    Rollerdrome, a game I did the character/weapon design for as a concept artist, got a BAFTA in 2023. (here’s an article about the art of the game by @lukeplunkett.com)

    BUY THIS GAME ON STEAM KEY SITES/PIRATE IT! for anyone who isn't yet aware, the publishers of this game (2K) laid off everyone who developed this game. Do not buy this game, as buying it will support 2K instead of the hard work actually put into it. Gameplaywise, this game is really great thought. The bullet time is super cool, and the tricks are just as awesome. It you like DOOM: Eternal, You'll probably enjoy this game. 8.5/10

    This game is very fun. However after getting soaring reviews and even winning a BAFTA 2K laid off the entire studio behind it. Do not pay for this game.

    That is also where the BAFTA is from, because to be fair, it was ROLLERDROME that won the BAFTA. But I was concept artist on it, so it is a little bit my BAFTA too. Anyways I know the games industry is in utter shit right now, but I'd love to work on a game again someday so HMU if you need a CA! 🧡

    People were like: IM GONNA BUY ROLLERDROME TO SUPPORT YOU. And no you don’t. I was let go of the studio years before the game released. I got paid for my work on the game that’s it. If anything, sales might cause a sequel to be made, and then there’s still no guarantee your fav creators come back 🤷‍♀️

    DO NOT BUY THIS GAME! Rollerdrome is fantastic! That said your money is only going to the publisher not a single developer will receive a cent from your purchase as they were laid off after creating an absolute masterpiece. Even the developers have encouraged fans to acquire the game via alternative methods. Find it on a key reseller, or pirate it.

    An underrated genre of videogame is “sports game that isn’t really a sport”. Games like Pyre and Rollerdrome and games where robots play baseball and shoot each other, that sort of thing.

    Do you remember watching those violent dystopian death sports movies in the '80s and wondered, 'man, what if rollerskaters had guns?', then look no further for your answers than Rollerdrome. Starting out as a humble game jam project, Rollerdrome gathered enough steam behind it to attract a dedicated team who would, for their efforts, be rewarded and 'rewarded' by all. In the 2030s, the world is gripped by the deathly entertainment of Rollerdrome, where contestants compete against one another…

    The game is truly brilliant. Some of the most fun I've had in recent years with games. HOWEVER, given that 2K has wrongly and royally ♥♥♥♥♥♥ over Roll7 by SHUTTING THEM DOWN (and all revenue from the game now going to 2K 🤡), I cannot in good faith recommend that you *buy* this game whatsoever, unless you do so second hand (maybe for achievements I guess)

    One of the coolest games I've ever played, it's best thing since Hotline Miami. So easy to get into yet so challenging to master. Despite universal acclaim from critics and audiences alike, as well as winning a BAFTA award, every dev was laid off. I was unaware of this before purchasing on steam. Do not buy this game. Nobody whose talent went into this game will receive a single cent.

    I'm conflicted: I only heard about Rollerdrome through a YouTube video essay detailing the corporate skulduggery after its release that resulted in the entire Roll7 team getting laid off (allegedly) but....this game is so unique, and difficult, and satisfying, and endlessly replayable. And that's before you get into the visuals and the music, which are the 1983est I've felt since, well, 1983. This feels like a labour of love and the team deserved far better. I should stand by my principles…

    The Bafta winning game, Rollerdrome, was delisted from all platforms for a period earlier this year when the company was sold off. It probably would have stayed that way if it wasn't for fan outrage. www.pcgamer.com/games/olliol...

    I love this. It's all the fun of Tony Hawk except you don't ever fall off your skates which is a huge plus and you get to shoot enemies while doing tricks. It's a blast! It's too bad the studio got shut down but you can torrent it. Some people say the game is too difficult but I don't think so. You have to keep doing tricks to resupply your ammo, which means you have to multi task between tricks and shooting. You can slow down time with the left trigger which makes it easier.

    11/10 Game. Truly one of the best movement shooters out there, nothing balances a frenetic pace, with the absolute freedom of movement like this game does. Nothing feels as nice as pulling off a sick 720 as you perfectly time your shots and dodges for maximum efficiency. The pacing of difficulty is so well thought out, each level putting to work the lessons the previous levels have introduced. And it feels so nice to fail because its just fun to play. One of my all time favorites. Oh and the…

Basically you have to clear stages by eliminating all enemies while on roller skates. You replenish ammo by doing tricks and you increase your combo multiplier by getting eliminations. On top of this you can also trigger slow motion at will. A very addictive gameplay loop. The cassette futurist style is also very cool. The game takes place in the…
