“Frederick wants to make a real infiltration game, as playable as gloomy! It is probably that, the idea of the Retro Survival: an uncompromising ‘old-school’ gameplay!” enthuses Thierry Platon, his sidekick. “Retro, it’s also for the pixels and the voxels!” adds Frederick.
“With Alone in the Dark, I worked first on the game technology thinking of what it could bring to the game mechanics, and that’s what created the gameplay and set the track for story. I am rather confident to my methods. For 2Dark, I started tinkering by defining the graphical rendering I want.
Now, as it was never done, I am creating the necessary tools. The first one is a voxels’ editor which allows to create and animate the characters and to render them as they will be in the game. And I’m approaching the goal…Discover my researches on our blog!”
