• My next game: Respect the Horde - 2 September 2026

  Hi everyone!It's been a while, and I wanted to share my latest project with you.Respect the Horde is a top-down zombie game built around a familiar idea: when you can't win through brute force, outsmart your opponent.You're heavily outnumbered, so instead of trying to kill hundreds of zombies by yourself, you manipulate the horde's predictable behavior. Redirect them with obstacles, create bottlenecks and lure them into traps.It's obviously very different from Gladiabots, but if you enjoyed finding clever ways to exploit predictable behavior, you might enjoy this one too.Respect the Horde is now available to wishlist on Steam:

• SECURITY BREACH ON THE GLADIABOTS PLAYER DATABASE - 7 November 2023

  I was recently the target of a social engineering attack via Discord. A friend's account, who had previously been attacked by the same group, was used to ask me to download a game they were working on and send them my feedback. The executable contained malware... Although I cannot verify it, the attackers claim to have extracted the Gladiabots player database. In addition to game-specific data that has no monetary value, the database contains the following info: - the email address of players who played the game on multiple devices => If this is your case, please be extra careful with the emails you receive, as other phishing attempts may arise. - the IP address of most players => Make sure you use up-to-date antivirus, firewall, and anti-malware software. As you know, the game does not use any passwords, so your other game or website accounts should not be impacted. It also does not st…
