Boy was I excited to get the art above in my inbox. Courtland turned my on to LAZYMILLS stuff a couple of years ago. Her work is sharp, kinetic and unique. Naturally I was tickled when her version of gunner greeted my eyeballs. I don’t know where gunner is going or what she’s doing, but I definitely don’t want to be in her way… Oh and the best part is, she did Stabb too. More on that later.

Just for you! All new Vegas Teddy Wallpaper. Vegas Teddy hasn’t appeared in the Stabb Gunner series yet, but rest assured she’s coming. She’s twisted, the last thing you want, is a psycho in a bear suit on your ass.

Working on these piece was kickass. Especially the part where, way out of character, I decided to begin working before checking my dimensions first. I opted to eyeball it (never a good idea). Turns out I’ve been working digitally way too long now. When all was said and done my guestimated size was a mere 2 pixels off the mark. Man, I’m either awesome or I need to work on my social life…

Right now we’re enjoying a nice long streak on the App Store “What’s Hot Section”. Pinball Shuffle has been doing it’s thing, just chilling and getting some love from Mac users. I’m happy people are responding so well to our Stabb Gunner Pinball Series. We strayed a bit from the mold when we were designing Pinball Shuffle and Massacre. This is just another case of, “make content for you and the audience will come”. Thanks to all of you players out there, we’ll keep doing our thing and sharing it with the world : ).

People have been kind to us and we want to give back! As a special thanks we’re giving away some free redeem codes for the iTunes and App Store versions of Pinball Shuffle. Email info@thefictory.com to get your free code while they last. Make sure you specify whether you want the OSX or iOS version.

We at the fictory are super supportive of our team’s endeavors. Especially when their work starts getting the recognition it deserves. FUBAR 2: Empire of the Rising Dead has been nominated by IGN as BEST COMIC ANTHOLOGY of the YEAR! This comes as no-surprise to anyone who’s read either or both of the two volumes. I remember when Jeff first began work on FUBAR. I think I said something like, “Zombies… Really?” I just want to thank Jeff for making me eat those words in the best way possible. By creating killer content.

The international FUBAR Contributing Team is way too large to properly congratulate here. But I’d feel remiss if I didn’t mention a big Congrats to Steve “the bear” Becker. Ever since that fella came on board, the series gained a certain maniacal brand of style and purpose. In the interest of efficiency I’m just loading my Congratulations Shotgun now and firing in their general direction. Yeah, that’s a thing.

So what are you waiting for? Go Buy FUBAR Volume One and Two right now!!!!
Oh and get you some zombie shooting targets while you’re at it too!

Above is the super successful Kickstarter Video our parent company (Postage, Inc.) did for them a couple of months back. The campaign is over, but if you want to hear Jeff’s Sultry voice or see zombies moving around the screen give it a view.

We’re Happy to announce the most recent update to Pinball Massacre. Version 1.02 is now available in iTunes and the App Store. As an ongoing effort to improve your gaming experience, we’ve revamped the menus and are already working on subsequent updates! Enjoy Pinball Massacre Version 1.02!

We’ve recently made several long overdue improvements to the site. Not a huge design overhaul but just some general tiding of URL structure and streamlining. Since Stabb Gunner is becoming a much bigger part of the Fictory Pie, we’ve created it’s own dedicated PAGE. The sidebar has also been tidied up significantly, there you can find the hottest, most current stuff. We know you’ll dig the improvements!

We are currently wrapping up production for the all new Pinball Massacre follow up, Pinball Shuffle. Featuring vast improvements on an already entry to the series, Pinball Shuffle raises the bar for our studio. It’s like the first game, but more… more everything. Stay tuned for more updates. Very soon!
