Hi friends, I wanted to let you know that editions of Mountain are available for bidding / purchase through the digital art-sales platform Nifty Gateway - Click the link below to visit...... - MOUNTAIN TIME SERIES - digital editions - Only 17 hours remain to bid on the Millennium video. This captures 1,000 years of Mountain.
What is this all about? You can right click and save these videos, but collecting them costs money. They are tokenized on the blockchain, verifying who owns them. This is all new technology, heres a short FAQ on the Nifty Gateway site. ~ This strange year began with an incredible installation of Mountain in Japan - I posted about it on twitter today. It was sadly cut short.
In other news, I'm currently selling my Instagram account for $5,000,000, in case you know someone. Mountain itself is still $0.99. Wishing you great things, my friends. I'm grateful we're still here. mountain David

Hello friends, Today we are releasing a huge update to Mountain. Every single system has been improved, as well as every shader, particle effect, texture and model. We made about 400 optimizations, updates and fixes - I have summarized the main ones below. This was in fact more work than making the original! Check out this comparison:
This process began a year ago, it started by putting in some minor fixes, then got deeper as we realized how much better it could be. We are just a lot more experienced than we were in 2014. This was motivated because I wanted to get it right, but mainly as a thank you to you guys, who have been so patient and positive over the years. Your enjoyment, discussion, exploration and sharing of this game has been so incredibly encouraging... I cannot express enough gratitude to you all. Main updates + Different Mountain Types with unique flora + Improved Mountain shapes & appearance + HDR rendering, new color correction & post fx system + New cloud system and revamped environmental effects + Improvements and optimizations to all shaders + Re-written procedural flora systems, will produce more trees and plants with better arrangement + More tree and plant varieties added, with improved leaf, plant & tree dynamic effects + Addition of dynamic birds & butterflies + More artifacts + Music keyboard added to UI + Slow Motion mode + MIDI Control is now possible and works with any midi input device + More Secret modes to discover and improved old ones **Note - due to the scale of this update - you will lose your existing save!** So, please enjoy. If you like it, please give it a review & recommend it to your friends. Thank you so much, David +my instagram

ːmountainːMountain is on Sale this weekend only!ːmountainː It's 37% off - which is a rather inelegant number, but they wouldn't let us do 50% off because it's too low. In any case, we are happy to bring this to you at a reduced price. As always, without DLC or distractions. Now we are curious, what other languages would you like to see Mountain translated to? Please let us know. Thank you, as always, and please enjoy this picture of Mountain projected onto a building in Tokyo the other night.

Hi friends. First thing - thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for your support of this game. The fact that anyone might even read this is the most amazing thing to me, I am very grateful for your attention in this brief time we have on the planet. Second thing - there is a big update coming. You all deserve a big refresh and it's going to be happening on April 20th and of course it will be free. New things to look forward to: • Big performance improvement • Complete asset refresh - better graphics all round • More varied & realistic vegetation • Better Mountain shapes • 3X as many things can fall from space • All things now have sound interaction • 31 Steam Achievements • Steam Trading Cards, Badges, Emoticons, Profile BGs. Third thing - I have a totally new game coming out on Friday April 21st - for Mac & PC - called Everything. You can check out the gameplay trailer here and wishlist it now here. Your support of Mountain made this new game possible - and you will all be getting vouchers for it (which also apply to the launch discount). The vouchers are actually worth more than the price of Mountain - I just really wanted to say thank you. You have enabled me to keep my work independent. If you love Mountain, Everything is a much larger exploration of the same ideas. I really worked hard on it and I hope you enjoy it. So don't forget to wishlist it! Thank you all again.

We are really excited to launch on Steam! Here are some tips for Mountain: Leave it open - it's designed to run in the periphery of your life. Only interact with it when you feel like it. You can play Mountain while playing other games. If you are not playing it, it will play itself. If you're having an annoying storm or boring night, play a melody (using your keyboard) and time will accellerate. Certain melodies unlock certain modes which get saved in your songbook. Here are some to get you started: Blood mode : mmmmmm,mnab Snowglobe mode : bbbbbcb Fish : cxzxccc xxx cbb You can also trigger a thought by hitting period (.) You might recieve items on your Mountain. In this version of the game you can rearrange them by clicking & dragging - and do some other things. Have fun!
