No longer garage games?

#1 Hey Tony! Very glad to see you posting again. Over the past couple years, the site became primarily Torque-centric. There were relatively few discussions and blogs that weren't about Torque. Last year, it was a company wide decision to sunset the GarageGames name. Now, everyone in the company is an InstantAction employee. People like myself and Eric are part of the Torque division.

The site and our Torque brand is going to get an update soon, and you will probably not see any references to GarageGames (logos, print, images, etc). Eric will have more details on this, but to answer your question we are going to be just Torque.

#2 Thanks Michael for the quick reply (as always).

Two more quick questions:

1. Does that mean that the garagegames domain name will be made available again?

2. I think I remember someone saying that the GarageGames headquarters is in Eugene, Oregon. I currently live in Northern California and I'll be moving to Olympia, Washington this summer, so you're definitely in my neck of the woods. How do you guys feel about having someone drop in to check things out? :)

Thanks again!

#3 1. We still retain the rights and ownership to GarageGames. Lou (our new CEO) said that we will not be using it for the company's next game or Torque, but that doesn't mean we will not use it in the future.

2. Well, we would love it. The problem is that the company relocated last year. The Platform (IA tech and community) team moved to Portland, and the product teams (game studio and Torque) moved to Las Vegas.

#4 Wow. Guess I've been gone longer than I realized. Lots of changes in the past year.

Congrats on everything, and I look forward to seeing how things work out over the next year.

Take care,
~Tony

#5 Thanks for the congrats. We look forward to seeing you in the forums more =)
