Back to the beggining…

One of our first games - the original rollerdude

When we first started making games, we used a tool called GameMaker – a simple drag and drop affair. This was probably 6 years or so ago, and we were nothing but kids who wanted to make games. Since then, we have been through many websites, brands and game concepts – learning lots along the way. Most of our earlier stuff was a bit of a mess, none of us really knew what we were doing, presentation and finish quality was poor and out ability to organize any form of deadline was nonexistent (we went for over two years without ever finishing a game!).

Now, however, we believe we have settled with a brand we love and are planning to churn out high quality, professional games on a regular basis. Woo!

And for those of you who interested, I present you with a few of the first games we ever made.

They are .zip files which contain the .exe game and possibly some other files – just extract the zip file (right click – extract all) and run the game!

Rollerdude
Bubble
Tank Commanda’
Pig Fling 2

I recommend Rollerdude (a tricky little platformer) as the best game to try, it was a huge viral success at our school and greatly annoyed the network admins and teachers. We are currently remaking it into a swanky flash version and it should be one of our next releases – this is your little preview of what the engine will feel like.
