a very fine      place to start

While work continues on supporting and polishing our premiere offering, “A Matter of Murder,” the studios of Worthing & Moncrieff have begun development of the next offering in the portfolio, tentatively titled “The Eyre Apparent,” a turn-based literary strategy game. Think Jane Austen meets the Dating Game with a dash of Flintstones thrown in. It’s a tongue-in-cheek riff on caustic literary rivalries, appalling preconceptions of the roles of women and men, and, of course, the unending quest to marry well.

Brainstorming began with some good old-fashioned pen-and-paper storyboarding and a bunch of really terrible ideas. We probably haven’t rooted all the clunkers yet, but we did hammer out a basic story flow and some ideas about what the gameplay mechanic might feel like. Enough to start prototyping and art development, so that’s where we’re off to next. Stay tuned.
