Do you think gaming is in dire need of more cartoon mice, cats and wabbits?
I think life is in dire need of more cartoon mice, cats and wabbits. (Having said that, people should be careful not to draw conclusions about what we’re working on from minimal data…) Somewhere along the line I guess I got a reputation for making serious games, but I’ve always been a cartoon fanatic. I wrote my Masters thesis on cartoons, worked on two paper role-playing games that recreated the cartoon experience, and have tried forever to get some publisher to back a cartoony game. Some day… What games are you currently excited about? What do you make of what you’ve seen of BioShock? All I’ve seen of Bioshock is a feature in the June 2006 issue of PC ZONE and a bunch of post-E3 coverage. I didn’t get to see it, live, at the show. Darn you, Ken Levine! After all we’ve been through together… What I’ve seen looks awesome. The art direction is especially nice, and I have a lot of confidence that Irrational will continue making the kind of games I like to make and play. Other stuff
