****Filament ****
Very proud of my Alumni on the release of their game today, best of luck! Josiah Ward, Ben Webster and Aaron Coker -
Out now - https://store.steampowered/app/1137350/Filament/
They said to me "So after graduating in 2017 myself, Ben and Aaron decided that instead of getting industry jobs we’d make our own. Initially we continued development of our third year project but it wasn’t really compelling enough to us as a game to continue working on it so we made Filament instead.
Filament is a laid back, story rich and fully narrated puzzle game centred around solving sets of cable-based puzzles whilst exploring a seemingly abandoned spaceship.
Filament began as a game jam entry to the week-long Epic Megajam, where it placed as one of the winners. Since then, it has entered full development with the number of puzzles continuing to grow and new mechanics being implemented. On top of this, a full original soundtrack is in the works, as well as extensive narration."

Though first sweet, things soon descend into chaos. Desperately trying to console patty, he soon realises that appeasing her won’t be so simple.
