Some of the best writers making games today decided to form a publisher "an hour" after a call: Slay the Princess and 1000xResist devs team up for new sci-fi adventure

Slay the Princess developer Black Tabby Games has announced the formation of Black Tabby Publishing. Alongside the developer's own upcoming games, the new outfit has signed two games so far, with the first being Prove You're Human. This sci-fi narrative adventure is the next project from Sunset Visitor, developer of the much-celebrated 1000xResist, which I called "one of gaming's best-written and best-paced narratives".

"Slay the Princess made a lot of money. It's funded our next two projects already, and this felt like a good way to be able to extend the opportunities it's given us to other developers and get more cool games in the world," says Black Tabby co-founder Tony Howard-Arias when I ask about launching the publishing arm. The Nebula-nominated indie has now sold over one million copies.
