Background

John Brandon:

Cool Boarders 2 came out and I liked it even more than Cool Boarders 1. Naturally I had to make a sequel to Seal Boarders, which hadn't been worked on in a long time by this point. Seal Boarders 2 featured revamped character playability, and all new courses including night courses! There was also a grind button that allowed you to go in a straight line, and by virtue of that fact, actually be able to stay on the straight grind rails. This was also worked on by me and my brother.

Archive history

On January 21st 2010, Rob Brandon pseudonymously responded to a Reddit thread with a passing comment about Game-Maker. When pressed about his history with the software, he replied that all of his games were stored on a couple of defunct computers, either inaccessible or destroyed.

Over 31 months later on August 23th 2012, John Brandon commented on a YouTube clip that he had found an archive of his and his brother's old games. The next day he composed a long e-mail describing the contents of a jumbled collection of gameware files, adding up to an ostensible sixteen games. All of the games were in pieces, many of them incomplete.

Over the next five months, through regular consultation, the games were all reassembled as well as the materials would permit. The games were reconstructed or otherwise recovered on the following dates:
