Mojo interviews Autumn Moon

February 6th, 2010

The International House of Mojo have just posted a great extensive interview with Bill Tiller, head honcho at Autumn Moon Entertainment. The interview goes into the hardships of making an adventure game in a small studio, but it also contains hopeful notes. Bill mentions that if all goes well, the second A Vampyre Story game might be released in 2010. Another interesting aspect of the interview is the backstory of Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island, as related by Bill Tiller himself. All in all, you should really just read it.


New preview as release draws closer

February 5th, 2010

MCV’s Retail Biz have managed to snag an exclusive preview of the upcoming Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island. Though it’s rather brief - and therefore contains precious little new information - it’s worth a read. Of special interest is the little table at the bottom of the article, which lists the release date as February 19, at a price of 19.99 (pounds sterling, I assume).

Jean-Louis Sirois, who has been known to create pretty pictures for Autumn Moon Entertainment games, has once again posted some nice concept art on his blog. This time, you can look at some characters (including a parrot) for Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island, to tide you over until the game is released in English. A small comfort: Jean-Louis himself has not yet had the chance to play the game either.
