It's 2013, a new year and new life.
Here at Breakfall, we've seen hard at work promoting Marvin's Mittens and getting it in the hands of the press, Youtube celebrities, bloggers, and more. We're getting astonishingly positive feedback that it's blowing us away. Recently we've been mentioned on one of our favorite Starcraft 2 casters, Sean "Day9" Plott, on one of his Day9 Dailys. This was huge for us and we just want to reciprocate the love.
More importantly, we've been reading every comment and review from as many places we can find. We are actively listening to people and one of the biggest things we agree on is that we want to see Marvin's Mittens on Steam. We would love to be on Steam but it's a massive climb to the top of the Steam Greenlight mountain and the only thing we need are your votes and support. Please go to our Greenlight page, vote us up, and most importantly spread the word. Desura has been great to us but we want to be on Steam as well and get Marvin's Mittens in the hands of as many people as we possible can. We want people to experience the wonder and follow Marvin on his grand adventure to find his lost mitten.

As a Christmas game it's delightful. It's a platformer but with no way to take damage and a very forgiving set of platforms it's extremely accessible. That's certainly a boon because the graphics and sound are perfect for a "family" game and those of us who still like a little storybook wonder from time to time. It's a very bookish art style and the scenery has a great hand drawn style. Combined with the original music score I couldn't help being reminded of watching "The Snowman" when I was still…

Thanx for the game
Thank you Andrew for providing keys for a giveaway!
Thanks for the free key, Andrew. Will try this out later.
If there's any need for a Spanish (Latin America) translation, by the way, I'll do it for free. :)
I just wanted to say thanks to the developer Andrew for providing keys for a giveaway of this game!
Marvin's Mittens is a pretty cute game which I think can thrill kids and adults!
If you want go and check out my (german) Let's Look At Youtube.com
Hi there, Met you guys at Global Game Jam in Ottawa bought the game right away as soon as I came home!
What an incredible game! Amazing art style and Music, Gameplay is addicting and its so beautiful! $5 was definitely worth it to help support you guys... keep up the awesome work :)
This game is a treasure to play. Pure fun and wonder! When Marvin's Mom says "Marvin, it's time to come in!", I find myself saying "Awww" at almost the exact moment Marvin does every time. You want to keep exploring and finding the snowflakes and look for your mittens!
If you like, I can help to translate too. (I am not an expert in writing in English but I have no problem to translate/understand and I have a very good level in French (Thing that is rarer now, unfortunatly), and finally I am completionist/perfectionist (sometimes a little too much) when I do something that I like).
If I asked for the translation, it's because I have a little cousin who would like the game but he don't know anything in English (or any other language) and get rapidly mad.
Playing the game doesn't really require any knowledge of English outside navigating a couple of simple menu options. Unfortunately, as I mentioned already, we're just not able to do the technical tasks required for proper localization right now. Thanks for the offer, though, and hopefully you can show your cousin how to save, load and quit, and then he can enjoy the game!
Wow, that's a very generous offer! I think localization is currently beyond our scope right now, but it's very appreciated!
