We had joy, we had fun, we've got sales bright as the sun.

 

That's right, it's that time of year again:  the time of year where we celebrate one event that helps make Japan and Playism great, Comic Market, AKA Comiket. It's a twice-a-year gathering of all Japanese artists, great and small, who wish to show off their next great project. Since not everyone can meet the same deadline, it's important to have two events, one in summer and one in winter. Comics, animation, costumes and, of course, games are exhibited and sold at Comiket. There are so many great games that've come out of Comiket, not least of all being Astebreed, Neo Aquarium and Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae. We hold this sale in celebration and appreciation of Comiket, and we hope to do it justice.

 

If you've been pining for some amazing Japanese indie titles to help beat the heat and flush out your digital library, we have you covered! These great titles are being slashed dramatically, and the sale is running for the entire week!

 

If you missed Neo Aquarium in the recent Humble Bundle, here's your chance to pick up the seafood fighter at a sweet discount. The cute-yet-tough turn-based strategy game Rime Berta is at half price. Armored Hunter Gunhound EX is proud to offer up the deepest sale yet, and we're pleased to show that D4: Dark Dreams Don't Die is at all all-time low for both the basic and deluxe editions! Here's the complete list:

 

 

These prices are only going on Steam, and don't reflect what's on Playism at the time.  Keep checking Playism all week long for more news, updates and even some great reporting from Comiket this weekend! And who knows, maybe something for Playism is on the horizon...
