We are playing Drakkenridge right now - it's our biggest game yet - and we want a bit more time to polish the game :) Now coming out in early September 2025!

I've been hit like a truck with a disastrous news today: my long time friend, Richard (Squize) Myles passed away two weeks ago. He was 2 years older than me :(

I met him through my Flash work back in 1999 and we became fast friends. His corrosive sense of humor, doubled with a sheer brilliance at coding and designing fun games immediately impressed me, and very quickly we started collaborating on Browser and Mobile games. In total, we made 8 games together, between 2009 and 2015. The biggest of them all, the Outpost Trilogy being a massive hit, that led to the creation of Garage Collective, Richard being the other co-founder.

I've also used his talents within my advertising career, including a Mobile game that got us a Silver Addy in 2015...

He came to visit us twice in the US and I have such found memories of our time together in New Orleans!

Later, he moved on to develop his dream project, Foxen, while I shifted to VR. Even though we parted ways, working on different projects, we kept in touch often through private messages and twitter.

I was hoping one day to surprise him by visiting England - I guess I waited too long :(

Goodbye my Friend, and thanks for turning me into a proper game developer: I learned a LOT from working with you!
You marked my life, and I will remember you forever!

Wonder how DrakkenRidge plays? Here's a 2.5 minutes of R'Sunkun, the Fiskradders Island, gameplay montage (a lot of the sound and voice is still temporary)

There are days where work can fell like a slog, and some when everything goes just right: those last 2 days were super efficient! I was able to create a brand new Throne room AND a new, much larger Inn for Drakken Isle in just 48 hours... Woot!

I realized I was getting short on NPCs for DrakkenRidge, so I spent the last 2 days making 20+ new NPCs variations (and will most likely need double that).
Each model is around 500 triangles, with one 256sq texture (hence the "blocky" look).

Haven't shared work related stuff in a while: there's a LOT of unsexy stuff that goes into making a game, but yesterday, late into the night, I finally have a glimpse of what our new Dungeon, Drakken Isle Sewers will look like! :)
