Silk is Coming to Switch!
Dear friends,
On Monday this week, we submitted our Master Candidate for Silk to Switch... we are in the pipeline now, and will have the game on console this Autumn. I can't thank everyone enough for your support in getting us here.
More news on the Switch version very soon, I hope.
Silk Almanac and the Unofficial 1986 Manual
If you're a Silk player hopefully you already know about the new Manual and Almanac. A discussion on Twitter with one of our Stalwart backers, the good and excellent @DarkBlueMonkey, led to the question of whether the Silk manual (which was then very compact) ought not to be more in a 1980s style. Well, one thing led to another and I held a poll which showed overwhelming support for a more verbose manual. And in the end, we got two verbose manuals, because DarkBlueMonkey also went on to produce a totally fantastic Unofficial 1986 Retro Manual for the game. So there you go - two verbose manuals for the price of one!
Share the Retro Love
If you are a retro fan - or even if you're not! - then please head over to Steam and Wishlist the wonderful Huey Games' project, Wreckout. It's like Arkanoid mashed up with Micro Machines, and an absolute blast to play. It costs you nothing to Wishlist so go ahead and give them your support!
A Short Narrative Design Survival Guide
And finally, if you're anywhere near Leeds, you can catch me at Game Republic on Wednesday 30th October at 4:30 pm at Platform Leeds (right by Leeds station). I'll be presenting a shortened version of my Develop talk entitled "A Short Narrative Design Survival Guide".
Hope to see you there!
Chris.
