. Now to find someone to senselessly spam it to…

  22. Naka - # November 28th, 2008 at 1:56 pm

    Coolio.

  23. nonnymouse - # November 28th, 2008 at 2:11 pm

    “- up to the one containing final first campaign.”

    What does this mean then? Don’t we have it for updates after the final first campaign, or do you intend to just stop development by that time?

  24. Yeznik - # November 28th, 2008 at 3:07 pm

    Hell yea!

  25. Tomaster - # November 28th, 2008 at 3:14 pm

    @Morbo
    We knew that awhile ago.

  26. Azukki - # November 28th, 2008 at 3:16 pm

    I’m not sure if I’ll give the second one away, or sell it for a higher price later and use that to upgrade to the support edition.

  27. Data - # November 28th, 2008 at 3:20 pm

    Nonnymous: fixed/clarified. We will most likely continue development after first campaign. What you buy now will defintiely include the whole first campaign. Can’t say for sure about expansion packs etc though. Hope you understand!

    Morbo: No you will NOT have to re-buy. If you buy now, you’re done.

    Regarding mac: Yes these keys you buy now will work on imminent mac version as well.

  28. Krumbs - # November 28th, 2008 at 4:11 pm

    Oh goody!

  29. geti - # November 28th, 2008 at 7:28 pm

    holy damnit.
    i has no credit card, and there be a sale.
    fcuk. ><

  30. The Independent Gaming Source - # November 28th, 2008 at 8:11 pm

    [...] note: Data Realms is having a Black Friday sale for Cortex Command. The popular squad-based action/strategy physics game is $9 over the weekend, [...]

  31. Dorvac - # November 29th, 2008 at 12:15 am

    Nice.
    Now it costs 0.01 oz of gold…

  32. Skofo - # November 29th, 2008 at 2:29 am

    Cool! Any chance for a Linux version?

  33. swaan - # November 29th, 2008 at 4:37 am

    Im from a very poor country, without this sale, CC would have been out of my league. Thanks!

  34. James - # November 29th, 2008 at 7:07 am

    Sweet deal I’ve bough it, looking forward to the Mac version so I can play the hell out of it!

  35. Stan - # November 29th, 2008 at 7:51 am

    I can’t buy, even if wanted to! I have purchased a special card from my Bank that is used exclusively for Online shopping. However, prepaid MO/TO Visa cards are not accepted by your payment supplier. Furthermore, Poland is not on the “Local bank transfer” list, while international wire fees are extortionate. Paypal doesn’t seem to come through either, returning a “can’t verify card” error, even though I can and just did pay for a game on Steam this way. I’m out of options.

  36. Evolution - # November 29th, 2008 at 8:45 am

    Bought it!

    Woohoo, thanks for this awesome discount DR!
    We don’t have a black friday here in the europe so this really is helping me :)
    I just wanted to ask, will this game ever be on STEAM? To me, that’s the best PC Gaming program and i play all my games with STEAM.

  37. Wipe - # November 29th, 2008 at 11:40 am

    Now that’s the idea for turkey clone :D

  38. Pie2.1 - # November 29th, 2008 at 12:10 pm

    Hey Data,

    I have some problems with my game, there minor but problems I would like to fix.

    The gold doesnt shine anymore and the num pad and arrow keys dont work either. Just thought I should let you kno

  39. Coops - # November 29th, 2008 at 1:54 pm

    GREAT DEAL!!! but i am still a little disappointed about no news for the mac version. any heads up data? because that would be awesome to hear.

  40. Tendrop - # November 29th, 2008 at 10:41 pm

    Christ! Kalashnikov Poultry!

  41. Jangorulz - # November 30th, 2008 at 2:13 am

    I bought 2 codes Going to have a raffle with freinds to see who gets one, Secound one is going to my brother whos stationd in japan. He loves this game.

  42. gsm - # November 30th, 2008 at 9:52 am

    Hey, let us know if this sale was a success. Seeing that I bought 3 keys, I get the feeling it was. Best of luck, DR!

