I'm not alone in this though, I know a lot of people do the same thing, or similarly taking their day job home and doing it as a hobby. Either we're really lucky or just retarded. Any given day I'm in the balance which. Anyhow, this article starts at a lunch with a friend where we start reminiscing about old games and what we played back in the day before monster processors and even consoles more powerful than the NES 8-bit system. Several games came up but one stuck in the conversation and kind of expanded. The game was Chopper Duel, for the old DOS computers. The game is not that old, but the idea came up to do a revamped version of the game, in full 3D and with destructible environment. Well, suffice to say I didn't make that game.

My very good friend Andreas Brinck and I have been working for some time now on a hobby project on our spare time. It all started out as a very large project, we had a game design and all for a rather ambitious platform game.
