Joystiq talks to Penny Arcade Adventures devs


Our power hungry potentates at Joystiq managed to snag Ron Gilbert and Joel DeYoung from Hothead games for an interview concerning Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness, the upcoming episodic title for XBLA. Gilbert and DeYoung discuss what it's like to work with Mike Krahulik and Jerry Holkins of Penny Arcade, and also the challenges of translating a 2D comic into a 3D adventure game. The Hothead devs also discuss the reasoning behind the episodic structure for the game their plans to release new episodes every four months (woot). Hit the "read" link and soak it all in. You'll be glad you did.