  43. Bremze - # November 30th, 2008 at 1:05 pm

    That picture is the best thing ever come out the jaws of the internet! I will be realy disapointed if the upcoming builds won’t have a turkey actor.

  44. Bremze - # November 30th, 2008 at 1:09 pm

    That picture is the best thing ever come out the jaws of the Internet, many thanks Prom! I will be disappointed if the upcoming builds won’t have a turkey actor.

  45. Danny - # November 30th, 2008 at 1:41 pm

    i posted in the announcement about build 22 coming out. my McAfee said the following about the purchase link: When we tested this site we found links to spytech-web.com, which we found to be a distributor of downloads some people consider adware, spyware or other potentially unwanted programs.

    i really want to take advantage of this 50% off sale because this game looks great, but i really dont want spyware too.

  46. BerkleyJ - # November 30th, 2008 at 3:25 pm

    You got me Data. I finally took the leap and bought it. It is getting rather nice now, just need more campaign levels.

  47. Victo - # November 30th, 2008 at 3:37 pm

    Haha, I just bought the game again :D
    For some reason, I moved my old PC upstairs where there’s no internet plug, and it was an old key, so internet was required to deactivate it…

    So I bought a new one, thank you Data for this special :D

  48. Kigali - # November 30th, 2008 at 10:01 pm

    So I bought a key for Cortex a week ago, but it never came through. I made sure I typed everything in correctly, but I have yet to receive the key.

    tl;dr: Should I just repurchase it?

  49. Data - # November 30th, 2008 at 10:05 pm

    Kigalo, send your info (name/email) to support@datarealms.com and we’ll help you out asap.

  50. Blank - # December 1st, 2008 at 12:22 am

    Whee! Bought a key for my friend. I got my first one through TrialPay + Netflix (both awesome services, by the way) and wanted to share the Cortex Command love. Excellent discount, Mr. Data!

  51. Coops - # December 1st, 2008 at 9:09 am

    私達はすぐにできているマッキントッシュ版を必要とする!

  52. ARme - # December 1st, 2008 at 10:52 am

    I hope there’s gonna be some content additions when that mac port hit the ground.
    Campaign are cool but what I appreciate the most is various robot and gadgets that’s change every game.
    So I hope Cortex Command a little bit more complete in order to give a very cool present for x-mas.

  53. robolee - # December 1st, 2008 at 1:23 pm

    I hope you win this year at IGF!

    The only other contenders are “Swarm Racer”, “Glitch” (student entry?), “Dyson”, “Rubber Ninjas” and possibly a few others that don’t have a public build/got corrupt when I downloaded them.

  54. Hiro - # December 1st, 2008 at 2:16 pm

    oops i forgot to buy the key.
    o well

  55. Skiv - # December 2nd, 2008 at 2:59 am

    Thaaank you Skiv.

  57. -E-S- - # December 2nd, 2008 at 9:51 am

    How do you get into this actual chat? Im pretty confused…

  58. Azukki - # December 2nd, 2008 at 5:39 pm

    “the misc tab has changed to ‘presets’”
    “b23 and mac release looks likely for this weekend”

    “btw we’re about to launch a new page on the site
    where you can vote for and submit features/fixes
    you have to log in with your key
    and then you get 3 votes and 1 new feature suggestion each month”

    Awesome

  59. Lord Tim - # December 2nd, 2008 at 7:46 pm

    I will be using all of my feature suggestions on Lua docs.

  60. Tomaster - # December 2nd, 2008 at 9:02 pm

    Why doesn’t someone who doesn’t have any actual good ideas do that, and you use your feature suggestions on stuff that will improve the game?

  61. Lord Tim - # December 2nd, 2008 at 10:37 pm

    Because that will improve the game.

  62. Sega - # December 3rd, 2008 at 9:06 am

    Ugh… found out about the sale too late. Oh well. It’s probably a good idea if I save some money anyway.

  63. Dharr - # December 3rd, 2008 at 8:57 pm

    When i notice this the chuffing thing has ended!
    Waaaaaaaaaa!

    That would stop Demo users .

  66. BerkleyJ - # December 5th, 2008 at 2:56 pm

    “That WILL stop demo users.” he quoted Data.
