BAFTA Games Social - Sheffield

, , ,

I went along to the BAFTA Games Social in Sheffield yesterday! It was held at the National Video Game Museum in Sheffield.

 

You can catch a cheeky cameo of my rather chonky legs in the reflection here 😂😅 The way my right leg in particular appears in the glass reminds me of the digitigrade knee joints the Sangheili in the Halo have. Sci-fi body goals!

 

The event was great - it featured a talk focused on the many pracitcal/ethical/legal issues surrounding game preservation in today’s (pretty much entirely) digital landscape.

 
 

It was lovely to meet new folks & catch up with some familiar friendly faces there too!

Under Cover - Launch Week

, , , , , , , ,

Under Cover launched today on the Meta Quest store!! 🥳

The launch week for the game has been incredible! I went to VR Manchester on Tuesday 13th Feb to see Luke Thompson's (Creative Director + Technical Lead) fireside chat on the development of the game. It was such a surreal moment to see the project we’d been working on for the past 2-years up on the big screens in front of everyone!

Then later in the week, it was so great to be able to hang out & catch up with the lovely SIGTRAP/Under Cover team in person once again at the launch party! 🙌🏻😊

 

The lovely Under Cover crew! Love these folks ❤️ (plus the people who couldn’t make it to the meetup, you were missed 🥲) Here’s to hoping our paths cross again on future projects.

 
 

Under Cover pin badges! These were a sweet gift from Gary (Creative Director & Art Director) and given to all the dev team. Cheers Gary!

 

It was a huge honour and prrivilige to get to play a small part in this project, and to get to work with such a hard-working, friendly and passionate dev team. If you’ve got a Meta Quest 2/3/Pro and you’re up for some VR lightgun fun, then it’s time to take ‘ACTION!’ and jump in - there’s no time (crisis) to waste!
