Unshakably intrigued by the latest sneak peek at Kevin ‘potatojin‘ Cancienne’s P1VP2, a game he’s due to reveal in New York City Thursday evening, at a free Babycastles & The Game Innovation Lab-hosted lecture event where he’ll also discuss “his work, why he thinks it might be time for a 3D revolution in the indie scene, and the benefits of being a mediocre programmer.”

Cancienne — a newly-minted indie formerly of area/code, where he co-designed the super brilliant & essential iOS puzzler Drop7 — has been quiet on what exactly the game will entail, only hinting that its first playtest is “meant mostly to be played over an evening in a party setting.”

Any New York-natives attending the event & willing to bring back first-hand accounts would be eternally appreciated!
