Q&A with Kenon – by Fabio

Q: What inspired you to start making games?
A. That’s an easy one. Since I’ve been young, I’ve been a real fan of video games. People claim I’ve been playing them since I was 3. Also, when I was 10, I had ready access to a computer. It’s only natural of me to want to make my own games if I had been playing them for 7+ years.
Q: How do you start work on a project?
A. My process is quite wierd. First, I get a basic idea out of thin air, no idea why it came to me. Next, I elaborate on that idea by walking around in a circle outside for about an hour. No idea why that either, but it gives me a bunch of ideas. Then I work on the engine or sprites.
Q: So, you’ve been working on Platformed, a very popular title among 64Digits. What are you working on now as far as Platformed goes?
A. The last thing I was working on for PLatformed (Yesterday) was an animation of an enemy sprite. Right now, I have basic sprites done for the demo, so I’m working on animations.
Q: Any exclusive news you can give our GM Edge readers today?
A. I really don’t have much I would like to disclose, other than you can expect a demo soon from me. And no, it’s gonna be wildly different from demos in the past.
Q: What are your other interests?
A. I am very interested in mathematics, which fits well with the fact I am great at it. I also take interest in playing warcraft, drinking caffeinated beverages, and polishing my 1..2..3..4..5..6..7..8 medals for academic excellence.
Q: Care to explain your view on Platformed Wars?
A. I am a fan of having these, as it pushes me to refine and actually work on PLatformed. Since I have recently updated my knowledge of GML with Primitives and Surfaces, I hope to be much better than REZ 2 graphically.
Q: What are your expectations for your longtime project?
A. PLatformed has always had high expectations in my head. If everything goes as planned, it should be insanely amazing, kinda like a modern age seleikus. I don’t know if I spelt that right.
Q: Any last shout-outs?
A. Yes. Sadly, readers, I don’t think I’ll say ZOMG PLATFORMED DELAY until PLatformed 2: Rise of the Crysallis. (Yes, I have a name for PLatformed 2 already.)

Meh, critique the graphics if you will. I find them nice.
Oh, and btw. I liked obelisk’s music, but apparantly he left me because I like aeron’s too.
Personally, I like lighter graphics.
