On February 27, 2012, Cipher Prime launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund a sequel to Auditorium titled Auditorium 2: Duet.[3] The Kickstarter campaign successfully met its funding goal.[4] In 2014, an early development version of Auditorium 2: Duet was available to play through the Indie Media Exchange showcase at SIGGRAPH in Vancouver.[5] However, after years of development, Auditorium 2: Duet would ultimately be canceled in 2017.[6]
In 2012, Cipher Prime also began hosting weekly Dev Nights and monthly Game Jams on Thursday nights from their office in Old City Philadelphia, which they made open to the public.[7] In 2013, they enlarged their office to create the Philly Game Forge, a coworking space for independent game developers.[8] For three years, the Philly Game Forge would serve as a hub for game development, hosting regular events such as weekly Dev Nights and a monthly game jams, and seeing the success of numerous game releases before the Game Forge would ultimately close its doors on June 30th, 2016.[9][10]
