| ibb & obb Out now on Nintendo Switch | 2020-03-05 | We're really happy to announce that ibb & obb is now available on Nintendo Switch. To those of you who have bought the game on PC. Thank you, this is what pays my rent. To those of you who will also buy the Switch version. Thank you, that is what pays for the champagne tonight. ♥ ~ Richard Boeser |
| Nintendo Switch version launching soon. | 2020-02-28 | Hi ibbs, hi obbs, On Thursday March 5 ibb & obb will launch on Nintendo Switch™. You can pre-order it now with a 15% discount. Announcement Trailer The Nintendo Switch version is an upgraded version of the current Steam version. It is largely the same, but we've gone through the whole game again and made many smaller and some bigger tweaks. Ranging from tweaking jump distances to replacing some puzzles. We intend to bring these changes to the Steam version later this year. (The Nintendo Switch version is build on a different game engine and we intend to make the Steam version use that one too.) At launch the game will be available in the regi |
| Mac version no longer available | 2019-11-08 | We are no longer selling the Mac version of ibb & obb. Apple's latest operating system no longer supports 32 bit apps. We won't be able to create a 64 bit version of the game easily and will for now remove the Mac version. We hope to have a Mac build available again later. ~ Richard |
| Update for Mac - Fix/Workaround for Friend Invite overlay missing. | 2016-05-10 | Multiple players reported on friend invites not working on Mac. More precise, the Invite screen would not pop up after selecting 'invite friend' from the game menu. It is still not perfect as it seems that with the current game engine we're using there is no way to make the invite work as intended. The workaround after the update is to select 'invite friend' from the menu and then press Shift + Tab to launch the Steam overlay, which would then allow you to invite a friend. In the long run we hope to have a proper solution as we understand this is not ideal. Cheers ~ Richard |

| Day 1 results | 2014-05-27 | ibb & obb are now one Steam day old. We sold around 2100 copies. By far most of those are double packs, which is great because ibb & obb is all about playing together and it means a lot of people are sending a gift copy to a friend. Thanks to all of you who bought the game. This is how we can stay independent and fund our next project. We'll keep you up to date on how things go. ~ Richard |

| For those who experience a crash, please update your video card drivers | 2014-05-27 | Hi all, We're sorry to hear that the game is crashing for some people and we're looking into the crash logs. For now we can give one tip which has helped many of beta testers when they had trouble: update your graphics card drivers. The easiest way to update your drivers is through steam itself. Hit "Steam" in the top-left menu and select "Check for Video Driver Updates". If the game is still crashing, try manually updating your drivers.
