Sale on North American PS Store and Journey Demo
Posted by Aaron on May 22nd, 2012
So, yeah! This week only, flOw and Flower are both on sale for 30% off for everyone in North America, and 50% off for PS+ subscribers in North America. The sale also includes most of the other content related to flOw and Flower, such as the flOw expansion pack, Flower avatars, and a dynamic theme.
Also, we made a Journey demo! It’s short and doesn’t have multiplayer, so you’ll have to buy the whole game in order to experience multiplayer. Still, you can surf around in the happy sand land for as long as you want, or until you do want to buy the full game.
Check out the prices of everything after the break.
TGC turns 6, welcomes new Audio Director, Studio Manager

Diamante followed up with “TGC is in a really neat place: so familiar in terms of people and processes and emotions, but still very different from where the video game industry was the last time I teamed up with them. It should be a great ride.”
TGC at The Art of Video Games Exhibit at the Smithsonian
Posted by Aaron on May 11th, 2012
The Art of Video Games exhibit opened up in March to great fanfare from people all over the United States, and thatgamecompany was there to see it open. Kellee Santiago was part of a panel on Friday, and Robin Hunicke had her own talk on Saturday evening. We also had our first East Coast Community Meetup on Saturday afternoon, as well.
flOw (PC) and Flower (PS3) were both in the exhibit, and Flower is one of the five playable games, sitting alongside Myst, Super Mario Bros., Pacman, and The Secret of Monkey Island. It is an amazing honor to have Flower playable in the exhibit, let alone having flow and Flower just being there! We are very thankful to the exhibit’s curator, Chris Melissinos, everyone at the Smithsonian American Art Museum, and everyone else who volunteered and helped out with the exhibit.

To thank people for waiting so long for the soundtrack, Austin made some completely new tracks and improvements, such as having Tina Guo, who played the amazing cello music for our latest game Journey, in one of the tracks! The soundtrack has ten songs on it and is available for around US$5 worldwide on iTunes, and on the PlayStation Network for the same price in North America and Europe. Here’s the link for iTunes:
