Greetings all! Some of us developers from games such as
System Shock 2 and
Thief have decided to venture out on our own with a new studio called (
www.greyborn.com/studio) Greyborn Studios . We really wanted to get away from the red tape of "Big Publishing", focus on making fun games, and collaborate directly with other gamers.
We are starting small (but with quality!) and just released our first game to Greenlight. It's a puzzle game inspired by classic games such as
Adventures of Lolo and
Eggerland, as well as the dungeon puzzles found in the
Legend of Zelda games.
We would love your support in helping us get this project Greenlit! These small initial successes will allow us to grow and do even more ambitious things in the future.
For your consideration: (

Looks fun - reminds me a little of the old C64 classic Head Over Heels in terms of gameplay style.

Thanks for the support! We would absolutely love to work on a Shock-like game in the future. You guys will be the first to know when that happens!

I don't recall ever having played that game, but I'm certainly going to check it out. By the way ... I still love my C64. I actually have two working machines and a sizable collection of original games.

Upvoted and will definitely buy this at some stage. Are you also considering porting this to any consoles?
You've assembled quite a strong team there, so will be interesting to see what other games your studio develops in the future.

And you've never played HoH!?
Do so at the earliest convenience. It's one of my all time enduring gaming memories.
(I'm so jealous of the working C64 btw)

There was a remake of that game released a few years ago. Upgraded up to snes level graphics. Should be available online if you do a search. Used to be available over at remakes.org.

Another question. Given that many of the games cited on your team page were renowned for their innovative gameplay at the time, what are your reasons for wanting to utilise "proven gameplay" from yesteryear with modern-day technologies (as per your mission statement) rather than wanting to innovate gameplay?

3 - Mike, David Bax, and myself. Also, once we grow to where we can hire employees I could see that number growing... ;)
