Robert was a programmer on Rollcage and Stage 2, and was keeping very active in an online Rollcage community. They are such great games that nostalgia inspired me to search for any news at all of an additional sequel in late 2014, which incidentally had me stumble upon Robert Baker’s blog.
Even the graphics in many respects were ahead of its time, especially the effects. Rollcage broke new ground having wheel-based vehicles not only doing ludicrous speeds, but doing it while driving on walls, ceilings and both sides of the car – all while shooting each other. Combat Racing was practically the only video game driving experience for me once Rollcage crashed onto my screen. A racing game so intense, it changed the way I felt about regular racing games. Rollcage, Rollcage and RC: Stage 2 were games that took hold of your senses, flipped them upside down and smashed them through a brick wall.
Those of you who know the source of its inspiration will see immediately, and those who don’t – well, we think you’ll still be very excited for what’s to come. It’s fast, it’s intense, it’s chaotic and its name is GRIP.
We’ve been hard at work on a new combat racing game that we think will reignite the love for the genre.
