In Response To: Re: Island Four (pretty long) Story of Events (vector40) : Good Lord. : This is like developer soap opera. : So, to clarify: Island Four [sic] consisted of Nathan, and you, and... what?
He had hired, err spent money on two other people that have since fallen off the earth. Randy? some military guy that I never met, and Bitner only spoke with via phone and Eric, who turned out to be very set in his ways of design. Bitner said, I never saw it, that Eric had created a logo(s) and some other work, something with a dragon. Supposedly, when Bitner tried to get him to change it, he refused, then there was an argument, and Bitner just threw some money at him. Wonder if that check cleared? To summarize, I4 had a total of 5 employees, if you could call them that, Nathan, Gemini (she did some lame-o high school pot head artwork that looked sorta cool under black lights), Eric, Randy, and me. Seems that Eric is the only one that got any money out of him. Gemini just got a place to live for a while, and Randy probably didn't give a fuck. As far as the game idea itself, I'm not sure I want to disclose all of it, as some of the stuff was very workable. It's no Halo, but it would still make a cool game. I can tell you that Bitner had wanted it to revolve strongly around astrology, so we did do a lot of research on the matter, but that was mostly for story line. It would have been very "branchable" if that's a word, in which the story would take multiple paths at various points. I had conceived a marketing plan that I think Meg would enjoy to rev the hype engine up. No it wasn't the Sharon letters, even though I wrote them, they were Bitner's idea. Tim | |
