Soul Jumpers Playtesters Wanted!

29872864_10155517493612151_7208946950759324405_oIt’s taken us some time to move from Game Jam excitement to development with this one, but … Soul Jumpers is finally at a stage to be playtested! We plan to piggyback on the CoRe Speed Geeking event on June 4th, 2018 to find some folks to join us.

Join Dan Williams, Darsey Meredith, and Sharon Sutherland to play a mocked-up prototype and provide us with input on game play.

  • WHEN: June 4th at 6:00pm
  • WHERE: KPMG, 11th floor, 777 Dunsmuir Street, Vancouver, BC

We will also bring additional collaborative board games and light refreshments for those who would like to stay and play a few “rounds”.

Check out the original concept!

While the game has undergone some tweaking since then – including a naming decision – the core concept remains the same: everyone must work together to search the macabre house that is slowly (or not so slowly) consuming bodies. If we can’t reach the portal with all the elements required to carry out the ritual to re-possess our bodies, we are doomed to haunt the halls forever!

 

*The original Soul Jumpers creative team (2014) is Dan Williams, Darsey Meredith, Sharon Sutherland, Ben Ziegler, Bob Wilson, and Mike Lakusta. We acknowledge considerable contributions from Rowan Meredith during the 2017 Game Jam.

This event is free to all. Access to KPMG is restricted so registration is essential. Please email coreclinic1@gmail.com.
