A time capsule of Evil Brain posts, largely from 2017–2019. This is an archival collection—not a running progress report. More recent work is represented by the games themselves; older posts are preserved here because their oddball history deserves to survive.
Some Sad News
It is with sadness that we must announce Charles, AKA DJ Wildebeest, has decided to step down from his place in the team and go on an indefinite hiatus.
We're IN for LD44 (UPDATE 2)
Evil Brain will be taking part in Ludum Dare 44, led by the inimitable Ham! and also Rusty will be helping. Probably Charles. We will be tracking our progress live on this blog post.
Getting Back On That Horse
We made the horse and now we are going to ride on the horse until the horse is dead. (It deserves it.)
One Of Us Did A Thing!
During the last Ludum Dare, Rusty lent his help making noise for a creation by Jessica “SudoJess” Winters , along with Alex Bertram Powell and Franky Dink . The music Rusty contributed to the project has now been released on soundcloud and here on E vilbrain .net under his project M.F.F.E.
A Close Call For Wilde
Recently our beloved leader DJ Wildebeest suffered a way-too-close call. This is the official statement he has released as he gets back on his feet so we can get back on his coat-tails.

Introducing the new EvilBrain.Net, a project we here at Evil Brain have been working on for, well, since Evil Brain became more than just Rusty & Charles. The new site will serve as a tentpole for the games-and-pop-culture centered projects we have for some reason chosen to orient our lives around.
