We have finally submitted the game for Apple’s approval last night. The release date is now set on September 8th. Unfortunately, the game needs quite a lot of memory and fast CPU so it works well only on iPad 2. However there are no compromises in this version and it looks great on tablet. We apologize to all iPad 1 owners!
We are also working on Android version for capable Android tablets and also on RIM’s Playbook version.
It’s starting to be a bit boring to test Machinarium on iPad over and over again, but the good news is the game is almost finished and ready for submitting!
Demo of PS3 version of Machinarium at the Sony booth at E3. The game will be available on PSN this fall.
We are glad to report that limited LP reissue is underway, it’s an edition of 245 hand-numbered copies on black vinyl with different color on the rear side of the jacket, again contains three art reproductions by Adolf Lachman and features a coupon with a code to download MP3/FLAC versions of the album. This edition is not signed by Tomas Dvorak.
Preorders of this edition are accepted now at www.minorityrecords.com and LPs will ship on December 8th. Be quick this time to reserve your copy!
Machinarium and Amanita Design have been nominated for the Milthon European Games Awards!

We released the game DRM free which means it doesn’t include any anti-piracy protection, therefore the game doesn’t bother players with any serial codes or online authentication, but it’s also very easy to copy it. Our estimate from the feedback is that only 5-15% of Machinarium players actually paid for the game. If you decide to buy the game, you can be sure you’ll support directly the developers, not any big publisher or distributor.
Listen to this pirate song composed by Tomas Dvorak specially for this occasion:
