Well this is pretty cool. Blotchy camo pattern is always a favorite amongst the…

“Hey, wait a minute,” you say… “All they did was add a camouflage pattern to the regular truck!”

Affirmative.

Camo
It’s not a hammer or toilet seat that costs the government four hundred dollars. It’s this rockin’ paint job!

War changes a person. And apparently makes you use the term “rockin’”. But those of you that are comfortable with change, you can change your wallpaper! Various sizes found below.

One more fun thing to throw in here… The DETOUR “Platformed” trailer is almost up to 11k views! Thanks to every one who watched it! Tell your friends!

That’s all for now! Over and out.

Pardon Our Dust!

While we wait for things to funnel through the funnels and code to be coded, we’re showing off all of our Truck themes you can use in DETOUR, complete with awesome wallpapers. Last week we did the Holy Truck, so naturally, the Evil truck is next!

Feeling… Bad?

Evil
Our company has a wide variety of employee training courses. We recommend “Maniacal Cackling 101″ for new hires.

Mwa-ha-ha and all that!

Do you have a desktop? That’s great, because we have wallpapers for your desktop. Touch these wallpapers.

Mwahahahahahahaha!

Pardon Our Dust!

Content. Friggin. Complete. Holy cow. (Oh wait, we cut those last week)

Holy Truck, for that matter. Oh wait, the Holy Truck comes later. We’re having trouble taking in that DETOUR is content complete. This means there is no more art left to create. Kind of blows your mind, right? Right. Just as the therapist said. Deep breathing accompanied by a girlish squeal of delight.

The Carnival truck. Here.

Carnival
This clown-themed decoration is sure to awaken your foes deeply repressed childhood traumas.

Creepy. Just as the other trucks, this is purely cosmetic in-game, but just enough to give you that little flare you need to beat your opponent, probably. Maybe. Anyway, here’s a unique wallpaper to adorn your desktop with.

And with that, we’re in major crunch time, with a huge PC-related revelation on the way. We’ll speak again soon. Oh yes, we shall.

Pardon Our Dust!

That time of year has come again, and what a busy one it’s been! Consider this the update of Christmas Yet To Come!

Over the past month or so, we’ve had some very crazy, awesome, and otherwise cheer-bringing events!
- Sandswept turned THREE (Wow, we’ve been trucking along since December 2007!)
- DETOUR is nearing the final stages and we are now in “Bug Fixes Only” mode, prepping for release on Xbox LIVE Indie Games and a yet-to-be-unveiled PC platform at the start of 2011!
- Project 2 is secretly mounting up at the starting gate, and it will knock your socks off. Let’s just say… We’re going to try something new during the coming year. Something grand.

If you missed it, or just like reminiscing on days gone by, DETOUR is coming out really really really soon! Expect DETOUR to launch very rapidly, and without much warning. We’re almost done, we’re finishing it up, and we’re going to get it into your hands as quick as we can! It terrifies us and excites us! Our trailer has garnered over 10,000 views, which we think is pretty awesome for our first go! If you have yet to see the trailer, follow this link!

Now, like a good uncle (you know, the one who calls you a rascally devil and gives you noogies), we’re going to bring you some presents, albeit a bit late. Over the next couple weeks, during the final stages of DETOUR’s development, we’ll be unveiling all the truck skins you can find in DETOUR. Shiny renders on the way!

Soon after release, we’ll be touting how amazing this game is, because… Well, it’s made by us. And we’ve got a thing or two up our sleeve here. If all goes according to plan — as they tend not to, just the way software goes — you should see DETOUR land around February, in the area of $10. A few lucky people might get it for a bit less. Maybe even free. More on that later! Oh, but we suggest you start watching our Twitter feed. No reason. Really.

And lastly, we’d love to thank each and every one of you, our past friends, fans, co-workers, and pets, for sticking with us throughout the years and keeping us motivated to bring DETOUR to you. We adore the continued support, and hope to see it for many, many, MANY years to come!

With that, I leave you with a classic 2009 (2010 recited!) rendition of The Night Before Creasemas! Enjoy! (Click for super-big HD version!)

Happy Holidays and Merry Creasemas!

Pardon Our Snow!

Remember when you were a little kid and totally wished you could have a whole set of sweet looking trucks? Yeah, we don’t really remember that either. Childhood was a traumatizing time for most of us. That said, we thought it’d be pretty cool to let players unlock and choose some really sweet looking trucks for use in DETOUR!

We already showed these off just a tiny bit. Still in the works, and officially the last set of 3D content we’re putting into DETOUR (Yes! That does mean we’re almost done!) Say hello to awesome. Awesome, say hello to our fans. It’s the polite thing to do.

And bringing them to life…

Upon unlocking these trucks (no, we’re not going to tell you how, yet), players can choose which truck theme they’ll be using in both singleplayer and multiplayer. We’ve even thrown in a few designs for the delicate ladies, and those with effeminate tendencies. This isn’t just a man’s game. But it is pretty manly. I mean, we’ve got bombs and semi-trucks and bridges and stuff. Didn’tcha know?

Tell your friends. It’s the manly thing to do.
