Since around late 2013, I’ve been creating stuff under the group that I lead, RGames, whether said stuff is an entire game console within LBP2, a game made for computers or retro consoles, or something entirely different! However, while RGames’ past is pretty neat to look back on, I need to think about the future of RGames as well. I’ve been working on plenty of things that should hopefully finally come out this year, as well as a refresh of RGames as a whole. So without further ado, let’s get into what that refresh will have to offer!
[Welcome to the Radikal Dimension]
Starting today, RGames will start officially rebranding to RadikalGames. Although for the sake of not rotting links, I'll do my best to keep links the same as before, but where I can (and care to do so, which automatically means the mess called Twitter won't be included in this), the RGames branding will be replaced with RadikalGames.
The new name’s something that was kinda thought up of many years ago with the purpose of not making RGames’ name a carbon copy of T-Games’ (another, much more popular group that began in LBP2, whose LBP2 consoles were the main inspiration for me creating RGames), with Kowan011 suggesting Radikal as the name. Although this name wasn’t used since RGames didn’t end up getting renamed at the time, back in 2023 I had the idea of taking that name idea and add Games at the end of it, to make it look like the R in RGames was being expanded to become RadikalGames. And that's when the new name was born, although it wouldn't be until 2024 when a logo was made to accompany it...
This is the ‘Hydra’ RadikalGames logo, named as such because my projects seemed to be like a hydra. I finish one, then three more pop up! Joking aside, this is what RadikalGames’ logo is going to look like from now until the next logo, complete with this dreamlike space-like background (well, that was what I tried going for anyway). Kowan011 was who primarily designed it, with input from me as neither of our initial ideas were that worthy of succeeding the preceding logo (though it is derived from his original idea for a RadikalGames logo, so wouldn't that mean that his initial idea technically DID make it into the RadikalGames logo?). If you're curious as to what my idea was, it was just an edit of the previous logo, which would've been pretty lazy if I went forward with what I originally had in mind.
[Conclusion]
In conclusion, RGames is becoming RadikalGames. I do apologize for how rushed this post may seem for such a major announcement, but I wanted to try and keep things brief here. I do have some stuff I hope to unveil and release soon, assuming I do so in a timely manner since I was procrastinating this important announcement for several months... Until next time, this has been RGamesOfficial, signing out from the Radikal dimension!
