Did they bring the date forward or something? Whatever the reason, Introversion's fourth game is now available for purchasement and playation.

You can get it from Steam (http://store.steampowered.com/app/1530/), or direct from Introversion (http://store.introversion.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=59). It's cheaper on Steam for some reason.

Hooray, because beta testers can use their keys to upgrade the demo to the full version!

Cool stuff. I'm not sure if I'll run out and get this any time soon. I still have barely touched the awesomeness of Darwinia so I'm not in any huge rush to snag the multiplayer version of same.

Been waiting for this,
Darwinia was a blast, and the guys from Introversion have not made a bad game yet.

Just a shame, I couldnt gift the Darwinia copy to a mate, so he could see for himself, but no biggy.

The game is fantastic (try the demo (http://www.introversion.co.uk/multiwinia/downloads/index.html) for yourself) but the server browser is terrible. No way to make a private game, no way to check the options on the server you're joining and no chat in the pre-game lobby. Should hopefully be sorted in the first patch but this could turn a lot of people off the game.

I got this as a bonus when I bought Darwinia a few days ago. Technically it was the other way around, but I was buying the pack more for Darwinia than Multiwinia. Still, I'll definitely give this a try sometime. I have a feeling I'll be pretty awful at it though. :/

Darwinia is fantastic btw - I can't believe it took me so long to play it!

Darwinia is great and all but it's no Uplink.

I found Darwinia fun but too easy. Hopefully this solves that problems in a way.

Wow... That looks amazing. I should try gaming on a computer sometimes.

Uplink is fantastic, I managed to finally track down a copy a couple of years back... came with a free copy of Defcon too (ok, so it was the other way round, but I wanted Uplink more).

:D

Might have to try Multiwinia, I have Darwinia so if it is more of the same I'm sold :)

Multiwinia is a multiplayer version of Darwinia, more or less.
