I left a comment on his channel after he'd uploaded it. He's a star for recording these as most of us attending these very rarely get to attend the talks. Top man.

Thanks to @tonywarriner.bsky.social & @stoocambridge.bsky.social who at ZAPP Live! 2025 in the UK invited me to discuss their new game UrbX Warriors.

It's a brand new pixel art arcade adventure, which is launching on Kickstarter!

I hope you enjoy my video!

If you are a retro gamer who likes Beneath a Steel Sky or Cannon Fodder, you should check out a new game created by @stoocambridge.bsky.social and @tonywarriner.bsky.social from the studios behind those games
Kickstarter launched <12 hours ago, nearly 200% funded!

A day after launch, UrbX Warriors has already smashed through the 250% funded mark! There's still plenty of time to back this brand new project from @tonywarriner.bsky.social and @stoocambridge.bsky.social and grab some fantastic rewards while they're available!

15 Days: Part 10, where I write about the UrbX Warriors live fundraiser from @stoocambridge.bsky.social and @tonywarriner.bsky.social, along with my attempts to get fit and, er, a really great coaster.

Thanks. There's a whole backstory behind them too, which I had to write to make them feel believable. Lots planned. :)

Stoo Cambridge @stoocambridge.bsky.social · May 14

That's a cool shirt! I approve! :)

I joined as Mega-Lo-Mania and Wizkid were in the final stages of development. It was so cool getting that gig and then seeing two new games being finished behind the scenes! Remember, this was before the Internet so only news that came out was via the magazines. Fantastic times! Tea & Take Aways! ;)
