  • Tiamat Crashes - 12 February 2016

    It has been reported that Tiamat X is crashing for a lot of players. We have been doing some investigations into this and it would appear that since the latest Steam Client update that the game is been crashing for some people. As we have not issued any updates recently we suspect that this is directly related to the Steam Client update and are currently looking into this to see if there is anything that we can do our side. Please bear with us and apologies for the inconvenience. ***** UPDATE ***** 12-Feb-2016@19:10GMT We have located the issue and whilst it is related to the Steam client update the problem actually exists in the middleware that we used to create Tiamat X. Whilst the middleware developer did release a fix to this issue they failed to notify their clients of this critical Steam game breaking issue, so we only just found out about it this evening. We are currently testing…

  • Update coming soon - 8 August 2015

    Later on this weekend we intend to release a new build of Tiamat X (1.4). This new build addresses the following issues: Addition of flashing projectiles (bolts). With autofire enabled, pressing fire stops shooting. Player ship moves slowly back to idle rather than snapping back to idle. Windowed games are now allowed. Between level story picture and text added. Keyboard controls are now configurable. Various bug fixes & code enhancements. We have noticed a few gamers have mentioned the keyboard controls not working correctly and that they are unable to move diagonally when using the keyboard. This is not caused by the game itself, but is caused by something called keyboard ghosting. We highly recommend the use of a game controller with Tiamat X. If you are interested in finding out more about keyboard ghosting, have a look at this explanation: http://www.microsoft.com/appliedsciences/A…

  • Thanks very much for your feedback. - 2 June 2015

    We would like to thank you for all your feedback thus far and are going to be looking at it and consider implementing some of the suggestions. We have currently changed the drop rate of the cards reducing it considerably. Also we would like to take the opportunity to reiterate (as per the game specifications) that due to the underlying middleware that Tiamat X is only supported to run on Ubuntu Linux. Further details are included in the specifications on the store page. Furthermore whilst we have mentioned that only the keyboard control option is available on Ubuntu (due to issues we encountered during our testing), some people have reported that they have been able to successfully use a wired Xbox 360 controller.

Short description

Featuring six levels of intense shooting action, Tiamat X is a rip-snortin tribute to the side-scrolling space shooters of yesteryear, and would be right at home blazing away on the screen of a booming, beer-stained arcade cabinet.

About this game

The evil Choazid Empire has launched a surprise attack on your homeworld, establishing a heavily fortified base from where their forward assault group burrows deep underground, capturing subterranean lifeforms and transforming them into vicious biomechs. With it being only a matter of time before the Choazids start converting your people, it's up to you to take the controls of one of the few remaining Tiamat dragonship prototypes: the X class fighter, a craft capable of immense firepower - provided you pick up enough upgrade caches during a mission where you must dodge and blast like there's no tomorrow. Featuring six levels of intense shooting action, Tiamat X is a rip-snortin tribute to the side-scrolling shooters of yesteryear, and would be right at home blazing away on the screen of a booming, beer-stained arcade cabinet. As such, your PC will have to do, and it is much to the designer's regret that he can't plumb a coin-slot into his rig for that truly authentic seaside amusement-park experience. Get some big speakers, though. Really, we do recommend them for this game. Key features include: Auto fire - this is primarily intended as an accessibility option and allows the player to not have to worry about using a fire button. Quick fire - don't like mashing buttons/keys, then this is for you. Press and hold to fire. Color blind filter - this filter adjusts the game thereby making it more colour blind friendly. We just hope we have got it right! Six levels of intense shooting action. Original music score. Steam Achievements. Steam Leaderboards. Steam Trading Cards - featuring artwork designed exclusively for these cards!.

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $1.99
  • Highest observed: $1.99

Tiamat X's USD price history spans from Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $1.99, the highest is $1.99, and the first visible tracked price is $1.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Tiamat X's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $1.99, from Sep 23, 2026 through Sep 23, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $1.99. The latest run records $1.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $1.99
  • Current list price: $1.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Tiamat X at $1.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
