The Things to Come

The Internet, as we all know, is a graveyard filled with abandoned blogs and Geocities pages. It’s sad at first, but then you remember that the website for Space Jam is somehow still up and you feel a little bit better. It may also cheer you up to know that we have every intention of regularly updating Runner3 over the course of the game’s development (as well as after its release!). In fact, we’re going to commit to a minimum of one post a week from here on out. 

As some of you may recall, our development blog for Runner2 was A) updated regularly and B) not afraid to delve into the nitty-gritty of game development. People seemed to really enjoy it, which is why we plan to do the same with our blog for Runner3. You’ll be hearing from the game’s artists, animators, programmers, designers, musicians and even its producer (me!). Whether you’re looking to get into game development yourself or are just simply interested in the process, we’re pretty sure you’ll be happy with what we have to share. 

Additionally, if you’d just simply like to stay in the loop about announcements for the game, you’ll be good to go there as well! Any announcements we make will be shared here, including new gameplay footage, character reveals, merchandise plans, and all the other sundries we hope to announce over the course of the game’s development.

If there’s anything in particular you’d like to hear about, please let us know in the comments! We want you to enjoy reading this blog as much as we love writing it, which is why we’re going to take your requests very seriously.

Stay tuned!

A Teasing Teaser

This blog is going to be an experiment in some ways. In the time of Twitter, Facebook, Snapchat, and other social media outlets, are people going to want to visit a blog where a bunch of nerds go into detail about the creation of a game? Only time (and our paltry knowledge of SEO) will tell. 

What I do know, however, is that we want to make this the best possible one-stop shop for those of you looking forward to Runner3. As part of this commitment, I’d like to share with you the official teaser for the game:

Pretty cryptic, I know. The good news is that we have a plan in place to ensure you receive exciting news about Runner3 on a regular basis. We'll be getting into that more future post, but in the meantime, we would love to hear what you think about the teaser, and what your expectations are for Runner3! Is there a character you’d like to see return? Is there something you loved about the first two games that you hope to see in the third one? Let’s talk about it in the comments!
