If you haven't played Overboard! yet - the reverse whodunnit where you are the femme fatale - then now might be the perfect time to do it. Veronica's pushed her husband overboard - but without your help, it's Sing Sing as soon as the boat lands in New York.

We're just saying, this might not be the last we've seen of her...

Come and hang out with Overboard!'s narrative lead, Jon Ingold, as he plays the game and digs up its secrets: how it was made, what bits slipped through, which bits got left out. Murder mystery design, characters, dialogue, and generally being excited about interactive narrative.

Here at inkle we make games with lots of words, that combine together in complicated ways. Every playthrough of one of our games is different - sometimes a little, sometimes a lot. That's always meant that we've been afraid to try translation.

Until now.

Thanks to the efforts of a single, fan translator, as of today, Overboard! is now fully playable in Spanish, so now you can lie, cheat, steal, murder, blackmail and burgle in the language of Cervantes and Picasso.

¡Disfrutad!

The translation has been achieved by creating an entirely new copy of the game's 30,000 word script, and weaving the translation into the existing logic and gameplay mechanisms: meaning the translator needed to be fluent in not two languages, but three - English, Spanish, and ink.

We're thrilled to announce that Overboard! has been nominated for two IGF awards!

The game was nominated for Excellence in Design and Excellence in Narrative. It also received Honourable Mentions for the Grand Prize, and for the Audio category (a good thing we can't win that, as Thomas Edison and Rachmaninoff aren't around to collect it.)

The results will be announced towards the end of March. With previous wins for Narrative for Heaven's Vault and 80 Days, we're crossing our fingers for the triple!
