One of the extra (and actually pretty fun) tasks when creating space pirate trainer was hacking my own high scores. I made it way more difficult (especially with known tools), but I also realised it was hard to make something completely « unhackable »

You know the feeling of landing a perfect jump off the kicker you spent all day shoveling for? In Shredders we make it easy. Get creative with custom feature placements in the new update! Play on @Xbox Series X|S, @XboxGamePass, or Steam. Coming to @PlayStation PS5 on Dec 6! 🔥

Looking at these new releases on PS5, I wonder if some people would change their opinion on curation. I mean; “Jumping whatever” and “pretty bird X” are spamming the page, lowering consumer trust and stealing what-used-to-be-valuable space from devs that want to make cool games.

While developing some of the tech behind Shredders, we also tried different approaches for the story. Here's a prototype animation... Unfortunately it was expensive and hard to make changes. Also notice that "540MUTE" eventually changed to 540INDY because of the THPS story.

If you're into podcasts and into Gamedev or Extreme Sports games; I did an interview with Xbox Expansion Pass with my non-professional radio voice.
