Love and Other Disasters

Synopsis

Jacks is an assistant editor at UK Vogue and forms the centre of her group of friends, taking an 'Emma'-like role as she match-makes and steers them through their disastrous relationships. Her gay flatmate Peter is a particular focus of her repeated attempts to help him find true love. But when will Jacks realise she needs to focus on her own less than ideal love life? And when will Peter stop letting his imagination of the ideal lover get in the way of real-life happiness?

Love and Other Disasters provides us with a witty glance into a glittering group of friends and their London life, whilst examining the difference between life and love as it is in the movies and how it is in real life.

Year: 2025

Ghost Town is a single player VR puzzle-adventure set in 1980s Britian from the makers of The Room. Life has been going well for Edith. The paranormal detective agency she runs with her flatmate has never been busier, she’s almost up-to-date with her rent and the ghosts in her bathroom mirror have been less demanding than usual. But Edith’s world is turned upside down when her brother goes missing and a mysterious new lead promises to reveal clues of his whereabouts. Edith’s journey begins with a visit to a remote Scottish island in the hope a gifted clairvoyant can provide some much-needed answers.
