It is news for me, I was waiting for the info about PC version and here it is so..yeah, that's news to me.

Looks awesome. Sounds like it'll be on steam eventually, so I'll pick it up if it ever comes there.

$2.99? I can afford tha- oh I'm 40 dollars in the hole.

How the- I can't afford a three dollar game. I'm going to get to the bottom of this.

You should protest against capitalism....

..and it plays awesomely with a mouse. Thanks for the heads up, Patrick!

"It will also be available shortly on Desura."

Brilliant, will pick it up when it comes out there.

When it comes to Steam I'll probably buy it.

Where did you get a not "this year" quote from? The only thing I've seen them say was that they were looking into it.

Needs to be on steam for me to buy it.. shame.

The last time I payed $2.99 for the PC ports of some XBLI games, I got a two-pack of some incredibly charming retro style RPGs. I see no reason why I shouldn't take that chance again.

No Steam, no sale, sorry.

I hate to be that guy, but I'll wait for Steam.

Just fyi for you steam hold-outers: It took me less than 30 seconds to create the GamersGate account for downloading the game. All they wanted was a user name and password, and used paypal to avoid any financial details.

It was literally faster than waiting for steam to load and finding the game.

man, the gamersgate website needs some work...

Guess I'm not playing Wizorb "this year".

Yep. Jerks.

WIIIIZZORBBB

Was charmed by what I saw in the QuickLook, decided to pick it up, and played for a bit.

I'm a Wizorb, and this is pretty great for 3 bucks.

You're a jerk.

The wait is over! I will now gladly play this game!

I really want to buy this again just to play it with a mouse, thank god its only $3

This game is outstanding, and it looks/plays great on XBLI. No brainer purchase, my friends.

I bought that Jakkgames Pong paddle deal last week and.. I need to find me an old PS/2 port mouse that isn't optical so I can hack it into a spinner, stat. Spinners RULE.

It sounds like you're on the cusp of living the dream. Be sure to make a video of this if you end up pulling it off!

Make another news story for this when it hits Steam, then maybe I'll consider getting it.

I'll wait for a PS3 version. In other words, probably forever. :( Too bad, because a PS3/PSP combo version sounds really interesting.

GOG.com and Steam is enough for me. I don't want to keep track of more services than that, so I will get it if it comes to steam.

I'm also on the "Waiting till it's on Steam" bandwagon. Seems like a missed opportunity there.

Was really hoping for a Mac version. This looks like fun!

Y DOESN'T WINDOW MODE WORK!! MY EYES :/!

I didnt know this was already on Xbox Live. Just checked and I have enough points to buy it.

I'll be holding out to buy this until it's on Steam. I don't mind paying extra to cover the Steam commission costs. Hell, double the price, it'll cost less than my breakfast this morning.

@XII_Sniper: Hey, the guys do a lot. A typo here and there is to be expected.

I wasn't pointing out a typo, it just literally said "wont be coming to steam 'this year'", so I said "I won't be buying this game 'this year'"

I just feel like people who don't publish on steam need to learn that there are people who like the convenience of one account, and having them already know my credit card. A game like Wizorb is a sort of impulse purchase for me, and if I can't buy it in one click and I'm putting in my Visa and address, that's too much time for me to think "Nah, I have like 30 other games I should finish first".

I'm pretty sure they want to be on Steam. It's probably Steam that can't be bothered by a small indie dev during the busiest time of the year videogame release-wise.

Oh well then. It's not like I'm missing much either way. It's not exactly the deepest game out there.

I'll be looking forward to it on Steam next year, then.

I purchased it, and I really enjoy it. I recommend waiting for the Steam purchase, though. Achievements!

Ditto. I'm through managing multiple game managers. New games need to be really compelling if I'm to get out of my Steam comfort zone :|

I am eagerly awaiting your arrival next year.

Amen Brother. If it was on Steam, i'd pick it up right now. Since it's not, I'll wait until it's on Steam/buy it in a Indie Bundle.

I'm a Wizorb, and that looks blocked up

You're a jerk, jerk.

No Steam, No sale.

It looks pretty awesome. But I've got so many indie games on my plate right now because of all the indie bundles. I'm addicted to The Binding of Isaac and I'm trying my hardest to like Blocks That Matter (I love the aesthetic, but the gameplay doesn't click with me) from the Humble Bundle. And I've hardly touched ARES, Nimbus, Sanctum and Gemini Rue from the Indie Royale bundle yet. And now I've got to add this to my list of indie things to play. And there is a new Indie Royale bundle starting in a few days. Man, that's a lot of games.

Also, GamersGate is a great digital distribution platform. I've got several games on it and it's one of the best Steam competitors around. I know it's convenient having all your games on one service, but that shouldn't be a big enough issue to stop people from buying a game like this. Heck, if you want it on steam that badly at you could buy it again if/when it comes to steam, and you get the lovely warm fuzzy feeling of supporting an awesome indie developer not once, but twice. And at $2.99 it's no serious financial burden to yourself.

Y U NO MAKE FOR MAC?

"Oh and a Mac and a Linux port are also in the works (^_^)."

I love that smaller digital download sites like Gamers Gate are getting attention but I having no purchases there already I really don't want to add my credit card to another service. Bad enough I have Origin and Games for Windows Live in addition to Steam. I kinda want to keep it centralized you know?

With that said 2.99 is a price that if I choose to impulse buy isn't going to break anyone's wallets so no harm in that I guess.

No Steam? I'll give Gamersgate a try. I don't need more game download services, though.

Why are all cartoony old mens' noses pink or red when the rest of their face is normal?

Y U NO MAKE FOR MAC?

Yeah, it`s a great game. I really enjoy it. Friggin` great price too.

I see the ``No steam, no sale`` guy isn`t here, yet. Could you still put the game on your steam games list and launch it from there anyway without the overlay
