It was only a few months in, but our next game was feeling like it might be a long, hard, and not super fun road to make.

So I started tinkering with something else, and it clicked much faster, and we like it more, so we're switching!

More thoughts, and a little glimpse:

OK, time for the first proper dev log for the new thing!

Calling it Project Battleaxe for now. 🪓

This is just a 2 minute gameplay clip showing the vibe and feel of our combat prototype, but I'll talk you through the intent as it loops.

Working on a new enemy, don't let it get too close!

Team photo with award. Left to right it's Steve Lee, Robert Arzola, Tom Francis, and John Winder. Sadly absent: John Roberts.

In a career of being nominated for things we know we can't win, I don't think I've ever been more sure of not winning something than the IGF for Excellence in Design last night. Somehow, it was also the first time I've been wrong.

Properly stunned, hugely grateful, deeply confused.
