A New Game Announced! Banshee!

We are very proud to officially announce that we have teamed up with Mr Dog Films to develop the game for a new transmedia project called ‘Banshee’.

Banshee

Over the past two months we’ve been hard at work creating an experience that brings true horror to Facebook in the form of a real time, multiplayer game. Banshee is about survival and discovery, with the indirect result of territorial conflict, involving two teams – the emergency services and the spirits. The two teams will try to take control of areas of the city with the use of light and darkness, while discovering the lore of the world!

The game will be a first of its kind in eventually delivering the full length horror film, made by Mr Dog Films, via the game. We’re using Unity for development as we felt it was the best fit to achieve the level of immersion required for such an experience.

We’re really excited about this project and we’ll be releasing more information as we develop the game. Expect to see live streams and developer video blogs from us as the months progress!

For more information please see the Banshee Facebook page and website!

Why Move… Again?!... (read more)
