The Day Has Come - For Cobalt

Long ago, side-scrolling platform games were the final word in gaming - they were the measure of entertainment, skill and determination. As time went on, that unique brand of fun somehow never wore out - if anything, it only got better with time. And now, here we are in the future; better hardware, smarter players and an ever-growing demand have come together into a single, shining point of light - and that light is Cobalt!

Much like Minecraft in it's infancy, Cobalt is being released in an Alpha stage today, to let people have a chance to play-test it, and see the game as it develops firsthand. Developed by indie team Oxeye Game Studios and published by Mojang, this highly addictive action platformer already has the makings of a great game. Want to try it out for yourself? Check out the official Cobalt Forums and Cobalt Wiki now for details!

hope this is like Minecraft Alpha, that when you bought it you had free updates for life even after the retail game is out.

Looks like they don't plan on making it Mac compatible until it's in Beta stage and costs 14.95 eruos.

Not off to a good start, Cobalt.

Okay, why are you getting worked up about this? Mojang didn't make it, they're just publishing it. Doesn't that mean it should be in other games? And if the gameplay is at all like what the video shows it to be I can play tons of flash games just like it for free. And Mojang, you are no longer allowed to use the "Poor little indie dev company" defence any more.

""who are you to tell them not to"

oh, I don't know, the customer? durr. are you that blind you idiotic substandard."

Wow, stop crying.

It's their site and they can advertise how they like. You are the one who looks like an idiot with that above comment, because you do NOT have any right of feedback like this at all. You vote with your wallet. Ie, if you don't like it, don't buy it, and leave. That's the only right you have.

If you don't like the ads here, that's tough. It's their right to do as they please. If you think they are scrambling to change everything because a couple of whiny tools made complaints, you are delusional. It won't change. Get over it. You don't have any right to complain, even as a customer. It's not your forum. You don't have a critical need to be a member here.

show me where I imply they are going to change ****? I already voted with my wallet, nothing has been spent, and I'm not paying for any of this crap, and that is EXACTLY why I am voicing my opinion right here, to leave a heads up to Mojang, so get your nose out of other peoples business you pompous egotistical *****, if you think a customer does not have the right to leave his/her opinion on a product or advertisement, go to hell you fascist ******* it's people like you whom muck the entire system for everyone else, and its funny considering you think your pathetic comments are going to sway me to stop leaving a stupid/rude/witty remark; you are wrong, just like every other internet moron, I'm not going to learn to quit and your just going to get all self righteous argumentative, so save yourself the waste of time and just quit it, and let me leave my remark, what a huuuge bother I am "causing " you.

Better to buy it now because this will cost 36 Euros when it will be released,10 Euros is pretty cheap but you save 16 euros...

1 EURO = 1.30485 US DOLLAR
This will be more than 36 dollars in the us, so agreed to buy i now then later, even though there is bugs.

If you disagree with how Curse is running the forum they own, you can go make your own. I promise you won't be missed.
