Hi everyone! Remember last year when we interviewed Chris Jones on the eve of Project Fedora's kickstarter? Well we're having another special guest tied in with the project. Matt Van Rhoon, the VFX artist on the project, will be joining us :D.

He'll be on the show this thursday at 9:45 PM EDT to accommodate the time difference between Sydney Australia (where he is currently), and Washington D.C.

Like when Tex was on, I'm open to any questions the community might have for Matt, so lay 'em on me if you've got 'em either here, on twitter, or over on the RetroNick Radio Facebook page. Links to all that can be found at http://www.retronick.com.

Thanks!

My question for Mat is regarding the interface during gameplay. I wondered if the interface was going to be like unto the interface on the Overseer game of if you decided to revert back to the original (and in my opinion better) interface. I also wondered about the multi-platform option explored during the kickstarter campaign, which systems are you planning on operating on? Thank you very much!

Haha! FAIL! I need to check out the forums here more often...

I don't have a full answer for you, because so little is known about the interface, but don't expect anything like any of the past games. This one will certainly have a modernized, and much easier-to-use interface. I mention more in the "Mat is on in 15" thread.
I just listened to the podcast and it's great! Long and in-depth, as well as professional.

I'm so psyched.
Thank you much Matthew!
