Lume Nominated for Best of 2011 by Jay Is Games. We need your votes!

14.01.2012

Sometimes you get weeks where everything seems to be happening at once, and, in this particular instance, that’s fantastic.  Right after our recent nomination at IGF, we’re delighted to discover that the highly respected folks at JayIsGames.com have nominated Lume for their Best Games of 2011.   And we need your help!  If you can head over to the site and vote for it that would be very kind of you!  And if you think it deserves the title ‘Game of the Year’ make sure to tick the box at the top of the page.  Apparently you can vote every day.  If you can do that that, and some might say that’s above and beyond the call of duty, we would furnish you wish something lavish.  A bit of early Lume concept art? Bits of the model we mangled with glue before we stuck it together?  We would rummage round the studio for you and see what we can find.

Thanks again you all for all your support for Lume!

Lume Independent Games Festival finalist

11.01.2012

We are chuffed to bits and a little bit elated to discover that Lume has been nominated for Excellence in Visual Art at the Independent Games Festival in San Francisco, we have been mostly jumping around our studio with a massive smile on our faces since we found out.  There was such huge competition with  nearly 600 fantastic games submitted for consideration. We were so pleased the Lume has been recognized for it’s achievements. After working hard on something it’s great to see the Indie community enjoy it too. Here is one of the the jurors comments about the game.

“Lume is beautiful and fascinating and it’s like playing a game in a children’s book. Technically, there is some pretty interesting things happening here that you have to see for yourself.”

“Lume is such a handsome feast… overall, very lush and touching. The rich contrast, lighting and depth of field made me feel cozy.”

We are really looking forward to taking part in the event, and meeting all the other nominated people at GDC and IGF. It’s great to see many other Brits nominated as well, it just goes to show the Indie community is thriving over here. The award ceremony is 7th March, so look out for more updates in the run up to it.
