Zorya is the second stand-alone record by Amanita Design’s lead music composer Floex and it’s out today!

Tomáš ‘Floex’ Dvořák created music for our games Samorost2, Questionaut and Machinarium but at the same time he was all that years composing, recording and endlessly re-working his own album until now when he decided it’s good enough for the release. You should check it out, because the music on the record is atmospheric, inspiring and beautiful.

Listen to the whole album here.

CD / LP / digital DL also available via our own website.

Finally, the release date of Floex‘s new album Zorya is near, and you’ve got the chance to pre-order the album as of today! The collection of 11 songs packaged in digipack CD flawlessly designed by Jirka Libansky comes out on September 26th. The album is released by Minority Records in cooperation with Amanita Design. Every CD preorder & order via Minority Records online shop comes with 1″ Zorya button.

We are getting feedback from people experiencing some troubles with Machinarium on their iPads that it doesn’t work properly or that they found a bug. First of all thanks for the feedback, it’s really helpful! We are sorry for the bugs. One update is already on the way and another one is in the works. Also here is a couple of advices for those who have more serious troubles with the game:

1. If you bought the iPad2 version of Machinarium and you have only iPad1, please contact Apple App Store support for refund or wait until you update your iPad to iPad2 or iPad3.

2. If you bought the iPad2 version of Machinarium and the game is crashing even you have the iPad2, please do the following, it should help:
Double-tap the home button to see the list of running apps. Press and hold on Machinarium icon and in a moment a little circle with a – in it will appear on every app. Tap the circle on all the apps in the bottom bar to completely close them. Then start the game again.

3. If the above doesn’t help, try to restart your iPad:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red “slide to power off” slider appears, and then slide the slider.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

Thanks!
