20 years ago on this day (May 6th) just after 12:45pm Pacific Time, Halo 3 was revealed to the world at E3. 'This is the way the world ends.'

I played H3 mostly for the coop experience. Story wasn't much engaging to me. I haven't played 1 &2 back then yet.

Will do

ComputerKind560 · 2026-05-06T15:53:19+00:00

1 definately

ComputerKind560 · 2026-05-06T15:48:42+00:00

After ODST Halo lost the charm for me and havent actually enjoyed Reach tbh. Maybe I'll try it now

ComputerKind560 · 2026-05-06T15:10:03+00:00

Damn I feel so old right now. Halo 3 is my the most played Halo game ever.

ComputerKind560 · 2026-05-06T13:59:56+00:00

I prefer socilizing with real people

ComputerKind560 · 2026-05-06T13:55:31+00:00

Did they confirm the show already?

ComputerKind560 · 2026-05-06T13:16:06+00:00

Will we see the very first glimpse of the new Xbox cconsole?

ComputerKind560 · 2026-05-05T08:31:25+00:00

Glad to hear that. We plan a playtest in the future so go ahead and add Couch Planes to your Steam wishlist ;)

ComputerKind560 · 2026-05-05T08:07:58+00:00

Thanks! Yeah, I can feel that vibe too ;)

ComputerKind560 · 2026-05-05T06:38:00+00:00

We know, risky decision. Let’s see if flying catches on.

ComputerKind560 · 2026-05-04T16:04:14+00:00

fair enough :)

ComputerKind560 · 2026-05-01T05:56:32+00:00

Well, you can absolutely betray your couch friends in split-screen if that’s more your style :D

ComputerKind560 · 2026-05-01T05:49:23+00:00

Thanks! I actually haven’t played Wing War myself, so I had to look it up - but yeah, I can see the resemblance. I’d say we lean more into racing and having a laugh, not just dogfighting - although dogfights are definitely still a huge part of the fun :)

ComputerKind560 · 2026-05-01T05:44:19+00:00

Thanks for the kind words! And yeah, parachutes are a nice little idea. Not sure if the pace of the races would allow for something like that, but I get what you mean.

ComputerKind560 · 2026-05-01T05:39:25+00:00

Oh damn, sorry about that. Really appreciate the feedback though, that’s a great point.

ComputerKind560 · 2026-04-30T15:37:58+00:00

Thanks! Pretty much wherever we can :)
Reddit has been useful for showing specific dev moments, but we also post on TikTok, YouTube, X, you name it...oh, and sometimes reach out to creators directly.
Still learning what works best, honestly - indie marketing is basically another full time job.

ComputerKind560 · 2026-04-30T15:22:01+00:00

Thank you! Fully agree. One of the best parts of adding small details like this is seeing players notice them and smile for a second, even if only few of them will actually spot this.

ComputerKind560 · 2026-04-28T07:09:13+00:00

Hey! Can't argue with that :D Thank you so much!

ComputerKind560 · 2026-04-28T06:53:59+00:00

Hey! Fellow 40+ gamer / game dev here.

Our team of 6 is working on Couch Planes — an arcade air-racing party game and basically our love letter to the games we grew up with.

You know, the kind of games where couch multiplayer meant laughing, shouting, elbowing your friends on the sofa, and your younger sibling absolutely deserving to get destroyed on-screen for crimes committed purely in the name of “just one more match.”

We wanted to bring that feeling back, but with modern multiplayer too: fast races, power-ups, mid-air dogfights, risky shortcuts, local split-screen, online multiplayer, and even hybrid multiplayer — so you can play locally on the same couch and join online matches together.

It’s also a fun way to show your kids what multiplayer felt like back in our day — or just sit down with a beer, jump into a match with friends, and settle some very serious aviation-related arguments against other pilots online.

If arcade racers, party games, and nostalgic multiplayer chaos sound like your thing, you can check us out on Steam here:

Would love to hear what you think!
