MacGamer has posted an interview with Devin Winterbottom of the Oni team. Winterbottom's official title is Oni Brand Manager, which means he managed much of the Oni promotional items. The interview reflects Oni's development and how Winterbottom feels about its release. MacGamer asked what's on everyone's mind:
I realize you can't make any official announcements or anything, but... I'm curious about whether Oni could become one of those big game franchises we see all the time these days. Has anyone ever said (even in jest) Hey, do we wanna make an Oni 2? Or an expansion pack? Trading cards? Anything? Any thoughts on this?We joke about most everything here at the Gathering. :) I can say that the strength of the brand, and the establishment of Konoko as a gaming icon like Laura and Duke mean that guys like me [marketing guys] definitely think thoughts like that.
This is a fun read to keep you busy until Oni arrives at your doorstep. Check out the interview with Devin Winterbottom right here.
