QUOTES:

• “I can see that Gamefroot puts the power back in the hands of the people. There is the potential for Gamefroot to have as much impact on classic 2D video games as Youtube has had on video. Another bonus is the speed at which these games can be created. This is democratising the gaming process and that has to be a beautiful thing.” – Greg Broadmore, Senior Designer at Weta Workshop and Dr Grordborts creator (from http://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/SC1204/S00035/wellington-based-game-developer-promises-nerdgasm.htm)
