Now that ANTONBLAST has fully wrapped, weโve decided to release a VM branch of the game. What this means is: YES, you can mod the game! (at the code level!)
All you need to do is install the vm_public branch on Steam.

Indie teams still have management positions... Wildlight was over 100 employees and had multiple offices.
12.02.2026 01:58 โ ๐ 4 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I feel so bad for the devs, both for getting fired so quickly and for what I can only imagine are the psychological ramifications of spending years working on a game in such a fickle genre with so many high profile failures to the point where I have to imagine this outcome must have felt inevitable

If it weren't for them, those indies wouldn't be able to make much (if any) money from their musical work at all.

And so marks THE END of our major updates for ANTONBLAST.
I'm gonna shout it from the rooftops: FUCK GenAI. Creativity is human.
I am so incredibly tired of this bullshit idea that the hallucinating plagiarism machine does anything other than harm people and generate completely useless garbage. Why should anyone be proud of this?
Forever Qwarktastic
Rest in Peace, Jim Ward.
One of my fav game dev stories ever: For the 10 MINUTE Qwark Opera level in Secret Agent Clank, the devs had forgotten to ask Jim Ward to prep for singing.
When he found out, he said "huh, hold on" & sang the entire thing in nearly A SINGLE TAKE.
Here's some screenshots of THE END.

They actually had already programmed an enemy they called "skunk" with the same(ish) model and slightly different functionally, which they ended up cutting from the game later in service of these guys.

i love this game so much.
The End is near.
