KKND: Krush Kill ‘n Destroy
FMV cutscenes with very quirky humour? Check! Ridiculously over the top scenario? Check! Giant acid-squirting scorpions vs. six-wheeled flame thrower ATVs? Check! In 1997, Beam Software released the first game in the KKnD series. Is it just an unimaginative Command & Conquer reskin clone? Or did it bring something unique to the then still young real-time strategy genre? Joining hosts Martijn ("Tijn") and Florian ("rnlf") is club member Björn ("TigerQuoll"). This month our shoutout is slightly different, pointing you to a brilliant interview series that Caroline Delbert did with game developers who entered their games into the 2022 Queer Games Bundle over on itch.io . Nothing retro gaming related this time, but definitely worth checking out. That's all for now.
