ICARIAN: KINDRED SPIRITS


In case you haven't heard of them, a small group of ex-pyro workmates founded their own company named Over the top games, and they've been working on a new title for the Wiiware channel: Icarian Kindred Spirits (sorry, it's in spanish).

I'm really happy, I worked with almost all of them, and I sincerely wish the best for this title. One of them told me it was really hard to finish the game, but now they're about to complete it it's really rewarding.

With these new commercial channels that next-gen consoles allow (Playstation Store, XBLA, Wiiware) maybe more people will dare to create their own companies. Who knows, maybe I'll have the guts to do the same some day...

WORK IN PROGRESS


As you may have noticed I haven’t updated this blog lately. The reason is I’m focusing on a new project: I’m writing a novel. It’s something I always wanted to do, and since I’ve got the time and money I decided going for it. Being said that, I’m not quitting from the videogame industry. I keep in touch with my fellow ex-workmates, and I’m planning to go back to the trenches as soon as I finish the book. In the meantime I’m looking forward to feed the blog as often as it’s possible. Have fun!
