Benjamin used to play more games than make them. He also used to strive towards being a professional animator so much he even did an undergraduate degree in the subject. Yet about two and half years into his degree a suprising shift pointed him towards game design and with making Flash titles in his spare time and applying for the MA in Games Design he found a deep passion within himself that would insure he never looked back. Using the skills he had learned in script writing, Flash, Illustrator and pre-production animation he started to make games through the MA whilst learning and honing a multitude of different skills. After achieving a distinction grade and creating “Littleton to the Rescue” on the MA he joined forces with Pete Bottomley to form White Paper Games.

After a lot of hard work, design and planning we can finally reveal to you the first screenshots showcasing the distinct art style of our game in development, Ether. After many different iterations and experimentations of the art style we are extremely happy with the direction our creative artist, Oliver John Farrell has taken. As a studio we feel it complements the exciting world that we are currently creating and the explorative and puzzle based game play that we are striving to create. We wanted to create something that stood out from the crowd and really drew you into the mysterious world of Ether and the secrets that it contains.

I am not going to say much else apart from this and let the images take up the major part of this post, all I can say is that as O.J. continues with the art for Ether he will be keeping a distinct blog showcasing his work which we will reveal as soon as it is ready as well as post updates as and when we can.
