July 26th, 2018 will mark one full, amazing, rich, beautiful, glorious, painstakingly long year of people playing a game where they don't push a red button. As everyone knows, this game has gone down as one of the most important events in human history. The Red Button was nominated for a Pulitzer prize in February, was considered for the MacAuthur Genius Grant, and History courses at Yale and Harvard have started teaching Red Button 101 classes. In fact, UCLA will now offer a prestigious MBA in the Red Button Arts this Fall. My God, what an astounding time to be alive.
The unshaven team at Cercle has been working day and night and day, furiously typing algorithms into our coffees and downing cup after cup of delicious computer, all in the desperate attempt to complete "Don't Push The Red Button: Anniversary Edition" before the 26th.
But we need your help.
We have been told by our accounting and law team that in order to distribute this experience to the widest audience we need to ask for a certain amount of a newly discovered resource called: "Money."
If we receive enough of this so-called "money," we will be able to get "Don't Push the Red Button: Anniversary Edition" in front of the eyes of the world. And then, everyone, yes, EVERYONE, will know the glory of the red button and will quake in its presence.
TL;DR: I'm asking for money to finish and put Don't Push the Red Button on STEAM.
And anyone who donates will get their name in the credits of the game.
Anniversary Edition Features: Optimized Code- No Lag! New never-before-seen Content/Time Events! Online Leaderboard - Compete to not push the button longer than anyone else! Gamepad Support! Linux Build! (Potential VR Version?!) Added/Fixed Languages including Korean. (By request of Markiplier.)
why does this game even exist its so mean!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! bad gayme!!!!! it maked me sad when i touch it. called me total n00b but i touch it! it told me to! so i retry and dont press and it was trying make me die so i had to click and it said i lost again game so bad and mean!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok so on the wall on the start with all the other languages you put some hebrew text (probably with google translate) 2 times. one of them was just random letters and the other was a nice try of saying "push the red button" in hebrew. the problem is that you got the grammer all wrong!
so here is the right way to say push the red button in hebrew:
"לחץ על הכפתור האדום"
and sinse the other option is that you DID wrote it the correct way but the words flipped, just try to fix it, ok...
Thank you for the heads up! I've had so many people point it out to me since markiplier's video and it is fixed in the newest version which comes out later this month! Sorry about that!
Is the "Itulak ang pulang buton" a Filipino translation? If so, that's great! I got to hear Mark speaking Filipino lol. Can I just request for you to change it into "Pindutin ang pulang pindutan"? It's a more accurate translation. Thanks. It's a nice game btw
I'd like to invite you to take part in this year's Game Development World Championship! This is a pretty fun game it's a simple and doesn't take itself seriously, but it's still well made. You actually get some time passed by just reading all the stuff on the walls. My only complaint is that the mouse aim was a bit wonky in the browser version, I had to aim on floor to finally press the button.
This game is.. WOW. Patience truly is a virtue, one of which we don't have late at night recording. We managed to get to black belt level, and am curious as to what happens when you wait the entire time. Here's a video of us goofing off and our reactions, though!
Hi there, I just wanted thank you for making this game, it was a lot of fun. I loved all the little pop ups and stuff that tried to incentivise us to press the button. It did test my patience but it was worth it. I also made a video of me playing your game, I hope that's okay.
Interesting "game" unfortunately my compulsion to push the button got the better of me, but I did have a good laugh at the fake posters around the room first.
This game was brilliant. I thought it would never run out of ideas. The button is alive and has a will of its own! I made it 60 minutes without pushing the button. How long did you last?

average mind of a 5yr old.

You got it! Thank you for your help!
Personally I did not want to press that red button, because there was no finnish language.
I mean come on, we are special enough to get our own "Press the red button."
Even Sweden got one! You can do better than that.
Olen täysin samaa mieltä ja vilpittömästi anteeksi. Suomi on ihana maa ja ansaitsee paikkansa seinälle.
if you give me an accurate translation, I’ll put it on the wall in the anniversary edition. :)
How about just "Paina punaista nappia." Simple but solid, am I right?
Wow! Look at this!
Markiplier played!
Can you make a Linux edition? :C
Note taken!
the text in hebrew is oppiset and not real words
I had another person tell me recently and it will be fixed in the next version!
It has been over 2 hours and the game isnt over yet, how much longer is this

I wanted to push the red button for the little dog! But it wouldn't let me!

I got Win&Special Achievement
I got to 42:23 and the game froze so I count that as a win.
You found it!!! Under Five get a Prize!
Sorry for the freeze! I'll officially go ahead and say that you won.
This was pretty fun but I couldn't hold out too long.
Its so hard I made it 30 minutes without pushing the button :D
This game is.. WOW. Patience truly is a virtue, one of which we don't have late at night recording. We managed to get to black belt level, and am curious as to what happens when you wait the entire time. Here's a video of us goofing off and our reactions, though!
I got to 11:31 then it crashed on web :( I should have listened to the warning. XD

Nerdvine.
13 minutes then i got bored BROWN BELT YEAAAAAAAAh
So much button...so little time. Great game!
I did not expect there to be so much in this game lol I could see myself just waiting for an hour to see what happens!
Interesting "game" unfortunately my compulsion to push the button got the better of me, but I did have a good laugh at the fake posters around the room first.
This game was brilliant. I thought it would never run out of ideas. The button is alive and has a will of its own! I made it 60 minutes without pushing the button. How long did you last?
This video had me rolling!! You totally get the idea and your philosophical interpretations were wonderful! Well done. Well done.
This was both amazing, and abusive on my mind. I thought I could resist, but the peer pressure was too much for me! Here's my video on it.
love this! Your reactions are perfect! Thank you for sharing!
I WANT THE SOUND TRACK!!!!!
like how you can't even leave... i honestly expected a... TO BE CONTINUED. PRESS RED BUTTON TO READ>>>><<<<<<<
