I wrote some game reviews/articles a while ago in collaboration with Blockland creator Eric Hartman.
All 12 are now online again, thanks to Eric. I’m especially proud of the history of every MAME-supported baseball game from 1976-1985, the article we did for GameDev.net titled Learning from the 3000 Classics, and our review of the 90s arcade version of Aliens.
Check ’em out!
Ben, is it possible to let the PBE community finish the development? Grunts is the game that was built to improve the engine and is a result of the hard work and the capabilities of the Pushbutton Engine. I’m sure that the community can learn from the project and maybe even take it further. It would be tragic if all the effort for Grunts is lost.
No, unfortunately, it’s not possible. Sorry. 😦
loved your ‘building the best gameplay’ talk at Max by the way. inspiring 🙂
Thanks!
when will the grunts game be released? i noticed the site was down. would love to play it when finished. keep up the good work!
Unfortunately, I think as part of the situation described on the PushButton Labs site, we will not be able to complete development of Grunts. Believe me when I say that this is my biggest regret regarding PBL.
