Quest for GC: Behind the Scenes, Part 5
Posted by Rockjaw in Community, Jobsworth, MMO-related on September 3rd, 2008
When I originally started writing these, I thought I’d be finished in this part. Clearly I can’t count: at a rate of two episodes per part, with eleven episodes to talk about, I won’t be finished until part six.
The fact that I can’t do simple division won’t be a surprise to my mother, but it is a continuing source of disappointment to my secondary school maths teacher, Mr Chenery. Sorry, sir. Read the rest of this entry »

Now this is where it gets complicated. Why? Because we started to shoot out of sequence, that’s why…
Episode 5: Looking forward to…
This was supposed to be an easy episode. In fact, it was supposed to be the throwaway, edited quickly, filler episode between other episodes – hell, it was practically supposed to be a clip show. (Hmm. Could I do a clip show? Very possibly….)
Brief was simple; loads of people who are going to the Games Convention telling us what they’re most looking forward to. In one word. Or one sentence. Or one paragraph just please don’t monopolise the camera as there are others who need to be part of this thing thank you.

Okay, here we go with Part the Second of my look into the hellish, never-ending… ermm… fun experience I’m in right now called Quest for GC. Nah, it’s all good. Just busy.

Quest for GC: Behind the Scenes, Part 1
Posted by Rockjaw in Community, Jobsworth, MMO-related on August 26th, 2008
Right now, despite what this post is telling you, it’s July 22nd where I am. The Games Convention in Leipzig is just under a month away, and we just released Quest for GC – Episode 3: Languages.
If all goes according to plan, by the time you read this, we’ll have released all fourteen episodes.
Of course, I just need to make the other eleven, first….
