The semi-famous (or infamous!? - hehe) Andrés & Carlos Bordeu, game designers at ACE Team make a quick apparition on YouTube being interviewed by BigWorld technologies during GDC 2012

In a little over 10 minutes they talk a bit about Rock of Ages and Zeno Clash but spend most of the time talking about their inspiration and focus when developing games.

It's short and sweet, so check it out!]]> Wed, 11 Apr 2012 14:21:44 -0500 Block of Ages free update Development
Hello you guys!

What did you think about this year's April's Fools pranks and jokes?

It seems like it was yesterday when we launched a FREE Steam PC update featuring Sir Boulder transformed into Sir Block...

All we can say is that although we were impressed with the 8-bit Google Earth, we kept on coming back to Rock of Ages and try destroying the opponent's castle with a Block.

Just remember, this is Steam exclusive content brought to you by total silliness from our part.

Enjoy being a blockhead!

Hello everyone!

Here at ACE Team we are working on a "secret project" around toy development, so we wanted to ask for feedback from everyone:

If Zeno Clash characters were toys, which would you want made and what materials? They may be statues (non moving figures) or plush. We'd start with the most popular ones and then add more, so I made this image with characters so people can vote for their favorites!
