Press & Inquiries

Press Coverage

We love talking to press about what we're up to. Unfortunately we're extremely limited on time since we're busy making games. There is a lot of information about us and our games on this site and scattered around the Internet. If you represent a major media outlet and want to get in touch, drop us a line or send us a tweet from your official Twitter account.

Streaming and Let's Plays

Want to stream one of our games? So long as your stream abides by our Code of Conduct, and the game is already released, we're all for it! The (human-readable) details in our Intellectual Property statement.

Gimme Keys!

We only give out keys to press, and only in the lead up to a game launch. We define "press" as public media outlets (of any variety, including streamers) with a strong history of quality work and a sizeable following. We do not trade keys for reviews. We do not respond to requests for keys except as described below:

If you are an established channel (review site, magazine, YouTuber, Twitch streamer, etc) Tweet at us from your official account to request media access to our content (@bscotchShenani).

Interviews

Who do you want to talk to? About what? Tell us all that and we'll get back to you. We'll need to see the results of prior interviews you've given, and will expect that you'll have a different angle or be looking for different information from what we've provided in other public interviews.

Talks & Demos

Some of our talks are available on YouTube. It is enormously expensive for us to prepare presentations or demos, and to travel to events, so we only do so for major occasions or if you can offset those costs. We do not give talks to captive audiences (e.g. disinterested students). Tell us about your event and what you're wanting to hear about.

Modification/Use Of Our Intellectual Property

Are you looking for cross-promotion opportunites, or want to use our characters/art/writing for some other venture? Or perhaps you're a YouTuber, or want to make fan art? You should start with our Intellectual Property doc, and if you still have something to contact us about please do!

Our Games On Your Store/Platform

Some important considerations:

  1. We can only build for the target hardware and operating systems available to Gamemaker Studio.
  2. It is unlikely that we will distribute on a new platform unless you provide significant up-front incentive for us to do so.
  3. It is unlikely that we will distribute on a platform that competes with one on which we already distribute, without significant incentives to do so.

If you’re still interested, great! Drop us a note.

Have Us Make Your Game/App

We don't do work for hire, sorry. The tools and knowledge are out there, you can make your game yourself!

Your SDK/Ad Platform/Other Service

We aren't looking for any third party services. We keep things real simple over here. If you have something we need Google will probably lead us to you.
