Orbz on Real Arcade

Hi Everyone,

About 30 minutes ago, Orbz became available for purchase on Real Arcade. This is part of a deal that GarageGames did with Real Arcade to get more exposure for GG games. Recent similar deals include Shockwave.com and Lindows Click-N-Run Warehouse.

The main reason for announcing this is that Real Arcade is running the latest Orbz 2.1 code and so there are many servers out there now to support this launch. We tried very hard to get Orbz 2.1 shipped on GarageGames today but ran into some snags with the the Linux and Mac version which need to be worked out. We full expect to be shipping the 2.1 update next week and will keep you posted.

If anyone is interested in helping to test the GarageGames build of Orbz 2.1, please send an email to Justin.mette@21-6.com. If you are running the update, you will be able to play on the new servers and against the Real Arcade crowd. What an epic battle that would be :)

Justin
