I Should Make A Thread Or Something Showing These Lost Games Off Because I Think I'm Literally One Of The Only People Who Knows About These - Tumblr Posts
fun fact: Halfbrick as a company has been around since at least 2001, and they have some archives of their old website from that year as well! it holds some very obscure and interesting information about the company's history, including some lost media. some of their earliest known games that were made independently of other companies, such as Defiant, Farma Llamma and Turbelence, were either cancelled, seemingly never went past the drawing board or are lost.
something i find very amusing about this site is this blog post from the 22nd of March 2001, where they remark that the orange colour from their site has been banished. this implies that there is a much older version of the website that was coated in orange rather than this dark blue and silver, but that has since been lost to time. imagining a universe where Halfbrick never used their iconic orange colour is really weird...
![[image id]: A screenshot of a blog post from Halfbrick's old website from 2001. It's very bare and simple, only using basic HTML. It has a dark blue background. The post's title is "Website v 2.0 Is Up" and it is dated from 22/03/2001. The post's content says the following: "Halfbrick have decided it is time to update the website, and well... hmmm... here it is. For those that do not have color blindness you will be glad to see that we have banished the orange color."
