Once again, launch time has arrived! Kid Tripp launches on the Microsoft platforms in just under two weeks, on Thursday November 19th! This means that you will finally be able to play the predecessor to Miles & Kilo on the Xbox One/One X/One S, Windows 10 PC and even the shiny new Xbox Series X/S! What are you waiting for?

19th March 2020

It is launch time again! Miles & Kilo launches on the Nintendo 3DS eShop in just one week, on Thursday March 26th! The game runs at a silky smooth 60fps with stereoscopic graphics (where hardware supports it) on all Nintendo 3DS and 2DS systems. It even has a bigger display area than all the other versions of the game!

29th October 2019

Miles & Kilo launched today on Sony PS4 and Vita! As with Kid Tripp, the game support cross-buy so you get both platforms for the price of one - how neat is that? If that wasn't enough, each version has its own set of Trophies, so you can get two Platinums for the price of one!

The 3DS version of Miles & Kilo is still in development and should arrive early in 2020.

11th July 2019

It is time to announce what our next release will be: Miles & Kilo for Sony PS4 and Vita! If that news is not fantastic enough, we are taking the opportunity to also bring the game to Nintendo 3DS as part of the same re-writing process.

Once this work is complete, Miles & Kilo will be the first game that we have published on all current generation consoles. We expect the game to launch on all three platforms in Europe and the Americas before the end of 2019.

5th July 2019

One year after the original launch on Switch, the Miles & Kilo v1.2 patch is now live on Switch and Xbox/Win 10. As well as the Dragonfruit assistance item, this patch adds online leaderboards for Switch, a first for a Four Horses game.

25th June 2019

It is launch day once again! Kid Tripp has launched today on the Sony PlayStation 4 and Vita systems in America and Europe. It launched last week in East Asia courtesy of East Asia Soft. This momentous occasion marks a new milestone in the history of Four Horses - we now have at least one game on sale for every current-generation video game system.

So, now that is done, what next? There is a v1.2 patch for Miles & Kilo in development, but after that - we'll keep that under wraps just for now, but you can be sure that we're not going to be taking any breaks - we have far too much of a work backlog to stop and rest!

5th May 2019

It's been about a month and a half since Miles & Kilo launched on Windows 10 devices. So we should probably consider starting work on something else, right? Well guess what - we've not been resting, despite totally deserving a nice long rest! We've been busy trying to cram those huge pixels of Kid Tripp onto the Sony PlayStation 4 and Vita systems. Our attempts have not been in vain - both versions have been submitted to Sony for testing for release in Europe and we received the notification today (yes, a Sunday!) that they have started testing them.

What about America? We're just waiting for some ducks to be correctly aligned and then we'll get builds for that region submitted for testing also. We plan to launch in both regions simultaneously before Quarter 3, although nothing is guaranteed! Think you can't take any more fantastic news? Well stop reading now if that is the case because we are supporting Cross-Buy. That's right, unlike Nintendo platforms, it is possible to enable Vita and PS4 Cross-Buy so we are doing that! If we had our way, as long as you had bought Kid Tripp on one of your devices, you should be able to play it on any device.

22nd March 2019

It's launch day again! Miles & Kilo is now available worldwide on Xbox One and Windows 10 PC via the Microsoft store. These new platforms bring the additional features of Xbox Live Achievements and Leaderboards yet the price is the same as the Nintendo Switch version!

8th February 2019

Miles & Kilo is finally very close to release on Xbox One and Windows 10 Store. Microsoft are currently testing the latest submission build and we hope to have the results of that testing early next week. As long as there are no bugs to fix, we just need to set a launch date. Exciting times!

2nd November 2018

Happy Birthday to us! Four Horses is now 3 years old. In those three years we've managed to publish three games on Nintendo 3DS and Switch. Not too shabby. So, as our little treat to you, have some cake.

31st October 2018

Here's a quick update on what we're currently working on. Lately we've been getting Miles & Kilo running nicely on the Xbox One and Windows Store. We've recently finished getting the achievements working within Xbox Live and are right now getting the cloud based save game working. Once this is done, we need to add controller vibration, player stats and leaderboards. After a little bit of polish, localisation and testing it should be good to submit to Microsoft. Can't wait.

Miles and Kilo is bigger and more refined than Kid Tripp and will be crash landing onto the Nintendo Switch eShop later this year.

16th January 2018

We will begin work on the Nintendo Switch version very soon and when we do, there will be a blog about the development process and the progress of the conversion. When it starts, we'll post a link to it here. We may include some sneaky screenshots and videos of the work-in-progress build.

11th September 2016

The Digger Dan DX competition is now closed for new entries. The winner will be announced on the competition page just as soon as we can work out who has the earliest valid claim! There are two claimants whose entries came in within 47 minutes of each other, we just have to determine if the earlier one is valid. We don't want to be rewarding cheaters!

10th September 2016

Competition update:
We have received two claims for the competition prize so far, the first at 11:13pm on the 9th, and the next at 1:25am today. Don't give up hope, though! As yet, both these claims are unverified so you are still in with a chance of winning. Also, as mentioned below, if you are a Nintendo of America customer who bought Digger Dan after the update was launched, 25 hours will be subtracted from your entry time to negate the delay in getting the game available for sale in your region.

9th September 2016

Update:
Digger Dan DX is now available for purchase on the Nintendo of America eShop. It appeared on there around 25 hours after it went live for updating in American regions and for sale and update in Europe. To make things fair for customers who had to wait 25 hours before they could make a start on the competition, we have decided that any entries made to the competition for Nintendo of America customers who bought the game on or after September 9th will be treated as having being received 25 hours earlier. Proof will be needed to show that you are a Nintendo of America customer and when you bought the game, but this will be sorted after your claim is received.

It seems that the launch of the 1.1 patch of Digger Dan DX has not gone as smoothly as we had hoped. Existing customers in North America are able to update their copies of the game but, for unknown reasons, new customers cannot access the game page on the eShop. We are working with Nintendo of America to get this issue resolved as soon as possible.
We are aware that this gives new customers in that region a disadvantage with the competition and we are currently working out if it will be possible to take the launch delay into account when deciding who is the first to collect all 125 gold stars, so don't despair if you can't buy the game just yet, we'll sort things out so that the competition is fair. Just keep searching on the eShop for 'digger' until the game appears there.

8th September 2016

We are pleased to announce that Digger Dan DX has returned to the eShop around the world. To celebrate this occasion, we have launched a competition for the first player to earn gold stars on all 125 levels with a prize of £250. Check out the competition page for more details.

15th August 2016

Digger Dan DX has been updated and submitted to Nintendo ready to return to the eShop. As part of the update, 25 challenging bonus levels have been added free of charge. Existing owners will be able to update the game via the eShop to access the new levels.

9th July 2016

Digger Dan DX was removed from the Nintendo eShop earlier this week after a copyright infringement claim was raised against it by First Star Software, who own numerous copyrights and trademarks relating to the Boulder Dash games. After some very amicable discussions with First Star Software, the issues have been resolved and Digger Dan DX will be returning to the Nintendo eShop in the near future. More information will appear here as soon as we know when it will be on sale again.

19th May 2016
