“This led to interest from small English publisher SCi, who were pursuing the rights to the license for a game based on the cult ‘70s movie Death Race 2000. ”So, we put together a small demo game with a simple oval track, three cars and a prototype ‘PratCam’ (a PIP image showing the driver’s comedy reactions to the action), and hawked our demo video around publishers.”

“Patrick was a long-time banger racer and roped me into doing a bit of that too, and he had a grand ambition to make a Banger Racing (Destruction Derby) game, in full 3D with realistic physics and real-time damage,” says Barnden. The first game we worked on together was a Mac game, Crystal Crazy, the follow-up to Patrick’s big hit Mac game Crystal Quest.” “At that time Patrick was coding on the Mac, and I was a graphic designer and illustrator also using the newly emerging tool for graphic artists the Apple Mac. “I accidentally wandered into the games industry way back 20-something years ago, when in the early 1990's I rashly agreed to join forces with Patrick Buckland (Stainless Co-Founder and Chairman) to do the art for a game he was coding,” Barnden recalls. With original developer Stainless Games back behind the wheel, we spoke with the studio’s Co-Founder and Brand Director Neil “Nobby” Barnden to find out more about the series’ lasting legacy and what you can expect from Stainless Games' latest pedestrian slaughter fest. With so many serious simulations flooding the market lately, Carmageddon Max Damage is exactly what the racing game genre needs right now. Nearly 20 years after the release of the original, the Carmageddon series is making a comeback on consoles with the release of Carmageddon Max Damage, which retains the series’ violent vehicular combat and surreal sense of humour.
So imagine my delight when I discovered someone turned this idea into a game with Carmageddon, a game that rewarded you for ignoring the route of the race and purposely smashing into opponents. Instead of racing against opponents, I would deliberately drive the wrong way and cause as much carnage as possible.
When I first started playing racing games back in the '90s, I didn’t care about racing – I cared about crashing.
