Working on an update to Radioactive at the moment.
A new non-playable demo will be released on March 10th which will allow you to test the game on your system first (which is always useful), and show users what a game looks and plays like. It's remarkably fun to watch the computer play itself, and every game is different.

Future Snooker, Future Pool, and Taskforce Flash Sale
A weekend sale starts today featuring Future Snooker, Future Pool, and Taskforce. Yes, Taskforce, the game I love myself but which is broadly disliked! Yet, I'll keep liking it. I guess that one reason is that it takes a while to progress and unlock the levels, enemies, and weapons. Perhaps the early levels are too long, but the full game once complete, is just packed with re-playability. This sale represents a good time to give the game a try.
Grab these games with 25% off for the next 4 days.
I'm busy working on future updates and exploring possible new games too. Follow here or join the Cornutopia Software mailing list (on my main website) for news about releases and sales as they happen. Several plans for 2023 are already underway.

Flatspace IIk Updated
Greetings Starpilots! Welcome to the first Flatspace update in over a year, the first compile under Windows 11. Not many changes, a few tiny bug fixes.
The biggest change is that in-game music is now loaded and played when you enter a sector. Until now, ALL in-game tracks were loaded at the game start, which was a huge memory burden as well as slowing down the loading time. This makes it much easier/better to add more in-game music.
If in-game music is off (0% volume) then nothing will load, saving time and memory.
Other changes are afoot and updates on the way. Keep track of the news here, or join the emailing list on the Cornutopia Software website for news as it happens.
It's a big year for Flatspace, 2023 marks the 20th anniversary of the release of the first game. We'll be having a few special events and sales this year.
Some Flatspace news coming later today, but this time it'll only be via the Cornutopia Software mailing list for scheduling reasons. You can sign up here:

All Game Sale Now On
The Great Steam Autumn Sale is now on, and for a few days all of the Cornutopia Games have 33% off. Flatspace, Future Snooker, Future Pool, Taskforce, Radioactive AND Yinyang, are all taking part, plus the essential Flatspace DLC if you want to upgrade your game. It's the perfect time to grab a new game.
The Official Flatspace Soundtrack album is now available to stream and purchase digitally on the Mark Sheeky Bandcamp page, and you can order one of the last two copies of the First Edition CD-R version. The Flatspace album was released in 2007 and 20 CD-Edition copies were made using laser-printed matt paper. A few were sold alongside the old DVD-cased copy of Flatspace, which was also limited-edition, hand numbered, release.
Just two copies of the CD album remain.
A few more of my albums are on my Bandcamp page too, including those which have been professionally replicated on CD. I'll soon be adding much, if not all, of my large music back-catalogue (around 50 albums, made since 1999) there, so if you are on Bandcamp, do Follow there, or sign up to the mailing list on marksheeky.com to hear when the update is complete.
PS. For the die-hard collector, there are posters and stickers of the album art available too! Links on the album pages on marksheeky.com.
