At this weekend's Rezzed event in London, one game that caught my interest was a first person puzzle game by indie outfit Bulkhead Interactive. Supported by Square Enix as part of their 'Square Enix Collective' indie publishing initiative, "The Turing Test is a first person puzzler from the developers of Pneuma: Breath of Life that explores the phenomena of consciousness and challenges the meaning of human intuition". Whilst this certainly sounds intriguing, what really captured my attention was how the game reminded me of slower, more methodical titles such as Portal, The Witness, Adr1ft, and The Talos Principle. Coming out on XBox One and PC later this year, I spoke to Howard Philpott (Creative Producer, Bulkhead Interactive) about his creation, and also got to ask him as to what motivated him and his Bulkhead Interactive team to seek the publishing support of Square Enix.
