Frostpunk developer 11 Bit Studios unveiled its next game at the PC Gaming Show today, a "classic sci-fi" tale of survival among the stars called Alters.
The Alters follows the adventures of Jan Dolski, who volunteers for a high-risk mission to find and extract a rare element called Rapidium that enables the creation of alternative versions of organic matter. But the mission goes wrong: The ship crashes, and Jan is the sole survivor. Alone and trapped on a hostile alien world, he's forced to use Rapidium to create alternative versions of himself—the Alters—to survive and ultimately find his way home.
Game Rant speaks with Frostpunk 2 co-game director and design director Jakub Stokalski about everything 11 bit poured into the sequel.
At a recent visit of 11 bit studios, Wccftech got hands-on with Frostpunk 2 and spoke to the development team about it. Here's the exclusive Q&A.
Josh Sawyer is a name that has been familiar to RPG fans for decades. He's worked on Icewind Dale, Neverwinter Nights 2, Alpha Protocol, Fallout: New Vegas, Pillars of Eternity, and most recently Pentiment. How did he get into game development, how has his design philosophy changed over the years, and why did he decide to do Pentiment a little differently?
Those are some great games. Icewind Dale I & II are underrated.
If Larian made Icewind Dale III, I'd lose my mind.
What a fantastic, thorough interview.
