The Undead Olympics

The Undead Olympics was a game conceptualised by Outerlight in around 2010. Following the release of Bloody Good Time, Chris Peck publicised the idea for The Undead Olympics both on his blog and on Facebook in order to get support for the game. While it appeared that the game was still in the concept stages, three model renders as well as multiple pieces of concept art were also posted on Facebook showing that it was well into the concept phase.

It is unclear how old the idea was, but it's probable that Outerlight were conceiving the idea prior to the release of Bloody Good Time so that they could fund and begin development soon after the release of Bloody Good Time. Most likely some design work continued before all of Outerlight's staff were laid off. Peck's plan included building the game off The Ship's code and updating to the latest version of the Source engine: it's unclear whether any code had been written, but if it had ben, it likely wasn't enough to justify mentioning. Chris Peck left the game industry in the 2010s and The Undead Olympics was never produced.
