[5] The pair had met at Pittsburgh Filmmakers School and shared a mutual love of movies and video games.
[11] However, due to the success of the publishing and music business, Bussler was able to re-launch Classic Game Room as a series on YouTube in 2023.
[12] After the initial closure of The Game Room, Bussler directed, wrote and produced multiple direct-to-DVD documentaries, usually on American history.
Bussler wrote tie-in non-fiction books to his documentaries such as Expo: Magic of the White City and Horses of Gettysburg, as well as video-game related projects such as The Ultra Massive Video Game Console Guide, How To Make A Video Game Review Show That Doesn't Suck and the CGR Collector's Series.
[15] Many of the Kickstarter reward tiers included access to digital downloads of various other Classic Game Room comic books featuring Wind Squid, Edit-Station 1 and Heyzoos the Coked Up Chicken, along with a "Deconstructed" version of Lord Karnage Book 1 containing rough sketches and background information.
