What happened to Full Pipe on Steam?

Chauncey · 11-30-2010, 06:51 AM

I planned to buy it today and it appears to be gone or broken. It's still on my wish list but I get an error when trying to load it's store page. Any ideas?

If you search, it only finds the demo; but the demo also leads to the store page which is apparently broken. It's annoying.

Maybe in combining the demo with the game, as was done for a lot of games (single page for main game with a "Download the demo" link) they messed up on this one...

The non-Steam site is still live; just Googled "Full Pipe game" and there it was.

I just noticed this too. I was going to write a recommendation for my Steam friends.

Same here. Was one of the first indie game on Steam, such a shame it isn't available anymore...

And the recommendation page leads to an error :

Failed to load web page (unknown error).-310
Failed to load web page (unknown error).

Please Valve, bring back Full Pipe! Steam was the only way to buy this intriguingly odd adventure.

(FYI, you can still download the demo with steam://install/4610
You can even add the game to your wishlist by using its ID [4600] in the wishlist url.)

Well, it no longer appears on the 1C Company web site, and it was apparently published through them. I would have to guess that 1C either dropped them or failed to renew, and PipeStudios have not found any other channel as yet. As Steam's contract likely was with 1C rather than with PipeStudio directly, I would have to guess that Steam can't bring it back... more's the pity.

I HAVE IT ON STEAM >:3
They should make a "TF2" item (like a Pin or Hat) for the people who have "Full Pipe"

Haha. Sure, why not? What would it be though? Maybe a rusty pipe skin for one of Scout's bats? The glasses the main character wears could be a Medic Misc. item.

Ah, but when did you buy it?

I bought mine possibly a year or so ago...

Today I discovered the existence of this game and the fact that I can't even consider purchasing it. Oh the irony...

Axel and Pixel is similar, as are Machinarium and Samorost 2; none of them, though, have the seriously twisted sense of humour of this game.
