Description

Force Of Habit is an independent games studio founded by Ashley Gwinnell and Nick Dymond.

History

History

Nick Dymond and Ashley Gwinnell met at a local game jam event in Bristol. After their jam game placed second in the Extended Play Festival that year, they returned as a team to participate in the Global Game Jam and developed Omnivium. With similar interests discovered in audio-oriented and experimental game design, they continued working together in game jams, continually raising the bar on what they could achieve in short bursts of time. After Ashley finished his degree in Computer Science, Nick quit his job and Force Of Habit was born.

Recent

Since formation, Force Of Habit have been working hard on their debut release. Toast Time, due early 2013.
