New game from the creator of Bonbon! Interactivity: The Interactive Experience
Aetheric Games, creator of Bonbon, has just launched his second game on Steam:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1166780/Interactivity_The_Interactive_Experience/
It's a short, dark and surreal meta-narrative walking sim about player agency and pushing buttons... kind of like Stanley Parable meets David Lynch.
We hope you enjoy it!
The PIXELJAM COMPLETE Megabundle + DLC Supporter Packs Are Live
Yesterday we launched PIXELJAM COMPLETE, a massive collection that brings together 14 years of our creative output in a single bundle.
- 20+ games & soundtracks
- Prototypes & alphas from projects we never finished
- Wallpapers, design sketches, art, gifs, comics, music & more
You can find it here: pixeljam.itch.io/pixeljam-complete
In tandem with this bundle, we are also rolling out "supporter packs" for each of our games on Steam, that contain sketches, concept art, gifs, wallpapers & soundtracks:
(click each game for its supporter pack)
Cheap Golf
Potatoman Seeks The Troof
Glorkian Warrior
Last Horizon
Dino Run DX
Gamma Bros (Launches Oct 21)
Snowball! (Launches Oct 21)
If you just want the goodies for 1 or 2 of our games, the Steam DLC's are the way to go. However, each of them are only about 1% of the total contents of the Pixeljam Complete bundle, which is overall a much better value.
Also, if you'd like to help boost our launch signal, click here.
Thanks for the ongoing support!

Bonbon Update/Patch 2.2 Is Live
- Added a windowed mode, in the Options menu.
- Added a brightness setting, in the Options menu.
- Added a option to switch to a simpler fur shader. This should help with the frame rate drop some players experience when Bonbon appears.
- Made some adjustments to help with a rare bug that could cause some systems to stick on the initial loading screen.
- Fixed achievement exploit - you can no longer get "Little Chatterbox" by repeatedly talking to Bonbon.
- Simplified some toy collision meshes. This should give a performance boost on certain systems.
- Exposed a cheat to let you skip to a specific scene from the start menu, in case of problems or if you want to replay from a certain scene. On the title screen press:
--- [shift] + [1] for the garden scene
--- [shift] + [2] for the lounge scene
--- [shift] + [3] for the dinner table scene
--- [shift] + [4] for the bedtime story
--- [shift] + [5] for the dream sequence
--- [shift] + [6] for the waking up scene
--- [shift] + [7] for the end credits
We hope this helps... let us know if you have any new issues in the forums. Thanks!
