Two Personalities are Better than One in Our Schizoid Interview

Nicholas "bapenguin" Puleo July 10th, 2008 at 8:13 AM    


 

Schizoid hit the Xbox Live Arcade this week, and it had one bold claim - "The Most Co-Op Game Ever."   After playing this last night for a few hours (co-op review coming soon) I must say there's some clever design decisions and slick level design that definitely reinforces co-op play.  The game was released awarded to the PAX 10, so we decided to dig further into the mind of Schizoid and head back to the source.

We had a little chat with the game's Technical Director and Lead Programmer Jamie Fristrom from Torpex Games to find out just what makes Schizoid a co-op fans dream. 

Read on for our full interview.

If you're on Xbox Live, and you're older and mature (preferrably 21 and older) and you're looking for people to play co-op games like this with, send friend request to MatureCoOp1 and the friends of friends feature on Xbox Live to find people to play with. This is a silver account that I set up, so I can't send messages or play games with it.

My guess is that they are trying to figure out why news stories keep showing up Twice in my Google Reader RSS feed.

We added a few new features and needed to do some quick tests, I don't know how it got into the RSS so fast.
