All ongoing projects temporarily put on hold and experimental working prototypes created as Square Enix Montréal dedicates an entire week to studio-wide game jam

During one week in September Square Enix Montréal ran its inaugural ‘Square Jam’ – an event where all the studio members assembled into small teams to create a game of their choice focused around the theme of ‘exposed’.

Following a week of intense productivity and fun, the teams submitted a variety of prototype games that reflected Square Enix Montréal’s creative spirit, including projectile reflecting witchery in Aegis; using a mobile phone in the corporate afterlife of Fate, Incorporated; hunting space hunters online in Space Hunter Hunt; and the camera-wielding private detective of Overexposed‘s hotel complex.

Whilst there are no current plans to formally release any of these titles you can watch a short video of these concepts here:

Shame if some of these don’t get turned into mobile games as it would be win/win for the studio. Either way I do want that photo taking game to happen! And here is the official Square Jam post on the Square Enix Montréal blog:
