Torchlight
Posted on October 27, 2009

Today is launch day, and we couldn’t be more excited! We’re also scrambling to get Torchlight up on our site - we had some issues with wrapping it for DRM (at this point we’re going with Yummy but still, it’s been a ride). Please believe us, we will have it up as soon as humanly possible today –some of us were here all night doing last minute fixes. Also, given the issues we’d had, we aren’t able to offer the demo today, and at this point it came down to just putting the game up or delaying it to provide the demo as well. We figured you’d rather just get right to the game! We will put the demo up in the next day or two, but in the meantime, you can demo Torchlight at our partner sites: Steam, Perfect World, GamersGate, Gameware, and WildTangent. Thanks for your patience and support, we’re super psyched – and will announce when Torchlight is live on our site here and on Twitter.

Torchlight Partners

As Torchlight’s launch draws closer, we know many of you are chomping at the bit to not only play, but begin the modding with the Level Editor (note, we can’t call it the PrEditor: that’s apparently been copyrighted. The nerve! We’re hashing out official names now.)

We’re not bundling the tools with the game – the download would be laborious, especially for the folks who just want the game. So how do you get these wonderful toys? The tools will be available here on our site by the end of next week as a free, separate download. Once it’s on our site for free download, it will become available several other places, including www.runicgamesfansite.com, which is also hosting a Mod database. As soon as it’s ready, you’ll know – we’ll post the news here, on Twitter, and in the forums.

Thanks everyone – just a few more days! We can’t wait!
