It's our two year anniversary! We're celebrating with behind the scenes footage and outtakes and reviewing LIMBO for the 360!
We've been making Bytejacker for two years now, which is surprising for a couple of dudes that can't even keep a goldfish alive. In honor of this auspicious occasion, we're answering viewer questions, taking a look behind the scenes, and checking out your birthday wishes.
We've also got a review of the first game of this year's Summer of Arcade, LIMBO.
XBLA, Platformer, Playdead, $15.00
We're two years into this show, guys. And if you've been watching for a while, you know how my tastes skew. I like my games dark, strange, cartoony, and atmospheric. Well, take a look at LIMBO, the first of this year's Summer of Arcade titles on XBLA. Looks like I've got a winner here. But what are the rest of you going to think?
Wherein we answer some of your burning questions. In this segment:
What equipment and software do we use on the show?
Why are there so many planes passing by?

Used the terms "scaling" and "ux experience" when she asked for details. I have learned a lot here in SF.
