Interview
Meweight interviewed me, and here's the interview (by the way, i'm josh1billion, that's my aim name and this interview was done over aim):
MeweightX: Hello, F2005!
josh1billion: hey
MeweightX: I'm here to interview you about your new game, PowerPet Adventure, and any upcoming projects!
josh1billion: Ok, interview away =)
MeweightX: First question.
MeweightX: What gave you the idea to make a virtual pet game?
josh1billion: Well, if you have a dreamcast and Sonic Adventure 2, you may know that you can download the virtual pet game 'Chao Adventure 2' to your VMU [virtual memory unit]. I was playing that, and it struck me: "This would be a great idea for a game for me to make!" It was simple enough to make, yet, fun to play.
MeweightX: Okay. How did you create characters such as Dark Bomber?
josh1billion: I needed to add some more pets, so I just opened up the sprite editor and started drawing. Dark Bomber was a pet based on Bomberman, and I think I'll use him as a boss in an upcoming PowerPet game.
MeweightX: Upcoming PowerPet game? Aha! That was exactly what I was going to ask you next! Have you begun planning a sequel for this wondefully-made game?
josh1billion: Yeah, I'm thinking about a platform-adventure game to be called PowerPet World. You'll have a world map to travel, and you'll go from level to level and fight bosses and stuff. I'm planning on using the pets in PPA as pets that you can talk to and ask for advice.
MeweightX: Awesome! Wow! But will there be a Virtual Pet PPA sequel? Also, do you think that these two games will lead to more? A fad even for Game Maker players everywhere?
josh1billion: A PPA sequel... Hmm... You know, I have thought about making a sequel to it, but, I don't really plan on it. If enough people ask for a sequel, I'll have to make one, but if they don't, probably not. As for a fad, I hope so.
MeweightX: Are there any non-PPA upcoming projects that you're planning to work on?
josh1billion: Hmm... I'm trying to stick to a rule of "only start a new game when you finish one", but ideas are always popping up in my head. I'm not planning on any non-PPA titles yet, but there'll probably be one soon
MeweightX: Well, this concludes our interview! *shakes F2005's hand*
MeweightX: Bye!
