Project Xylon comes from the opportunity to innovate and differentiate the culture and tradition of cruising bicycles through a serious and critical approach, involving an ample and profound knowledge of various areas of the creative and technological universe. The fact that our approach is apart from what has been done so far by other enthusiasts characterizes a great deal of our work and approach to bicycles as means of transportation and as a cultural object. Link here.

The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom

“Vincent Perea is an illustrator living in Los Angeles. He says

“The game is titled The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom and it is about a silent film star who breaks the space time continuum in order to fulfill his love of pie. The art style is what helps set this game apart.

“The style of the game is reminiscent of black and white era films and the whole art direction has an Edward Gorey, German expressionist, steampunk vibe.

“I worked as the games concept artist, and Illustrator. The game features up to 70 children’s book style Illustrations which progress the story forward.””
