Background

John Brandon:

My DBZ inspired Saiyan Fox characters in a Mario Party inspired party game.
The party aspect was never developed, and frankly would probably be impossible to develop as multiplayer/multi-character games didn't seem to be possible in GM. I think at the time I figured I could get around this by having people take turns, but that's no fun for a party game. The concept was doomed from the start.
I mostly just wanted to work on some quirky mini games with my fox characters and have a joke with my friends.
I started work on some mini games: archery, go karts (a side-scroller; dodge obstacles), and duel (fighting style game based on work we'd done with Foxy Dimensions). There are playable demos of each, in various stages of completion.

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:
