Chompy has been released into the wild

Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light was released on XBLA today. It’s the game I’ve been working on for the last year. The metacritic is hovering right around 88.5, which for a game is pretty damn fantastic.

I mostly did programming on the project, but I finagled my way into co-designing one of the levels with an artist who shall remain nameless since I don’t know if he wants his name plastered all over random blog posts. The level I made is the chase sequence with Chompy, a giant zombie fish (see video), and it has a killer ending.

The game’s actually fun, and it’s way better playing co-op with a buddy sitting next to you on the couch. Definitely worth playing.
