Walking the Edge of Reality

A look behind the curtain to my world...

Silence Before the Storm
Wednesday, July 15, 2009 11:45 AM

As some of you may know, I was originally planning to go to ARGFest-o-Con this year, but it simply wasn't in the stars. But, have no fear, Darklight Interactive will be represented by my "partner in crime", Vice President and Creative Director Lauren Soffer. Be nice to her, OK?

Personally, I will be out of town, visiting an undisclosed location, from the 16th to the 25th of July. I will probably not have Internet access.

As far as what's going on 'round here, we have been maintaining radio silence somewhat, but that's not because of inactivity. Things certainly are moving forward!

In the coming days we intend to launch the redesign of the DLI corporate site. The content is still the same for now, but we'll get to making that better; we simply haven't had the time to put it together so that it's more appropriate.

And, to some degree, I will be separating my personal antics from the corporate news feed. For example, my existing "DLIMedia" Twitter will most probably become a corporate one and I will find an alternative one for my own personal use (man, it's HARD coming up with a login name these days!).

Furthermore, this blog will not be used for "official" news releases. I will continue to talk a boatload of "meta" here, sure, but we're trying to be a little more official about the whole thing. News releases will come from an official DLI RSS feed and pseudo-news feed ("News feed services provided by BCN").

And, in the very near future, we're considering giving an "elite few" a sneak peak as to some of the creative we're doing for our next big adventure. We'll see how that goes.

I do have to admit something: in terms of design and development I've been personally approaching this not as if it were an ARG. It feels much closer to writing a video game, a video game that just happens to have ARG-ish elements in it. So, if you're wondering when it will be released, I refer to the traditional video game mantra of "when it's done."

I'm really pleased with how it's going, and it's only going to get better. Trust me, it'll be worth it, and it will be soon.

I will catch you all upon my return.
