Missing in Action, an IGN feature, tracks 'lost' PC games.
Dreamfall is on the list - scroll down - and while I wouldn't say that it's been MIA (we only announced it a year ago, and work has continued apace), it's nice to get attention. And, as usual, IGN says Nice Things. They really are a bunch of sweethearts over there.
We're working on the
Dreamfall poster designs for E3 - four in total - and boy, lemme tell ya, they're looking very sweet. Art director Christer Sveen has done a bang-up job with the hi-res models of our three leads; these are characters you will want to meet, play, know. And, hey, you will! I'm extremely happy about the team's progress these days, and I really can't wait for E3 to roll around. As for the posters; unless you're one of the Invited Few, you probably won't be able to check them out for a while yet (but I do love to tease). We need to keep some things under wraps. This could change, however, and we might stick 'em up on the official website after the show.
It's looking less and less likely that I'll have any time at all to walk the floor during E3 and check out the games: I'm fully booked, from AM to PM, with meetings, presentations, interviews. So booked, in fact, that I'll be sharing the duties of showcasing
Dreamfall with both our producer and our PR director. But I will try to walk around whenever possible and update y'all on the games I find interesting. After all, it's important to keep abreast of what everyone else is doing, and E3 really is the best place, bar none, to scope out upcoming games.
Whenever a 'fellow' game designer gets into the weblog business, I feel I should point people in that direction: it's just interesting to get an inside view of different aspects of game development. So here's
American McGee's new site, which was launched only a few days ago. Hopefully, unlike some of us, he can keep it rolling with Interesting Content. At least the art is top notch. On that note, I really do need to get around to fixing up this site at some point, and a number of you did offer to help me out with that a while ago. I might just take one of you up on that offer real soon.
