Thatgamecompany’s PSN game Flower has shown the world that games don’t always have to be about death & destruction, they can also touch on peacefulness and tranquility. And for their unique and innovative approach on games they have won and have been nominated for many (well deserved) awards.

Congratulations to Thatgamecompany on all the awards and nominations! We’re glad that we had the opportunity to help them create a trailer to help promote this breath taking game. We wanted to created something that really captured the essence of Flower and I think we did that in our “Remember” trailer. If you haven’t seen the trailer yet, I have posted the trailer below. It is also on Thatgamecompany’s official site and on PSN.
