Introducing Tributary Games.

Tributary Games is a new, London-based indie games company with something exciting in the works that we can’t talk about yet. Not quite yet. Give us a few weeks, and watch this space. 

What we can tell you is that we love stories, and collaborative storytelling in particular. Whether they’re told around a campfire or a D&D table, stories told in a group will mutate and evolve beyond the control of any one individual. 

Our ambition with Tributary is to create innovative multiplayer games that facilitate that same feeling - social narrative games, where stories are fuelled and expanded by the push and pull of role-playing, imagination, and complex social dynamics.

And as established, we’re working on something big, and we are growing our team to do it. Tributary Games currently consists of the following co-founders:

- Samuel Partridge, Studio Lead. Formerly at Failbetter Games and Fusebox, Sam developed a critically lauded choose-your-own-adventure game, Over the Alps, with Stave Studios and has also worked on Sunless Sea and Fallen London; 

- Harry Tuffs, Narrative Lead. Harry wrote and programmed his own indie RPG, A House of Many Doors, and went on to write extensively for Failbetter’s Sunless Skies and Fallen London, as well as work on Over the Alps as a narrative designer;

- Owen Newburn, Technical Lead. Formerly of Babylon Health, Owen will be bringing an immense wealth of technical experience from outside the games industry to help make our project a reality.

Over the coming weeks, we will be hiring for other roles as we grow our team to meet the demands of our project.
