NEW TOWN

Explore an impoverished northern town at midnight, drink from a 2 litre plastic bottle of cider, uncover some hope, bury it deeper or just soak in the atmosphere. 

After World War II a new towns movement began in the UK, a scheme for building and planning self-sufficient towns that encouraged community. Over half a century later, much of this hope has collapsed. This game explores the themes of growing up in one of these towns, the confusing mixture of living in a tight knit community and the depressing limbo of being silently left by the wayside.
