18 Dec / by: M&R / 27 comments /We were just sent this video — apparently taken by a resourceful eye-witness. Sightings of gold-thirsty ninjas in and around urban areas have been increasingly common in the past couple weeks.. thankfully we have the robots to keep them at bay! https://www.thewayoftheninja.org/n+_video.html

Games in Rotation
13 Nov / by: M&R / 16 comments /We’re still struggling with trying to write something here more than once a damn month.. there are dozens and dozens of semi-fleshed-out topics waiting patiently in a text file, but converting these from point form into our typical nice classy posts takes way more time and energy than we can usually muster. Today, as a […]
meta-review: Bionic Commando remake
16 Oct / by: M&R / 26 comments /Wow.. this is exactly what’s wrong with commercial games. When we first heard of this project, we were worried that yet another grappling/physics-based game would be coming to take on Robotology.

N+ and PAX
30 Aug / by: M&R / 14 comments /We just got home from attending PAX2007; it was exhausting, but fun! The two of us and Nick had a booth where we were showing the XBLA version of N+. We were sort of hidden in the far-left corner of the expo floor — but luckily right next to the men’s room, ensuring lots of […]
Robotology: Metaphysical
19 Aug / by: M&R / 14 comments /Apologies for the continued infrequency of posting, it’s been non-stop deadlines for the past several weeks. woooooo! exhausting. By mid-September we should be able to move N+ work to part-time and return to Robotology in earnest.. finally! Writing this post is somewhat frustrating as it just serves as a reminder of what we should have […]
It was the best of times, it was the blurst of times..
01 Aug / by: M&R / 18 comments /..and somehow it’s August already! Keeping this blog from collecting too much dust is becoming increasingly difficult lately, due to some unforeseen circumstances, however we’ll do our best — we have so much more to give! This past month has been a bit hectic.. the original plan for N+ on DS/PSP was that we would […]
