We're hiring! We're looking for a Writer and Narrative Designer to join the Fallen London team at a senior or mid level. This position is permanent, remote, and full time, which for us means 35 hours a week. #GamesJobs
Night. The House of Chimes - a tower which you might immediately think of as Big Ben - is adrift in the River Thames. It still seems to be keeping time. In the background, a large, alien building looms over the city of London.

It is my humble duty to explain: The parts of marketing that are super visible, like ARGs, flashy stands at Gamescom, or deluxe boxes of merch sent to creators are lovely. but they're the tip of the iceberg of what marketing work is, and they don't do anything without the foundations:

Marketing graphic for Nintendo Streetpass on the 3DS. It shows white stick figures going about their days and the two in the middle are walking away from each other, one has a tote bag the other a briefcase. It shows 3DSes in their bags and green arrows forming a circle between the people. At the bottom is two 3DSes doing a wireless communication thing between them.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a horseshoe crab watches as a variety of prehistoric creatures swim towards an ethereal light. An ammonite calls back to the crab, “come on, horseshoe crab! We’re all evolving!” Panel 2: the horseshoe crab stays in position and replies, “nahh that’s crazy” Panel 3: the horseshoe crab is superimposed in front of a future premonition: a rather miserable-looking human slouched in the glow of a desktop computer. The horshoe crab swims away and says, “good luck tho”
