Adventure Game Demetrios Available Now on Xbox One

18 years ago, on my first PC, I created a project in Visual Basic named Demetrios. It was akin to a fan game of Broken Sword and other adventure classics like Discworld and Gabriel Knight — I loved the idea of an average Joe becoming involved in a great mystery. With Demetrios, I put that idea to the extreme while adding a very personal touch of silly, unexpected humor. I completed the original Demetrios in 2001 but never released it. The market (at the time) was unfriendly for a small developer and I still had to complete my studies. Thankfully… Continue reading Adventure Game Demetrios Available Now on Xbox One

Thumper Unleashes Rhythm Violence on August 18

Thumper is finally coming to Xbox One on August 18! We call Thumper a “rhythm violence” game, an uncompromising blend of classic rhythm-action, blistering speed, and brutal physicality. Over nine epic levels, you’ll face punishing obstacles, menacing bosses, and a maniacal giant head. And oh yeah, you are a space beetle. Back in 2009, my co-developer Brian Gibson and I were blown away by the sudden wave of groundbreaking and successful indie games on Xbox 360. Classics like Braid, Super Meat Boy, and Castle Crashers inspired us to quit our jobs, build our own game engine, and start crafting Thumper… Continue reading Thumper Unleashes Rhythm Violence on August 18
