40% off all skins
30% off 'Nauts from the Steam Store

The All Nauts Pack will immediately unlock all playable characters in the game, and you'll also unlock any new 'Nauts immediately as they are released.
At this time, the Update 4.5 is scheduled to release on December 6th, so that means you have two more weeks to get the pack. After that, you'll no longer be able to obtain it. We'll let you know about the definitive release date as we get closer to release.

Update 4.5: Revenge of the Renegades - Now in OPEN BETA
Qi'Tara has been preparing her blades for a little while now, and is now one step closer to joining the Awesomenauts! Try her out in the open beta right now and share your feedback on the official Awesomenauts forums!
In Update 4.5: Revenge of the Renegades we'll finally have all the members of Rocket's Renegades reunited as members of the Awesomenauts. Qi'Tara complements the team as an incredibly agile assassin that excels at chasing down her victims.
This update also brings a cool new feature to the Level Editor: the animation editor! This new tools gives players the ability to create elaborate animations, and it's the same tool the developers use for many of the in-game effects.
In addition to bringing a new character and this upgrade for the level editor, Update 4.5 will also bring a couple of changes to the different types of content-bundles we have available right now.
Based on a lot of data and user feedback we will be replacing the All Nauts Pack when Update 4.5 launches! In it's place will be a new Starter Pack that's cheaper and more player-friendly, while also keeping the sense of progression intact.
Of course, players who already own the All Nauts Pack will continue to receive new characters as they release - so this change won't impact existing owners in any way.
Furthermore, we'll also be replacing the Costume Parties with a new type of bundle when the update launches. Since the game has gone free to play, not all players have access to the same characters anymore and having a fixed pack of skins for various characters no longer makes as much sense. In the weeks ahead, we'll detail the new Starter Pack and the new skin bundles.
We'll let you know at least two weeks in advance before the All Nauts Pack and Costume Party packs actually retired, so stay tuned for more news. If you've been holding out on the All Nauts Pack you'll probably want to pick it up in the coming weeks before it's too late!
