Played the game for a little bit. Kind of weird to see someone approach you on the GPS and have to kill them.

Impressive design and intro of the app. I really liked the video you guys made at the beginning of the app. I never seen anything like that. Would you mind sharing with us how you did that?

Thank you! Basically it is a series of 2 seconds square videos with a small interaction: you tilt your iPhone to explore the videos. Just like photos in Paper by Facebook.

The videos and transitions were filtered with a combination of destructive After Effects filters. Some of the effects were achieved by using a nice little iPhone app called Glitché.

We intentionally lowered the quality when we exported the videos so that they look 'authentic'.
