Digital Noob Interview with Cesar & Katie!

[KatieHal]

Cesar & I had a great long talk with Bryan Todd from Digital Noob recently, and Part 1 of 3 (!!) of that interview is now up at their site for the Week of Phoenix! Here are a few sound bites:

DN: Okay, so... My first question: Cognition, Season Two. Possible or definite?

DN: There's some interesting ways that Boston people pronounce certain words, like 'chowder'.

KH: ...which clearly has an 'a-h' at the end of it. *laughs*

DN: I've noticed myself that some of the things I might have criticized in the first episode have been improved upon in the second. It's good to see that forward motion.

CB: We do hear what you guys say! We read every review out there.

DN: That's wonderful to know, because sometimes it doesn't feel like the people making the games are actually really listening.

[Balinaeri]

That was awesome. And how did I miss the nod to GK and SS in the paint cans??? It's right there in front of you. Silly me.

[KatieHal]

Part 2 is up today!

With a little hint of what lies in the future?

DN: What are your upcoming projects, aside from the next two episodes of Cognition and Moebius with Jane Jensen, is there anything else on your plate?

CB: We have a few ideas. Nothing formalized yet. There's this game called 'The Endless Forest'. We want to go back to our TSL community and maybe together with TSL 5, we'll release this game. It's interesting because The Endless Forest is part of what used to be the bigger King's Quest 9, when it was huge and nine chapters and impossible to make. It used to have a section where Alexander and Rosella would visit this place called The Endless Forest and there was a city called Stratos, which was the City of Time. A lot of those ideas are really interesting, and we never really used them on what became The Silver Lining, so that might be our next project if we agree to it any nothing else comes along. We might do a Kickstarter for it, actually.

DN: Anything come to mind for you, Katie?

KH: There was another product that I did an outline for a while ago, the working title for it was 'Mirror Wraith', which was about these two sisters and they were basically facing off against these malicious ghosts and kind of discovering their own magic powers. I liked the idea for it and I've given more thought to it and I'd kind of like to make that it to sort of a Young Adult Paranormal thing. So, maybe aimed at a slightly younger crowd, like the Vampire Diaries demographic.

[KatieHal]

Part 3, the thrilling conclusion!

[GrahamRocks!]

Waitwaitwait...! Stratos?! As in Astratos, The City of Time from TSL episode 2?!

[KatieHal]

Yeah, the word didn't get transcribed quite right, but that is what we were talking about.
