First Jam City Rollergirls Art Smashes Through

Posted Sat, 04 Sep 2010 by James Newton

A little like Jet Set Radio, maybe?

Concept art ahoy

Jam City Rollergirls, the upcoming arcade take on roller derby, has been creating a stir since we announced it here in August, and with the game making its debut at PAX this weekend we've received some concept art from developers Frozen Codebase to share with you.

Frozen Codebase refers to itself as a "punk rock developer" and you can certainly see that spirit shine through in the concept art. With the game making its debut at PAX this weekend, watch this space for more Jam City Rollergirls coverage including screenshots and previews in the near future.

Well, those weren't the images I had in mind when I first heard about the game, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.... _{I think....}

Wow... those girls actually aren't twigs. This is new.

I think that the artwork looks pretty cool. I just wish that the developers would release some screenshots and a gameplay video already.

Hey I played this game at PAX. Its still early but its a promising more strategic Mario Kart. The nice thing is you can hit each other on the with your blades and they have this awesome crowd mechanic where people on your team actually pass you forward. Its really cool.

It its a great little racer, even though its early, its already fun. The power ups are awesome. haha

@moosa - yeah, I'm shocked they actually noticed and celbrated the fact that twiggish rollergirls tend to get broken, and so they're usually built like football players.
