Q&A + Three New Languages
Hey there everyone! We’re pushing an update to the demo today that brings bug fixes, a few quality of life changes, and three new languages: German, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese. Also included is a lot of behind-the-scenes work to support menus and the ability to pause. With all that out of the way, we’re aiming to return focus to making content. We’ll have more to share on that soon! Rat 1 is always on the road with us.Now for a Q&A with developers Boie and Nils. Let’s jump right in!For those who don't know you two, can you introduce yourselves? Who are you, and why do you make games?Boie: I’m Boie, a game developer/artist. I started getting into game development about 8 years ago. Before that I was a musician, but it wasn’t working out as a full-time profession. I worked for a while as a game designer at a company, but decided I wanted to make my own games. I discovered the Haunted PS1 community, and that flipped the switch for me that you can make small games in this DIY, punk-rock way.Nils: I’m Nils, and I would say I’m an artist/game dev. I started messing around in Blender 10 years ago, making donuts and whatever. It took a few years for me to find the right outlet for it. I grew up loving PS1 games and got involved with the indie PS1 community, participating in game jams and having a lot of fun with it; the low-poly aesthetic has really informed my art style.How did the two of you two meet? Nils: We got to know each other through the Haunted PS1 community doing game jams.Boie: When I posted looking for an artist, Nils replied way too late and the previous jam was already over. That was for a magical girl game jam. (laaughing) If we’d met sooner, CHILDREN OF SATURN would be a very different game. We decided to participate in the next game jam, which had an apocalypse theme.Nils: Our scope ended up being too big for the game jam, but we knew we had something very unique on our hands and wanted to fle...Read full article on Community Announcements (Trinity)
