Gaijin Games/Robotube Battle of the Brand Gamejam caught on camera

We checked in with Gaijin Games and Robotube throughout the night as they completed their game.

You can catch the clips, including the epic moment of completion, here.

These were orginially broadcast live on our Blip liveblog, which you can see here.

BATTLE OF THE BRANDS is ROCKIN'!

Hey fans of game-inspired music and music-inspired games! We Gaijin & Robotube dudes are rocking our “build-a-game-in-a-day” challenge over in the corner of the lounge! Swing by if you’re interested in witnessing total dominance!

Game developers in their natural habitat.  But where's the liquor?

We’ve got the base gameplay mostly implemented and are moving on to integrating Glomag’s rockin’ score/sound effects!

Gaijin Vs. Robotube: Battle of the Brands at The Blip Festival

From the desk of Alex Neuse, CEO of Gaijin Games:

BlipFestFlyer

As we all know, Blip Festival 2009 is almost upon us, and I thought I’d take this opportunity to let everyone in on a little secret…

The handsome frontman from Robotube Games is going to be collaborating with the Gaijin crew on a little experimental Blip Festival inspired video game project.  Here are the rules:
1. Try to make a game in one day while at Blip Festival 2009
2. Drink lots of coffee
3. Release the end product to the public, even if we fail miserably
They are the only rules. You will live the results.
And for marketing purposes, we’re calling this fantastic event the BATTLE OF THE BRANDS!  Even though we’re collaborating, not battling.  And even though we may not even use our existing “brands”.  It just sounds so cool.  And you know what?  We can do whatever we want!  It’s our freakin’ deal, so shut up if you feel like it! We’ll each be updating our sites, blogs, twitters, facebookz, etc.  In the spirit of being indie, we’re flying this plane by the seat of our pants!
Wish us luck.
Love and kisses,
Gaijin/Robotube
