Futurlab Ask Readers To Name Their Game

Remember the mysterious puzzle piece we got last week? Well, the puzzle’s over – Futurlab have announced their new game, following on from Coconut Dodge, will be a vertical scrolling space shoot ’em up featuring a rather cool teleport mechanic. We know it’s cool, because we’ve seen it and we can safely say we’ve not seen anything like this before.

However, just now, said game doesn’t have a name. Yep, the developers are asking gamers to come up with a name – via their website – and in doing so anyone shortlisted will be credited in the game and will receive a free copy once it’s out. Head on over to the site to take part, find out more about the game, and have a look around to see if there’s any other cool stuff you can find…

You might also be wondering why the ‘solved’ puzzle said the 7th of September and yet here we are with the announcement on the 6th… Dates, eh?
