PUNT

PUNT is a Source engine game by LunchHouse Software. It is a first person puzzle platformer game running on a modified Portal 2 engine branch (https://steamcommunity.com/app/507500/discussions/0/3820782448886446384/).

PUNT began as a Source engine mod being developed by Corrupted Studios as early as 2015 but had probably been in development for some years before as it was initially built on the Orange Box engine branch. In 2015 work began on updating to the Source SDK 2013 engine branch (https://www.moddb.com/games/punt/news/quick-update-13115). It was greenlit on Steam Greenlight in 2016 (https://www.moddb.com/games/punt/news/punt-rebirth-has-been-greenlit-dev-as-of-42816). In 2022, after four years of silence, it was announced that LunchHouse Software was developing PUNT (https://www.moddb.com/games/punt/news/punt-2022-and-beyond).

In May 2025, Tristan Halcomb announced his departure from LunchHouse Software saying "I've concluded my involvement with LunchHouse Software. I'm transitioning to doing game development as a hobby. I'm no longer involved with G String, unsure about what'll happen to PUNT. I will not be answering questions. Jury is out on when you'll hear any further news. Thanks."
