We get signal!


Backstory: I am lucky enough to work as a games designer for Interzone. My work is primarily systems design, which means a lot of thinking about what sorts of mechanics and interactions might make a game fun and playable, and then doing a bunch of maths and prototyping to make sure it is actually feasible. I design the guts of games. Like, their intestines.

Actual Content: Anyway, after a really long period of biting our tongues, we can finally announce the title we have been working on all this time: Interzone Futebol!. As Dozer emphatically states in The Matrix: 'Its a very exciting time!'. Firstly, because we can finally talk about the game now (can you imagine how excruciating it is to work on something really exciting and not be able to tell any of your friends about it?), and secondly because gaming sites are starting to pick up the press release: Interzone Futebol is getting a mention on games sites like Gamers Hell, gi, SpawnPoint, DailyGamer, TenTonHammer, MondesPersistants (Persistant Worlds), and mcvuk.

Only one such as Big Kev had words that could adequately sum up this eventful occasion: "I'm Excited". And so is Joseph.

Update: IGN have an interview posted just over nyah.
