Years In The Making
Golden Age Inspiration
From the Super NES to the Gamecube we were inspired by some
of the greatest classics of all time.
Modding Mentality
Modding games was the start to our attempts at making good
games even better. Our love of modding has stuck with us to this day.
Makers By Necessity
We began to realize that truly great games were becoming harder to find,
and if we were going to get what we wanted, we would have to do it ourselves.
Game Development
We're figuring out things as we go, developing out in the open.
Open-Source Technology
We use and develop free, open-source technology in order to serve our exact needs.
Bug Repellent
Using the Rust Programming Language helps us develop safe code to prevent bugs from infesting our games.
Documentation
Our blog will cover various projects, tools, and techniques, so you can see what it's like diving into the game industry.
