FuturLab Has Two Satellite Teams!

Prototyping Projects

We were invited by Abertay University to take part in a groundbreaking initiative that sees students embark on prototyping projects with established studios.

Students from separate courses including Production, Programming, Art & Design were brought together to form two game development teams to work on briefs supplied by us. The two teams totalling over 20 students are now working on prototypes; the results of which will remain under FuturLab’s ownership.

FuturLab’s satellite teams (‘Velocity Raptors’ & ‘Sasquatch’) at Abertay University’s PlayStation Vita Lab, a new initiative to get students ready for the workplace.

The two teams will be presenting their fully playable prototypes later this year, one of which is a spin off from the Velocity series, and one a completely new concept that carries the same design ethos as other FuturLab games.

    Any chance the public will see these prototypes?

      Hopefully! It will depend entirely on whether we choose to proceed with the prototypes, and can get them funded and published =)
