Had an eye on it for a while but it's only available in Europe and not many online shops seem to carry it.
They clearly did not learn any lessons from iam8bit.
You are supposed to say the misprint was on purpose and act all smug about it!
I'm intrigued but in the US. I'd be happy to swap favors if some kind EU person would assist, as I'm not seeing any vendors that seem to offer it for import.

base.com have it, it's relatively cheap too..

Thanks, that's a good price but they don't seem to ship to where I live.
Will keep an eye on other sellers...

Any new announcement coming? Release?
LRG are selling the leftover Oddworld playing cards for $9.99 if anyone is interested: https://limitedrungames.com/products/oddworld-strangers-wrath-playing-card-deck?variant=37811082563

Wow, that was done over a year ago, so I guess at this point I can't be mad!

Apologies if this is too much off-topic, but it just hit me what a truly remarkable thing Doug, Josh and everyone involved with LRG are accomplishing. Yes, we can gripe about small print runs and perhaps less-than-ideal ordering methods, but as a former "physical or die" person who lapsed into digital with PS4 and Vita and only came back to my senses last year, they're a godsend.
Here's to further expansion and great things from LRG. Your work and dedication is deeply appreciated.

You can still be mad -- what that person is doing is pretty crass. I imagine you didn't intend for that to be used on eBay, especially showing your personal signature like that.
It's remarkable -- they jumpstarted a whole niche.
Signature Edition, Special Reserve, iam8bit's physical releases: It was all proven here.
There were precursors, of course (special shoutout to Retro City Rampage, where the dev single-handledly proved Sony was open to highly specialized, online-only small runs), but the risk and initiative they took with this business model is impressive.

Yeah, Gaijinworks is also a precursor!
I had a feeling it would end up on eBay one day, it was a trade for something so I gave up one of my personal copies.

Had to have been pretty good to give up such an item. Was it Sega-related at all, that would automatically make it worth whatever price was asked haha
The visual novel thing is interesting. I'd have to know what it was about before committing though.
So Night Trap is "Spring 2017" which is funny because I checked my calendar and it says today is May 3rd, which means its spring now! I'm dying to know when that baby is going on sale and how the different covers are going to work. Don't keep us waiting too long, LRG.

Yeah as long as it's a good one!
I like to imagine this exchange was for a complete ultra megazord this trading a tiny game for a giant plastic monstrosity.
I've been liking and retweeting everything all day. I'm definitely in.
I don't know if someone already shared it but :
"May 12th for Mutant Mudds and Risk of Rain on the 26th"

https://twitter.com/LimitedRunGames/status/859638363611156484?s=09
And no other releases for the month, according to another reply. I guess it's three games for May, as there are two different Mutand Mudds titles.
Actually there could be Strafe in between, on the 19th.

Granted it doesn't seem to be sure yet, and one may say it's not part of the LRG collection anyway ^^
You and me both. I will buy it for every single person I know who owns a Vita, ha ha.
Oh man. Fingers crossed.

Hopefully they just release Strafe and Risk on the same day, don't want two single releases back to back, just combine them.
Please be Fata Morgana...

Flinthook arrived for me today. Wasn't expecting it this early, actually.

That's good to know, I don't have to set any money aside before my next paycheque (20th). No offence Mutant Mudds!
So I can probably afford to splurge out on something else.
Risk of Rain I'll definitely be getting though!
Yep, got mine at the weekend.
My copies were waiting for me when I got home on Saturday.
Doug RT'ed what you made of Fata Morgana so finger's crossed that it's that one.
He did, and I'm thankful for it! Of course, he is a big Vita fan, obviously... I wouldn't try to read too much into it, as anything could happen.
With that said, my fingers are just as crossed
I hope so!

Any word on Maldita Castilla EX for PS4? I stupidly missed the devs very limited physical run because my preorder email went to a different folder ugh =(

I have 19 total. I'm kinda scared that one of my boxes missed one and the alternative Night Trap cover will be 20
Wait, will the red Night Trap cover only available with the redemption of loyalty coupon/tickets? If so, oh noes.

Lol, hell to the no. I mean: you do you, man, but no way I'd pay $80 for a digital game.

any chance @ VA-11 HALL-A now that it's been rated for Vita?
I'd definitely support this because we need more localized VNs on Vita.
Fata Morgana is one of the best games the genre has to offer, the Vita version is terrific and FM already has a small but vocal fanbase that would certainly help get out the word. Just sayin'...

Just got my copy of Flinthook. Was there a last-minute box art change I missed hearing about? I could have sworn it looked different on the site when I placed my order - a lighter maybe white background instead of the dark black background I'm looking at now. Might just be my imagination though. In any case, I like the way it looks.

Have several LRG tweets been disappearing over the past couple of days? I could've sworn there was an announcement about fixed versions of the Dear Esther cover being available upon request through their Fresh Desk. I believe there was also another comment that blatantly stated physical copies of What Remains of Edith Finch were likely dropping courtesy of iam8bit, too.
As previously mentioned on this page, Limited Run's Strafe variant is expected to release on May 19th although it could admittedly be delayed. They'll likely want to push out their copies shortly after Special Reserve begins putting their PS4 pre-orders in the mail on May 16th. If you're willing to brave their credit card-only system, SRG still has the console version open for pre-purchase.
Somewhere within the bowels of this thread, I believe there was a series of tweets from the port team that acknowledged physical copies where coming for the Vita. When someone inquired whether LRG would be handling it, they simply replied with a smiling emoticon. Probably my most anticipated possibility from the entire Limited Run catalog since I suspect 8bit will obtain Thumper from their pre-established vinyl ties and House of Fata Morgana would be an incredible gain as well! Wish there was some way for Umineko to reach the West in a retail fashion, but it struggled even in its native country on the PS3 and PSP from my understanding.
Nah, the Sega 32X/Yellow variant will be exclusive to the ticket redemption reward program. It will apparently be offered as part of the forty-ticket 'free game' tier meaning you'll have to obtain an entire physical copy to receive it. Both the original Sega CD/Blue and Illustrative/Red covers will be reversible.
From my recollection, the box-art always had a starry, dark background. Perhaps you're thinking about the white cover of the bundled soundtrack in its place?Just got my copy of Flinthook.

I'd buy that
I think they're sold out now. I've tried to order a second copy but I can't add it to my cart.
I guess people will have to settle for the LRG version now !
Granted I'm waiting for more orders to arrive, but I only have 8 coupons as of today. If it comes in the early spring I'll probably have to pass :/

Now that I've looked at your link, the box art for the game itself IS what I remember - but it looks purple in that pic and pitch black in person. Is it just me? I do like it though.
