After several grueling nights of hard labor, we've officially launched our Post Apocalyptic Robot Game (PARG) onto the interweb. It's certainly not bad for the time frame that we launched it in... about a week of after-hours "work." The environment and most of the character artwork is by Justin Gerard. The "Boss Bot" is compliments of Cory Godbey and other bot designs we're contributed by Zach Franzen, Hallie Gillett. The site design is by Matt Mantooth and the rock-your-face-off theme music is by Ben Kammer. It was cool to see all of the contributions come together into one solid product. It was also a pretty good development challenge. This is probably one of the most truly-collaborative projects we've ever worked on. Now we just need to get someone to pay us to do this! And oh yeah, here's the link: Play Parg!

Next Friday, you, yes you, will be called upon to defend the earth from the upcoming "robocalpyse."

At Portland Studios, we are all about productivity and "bizzness" but between all the productivity and insane profit-margins myself, Justin Gerard, Cory Godbey and a few others have been working on an apocalyptic-robot-themed flash game. It's going to be epic.

Here's a little of the flash motion based on a sample robot from Justin (click to explode):

And you also may very well end up being attacked by Cory Godbey's DOOM BRINGER ULTRA ULTRA
