We are so excited to show you how far our game has come since we wrote our master thesis about narrative game design a few years ago and are thrilled to announce our Open Beta starting on December 10th!
The Beta will give you a taste of Tick Tock: A Tale for Two and you will be able to play our first chapter way before it releases in Q1 2019! To take part in the beta, all you need to do is join our Discord Server, here you can get beta keys and connect to other players who are looking for a friend to play with.
The beta takes place between December 10th and January 7th, 2019, and is exclusive to Steam and iOS. Don’t forget that the game will be cross-platform so you can connect with a friend via iOS while you play on Steam!
Keep an eye on the clock so you don’t miss it - after all, time is a fickle thing.
More updates soon! Follow us on twitter.

EGX 2018 was awesome! Here's what the press thought...
We are so happy to have been part of this years Leftfield Collection at EGX. It was such an honor to showcase Tick Tock next to so many other creative game developers, but most of all seeing you all enjoy Tick Tock: A Tale For Two with your friends and putting your co-operative skills to the test was an amazing experience!
The EGX blues have hit us hard this time around and we are already looking forward to next time!
Here are some reviews from EGX:
“It's teasing stuff - the whole of the game has a sense that time is running out, with the sound of ticking clocks and organic-looking clock pieces and cogs, and there's a larger story going on too” - Eurogamer
“There’s very few games out there that make you fist bump the air when you’ve figured something out. Tick Tock is one of those games!” - FingerGuns
“Tick Tock: A Tale for Two was another stand out for me, but you do need a friend to play it with as its nifty asymmetric co-op puzzles can’t be solved alone.” - Rock Pager Shotgun

“Perhaps one of the most clever game ideas I’ve ever seen” - Touch Arcade
“Along with an intriguing backstory, these puzzles left me craving the next two chapters in the title” - DFTG

We're in The PAX 10 Indie Showcase!
We're so excited to let you all know that we'll be at PAX West this week as part of The PAX 10 indie showcase!
Each year a group of 50 industry experts select the ten best indie games in regard to gameplay and overall fun-factor from those submitted. These top titles are then included in The PAX 10 showcase. We're so thrilled to have made the cut!
This is the first time we'll be showcasing at PAX so we're really excited to see how it's received. Because you can play Tick Tock cooperatively across platforms, we'll have a PC and Tablet set up on the show floor!
For those of you heading to PAX West this week, we'll be onstage with fellow indies from the showcase on Saturday at 7:30 PM. Find out more here.
We can't want to see some of you there and we'll make sure to share photos on twitter and on here when we return.
