mastervone welcome program you have only two


mastervone:

Welcome, program! You have only two choices: Games, or immediate deresolution! Luckilly, you can bring one or two, or even three of your “friends" onto the Grid. Not so lucky: only one of you will survive.

Gridlike is now available for iPad on the Apple App Store. It’s a two-to-four player lightbike game that we’ve been working on on and off since before Tron: Legacy was released.

We released a game! :D We were basically done with this game after a week-long game hacking lan party three years ago, but weren’t quite happy with the result, and there was this one annoying collision bug we never got around to fixing. Every game making lan party since, we’ve said that we’ll patch it up and release it, but things like CLOP (don’t click.), Candy Box (don’t click!!), Deathtroid (do click!) and just general procrastination got in the way. (We’re horrible procrastinators).

Last week, we had another game making LAN, (chronicled in my dev diary), and managed to both finish up Gridlike and start a new game, Tanks!

We’ve set the price to free for the first week, so go check it out! Let us know if anything’s weird, buggy or boring.
