Chucklefish - Business Module

Chucklefish are another game company that I have a lot of respect for. They are another small game company based in Guildford that create and publish pixel games. I love their website for a starters, it's very quirky and interesting! The best way to be! They very recently released the game called Starbound and boy is it fun! it's comparable with the game Terraria but it also has a universe to explore and is multiplayer! I've spent far too many hours on that game already. The thing I like most about it is the fact that on each planet everything is different and each creature and environment has to be treated differently. I also love the way they use pixel art in this game. It takes me back to old games that i played when I was younger. This game is also similar to Minecraft as they are going to continuously update the game in patches in order to get a good sense of feedback to improve it. Also another good game to try out!

Hello Games - Business module

 

Hello games are a small game company based in Guildford. The game company consists of 4 people and are the creators of the game series Joe Danger which is a side-scrolling, racing/platform game. You play the game as the daredevil Joe Danger, racing over obstacles and collecting coins and the like.

They have recently announced that they are creating a new game called 'No Man's Sky' which sounds like a very exciting release! The game has been compared to Minecraft but only in the sense of anything is possible and everything is explorable. The thing I find most exciting about this game is, not only is it a universe to explore but it's also planned to be a multiplayer game. It also sounds like (I really hope it will be!) it will be a massively ground breaking game! For such a small game company to make such a big dent would be amazing and I hope it inspires other to do the same with their games and to do things differently! The most baffling thing is that before a trailer of this game was broadcast over the VGX awards show, several people told them to not show it as it was strange and consumers wouldn't understand it. I say it's high time gamers got something different to the mediocre and bland FPS games of today, and instead get an exciting new worlds that everyone experiences differently. I really hope the game goes well for them!

  

 I love this piece of artwork for the game. They've very cleverly worked red, pink and blue into this  scene in order to show the depth and size of the environment. I get the feeling the entire game will be made this way, bright and colourful. This will be a big change from the FPS that are dull and boring, so this game should be exciting! Have a look at some of the other concept pieces they have ;)
