I loaded up the prototype and played it through, I didn’t stop. I’d already seen the content on Twitter and thought it looked interesting. Matt sent me the original prototype to this day. But once you understand it, you start to discover the consequences, there’s this domino effect, in which you simply think of holy shit! That’s cool, because the basic setup of the picture mechanic hold up a photo and that image becomes reality, according to Backer. It’s very worth reading what people come up with.īacker is keen to share his experiences on an early prototype of Viewfinder, but the rest of us are close to playing the game. You might suddenly see some pretty Inception-like screenshots. You can make really cool photos, where you slice a chunk of the world and you repeat it like 10 times, and it is upside down and twisted in different angles and stuff.

It’s not only that they want to see it being played, but they want to see what they can accomplish with it and what it will allow them to do. While the pair were delighted and surprised to have won, spending much of our time together studying which of the competitions games had interested them the most, they nonetheless shared the excitement we felt about getting our hands on Viewfinder.Īccording to Stark, one thing that is really cool about it is that once people see it, they want to get their hands on it. It’s not simply photos, but it’s also a visual representation game that sees you getting in painted worlds.

After the game is finished, the game has a whole new potential for creativity and experimentation, we were certain that people’s problem-solving will be visible on social media. However, it can take a lot more practice. You could take a photo of a bridge, and lo and behold, that bridge will appear before you, opening up a new path.

Take a picture, and then hold it up in front of you, and its contents become a part of the world. The player interacts with the games world via a polaroid camera.

But, as I say, I’ll do my best to a print publication. Viewfinder is a unique puzzle game built on a truly fascinating mechanic that is best seen in action. However, it could only be one winner the UK’s very own Robot Turtle went home to the winner of Europlay 2021. I had the honor of judging a range of intriguing new titles from a bear who runs a B&B in the woods to a suspiciously sexy Poirot as media partners of Ukies UK Game of the Show and Europlay (think Eurovision but for unreleased video games). Talking to individuals who work in the games industry.

Because it may sound like an outsider, you’re right. Late last month, I had something of a little strange experience.
