[6] In 2013, Guerilla Tea were approached by Cancer Research UK, and were eventually selected to develop the planned citizen science project, Play to Cure: Genes in Space, which was released on 4 February 2014.

The game is set 800 years in the future and places players in the employ of Bifrost Industries, a leading organisation in the processing of the fictional chemical resource, Element Alpha.

The gameplay involves players collecting Element Alpha and negotiating asteroid fields, then trading in the chemical for spaceship upgrades, and progression through the game's ‘employee ranking system’.

The company worked with Enable Scotland's East Renfrewshire Local Area Coordination Team to put on the event, which took place in Glasgow.

In tandem with this, the studio is working on a number of games which all attempt to stir up childhood nostalgia in players;[11] Sandbox TD is a part of the series and currently in development.
