We know we have something, we know what we have is potentially really exciting, we think it might be exciting to Sony, but to be honest we are the banana in a box of apples……

An interesting development process ensues, I think we’ve spent the 10k in advance on post it notes and midnight oil, so it is a relief when we meet a fellow pitcher Onteca at the Media Festival and realise we’re all up against it.

We are keen to move across into the gaming world,   traditional gaming is, we think and (have some evidence to support),  open to moving in to entertainment that is defined beyond what is know and labelled as traditional gaming…… but as a company with an expertise in cross platform narratives and technology development, how far across do we go?

Lots of time spent debating the lines between entertainment and gaming, passive and active engagement and where narrative fits in.  So much so that I find myself sitting with an equally scary bunch of gaming types at a Matt Costello event @ the BBC organised by NWVM…………  Inspired? Terrified? Who Knows.

I also attend  narrative in gaming event with a fab company (what the hell are they called? he looks like Matt Lucas with curly grey hair) who help me through designing a shoot ‘em up – at the beeb – another NWVM event.  Am I any the wiser?

And how exactly is this helping? Sometimes not knowing what you don’t know is a distinct advantage.
