Make a racing game they said… with horses they said! It’s never been done before! In 2001, we found out why. It was pretty difficult to make it feel realistic with the available tech, but Circus Maximus was a good attempt. It fell victim to Kodiak’s troubles (EA pulling out of acquisition and the owner deciding to close shop), but we kept if going from a few people’s homes, with me running interference between the publisher and the developers form their homes. A great idea that with a little more time could have been a classic. Great team including Tom Hudson as AD and expert of all things Roman!
