MCV Staff 9th September 2009 Publishing

As revealed in our recent feature, Channel 4 has embraced the work of UK indie developers as part of its drive to deliver educational content in the form of playable, credible games.

To accompany our feature, today we’ve profiled four UK indies undertaking work for Channel 4.

Dan Marshall’s Zombie cow studio stars, which is currently working on Privates: a game that brings to light issues surrounding sexually transmitted while parodying the conventions of military shooters. Beatnik Games, which is developing an unnamed Channel 4 title along with it’s own IP, is also profiled.

Littleloud, the studio behind the BAFTA-winning Channel 4 game Bow Street Runner, is featured, along with ARG and social adventure game specialist Six to Start.
