Spread too thin...?
Just a thought I had while looking at the list of current TTG projects. Arent you guys spreading yourselves a little thin? why are you working on so many games/series at once? Unless you're a LOT bigger than I get the feeling you are (I'm thinking ~20 people) or you outsource a LOT of work, I dont see how you can do it all and still make regular, high-quality, releases...
Or maybe you only employ dyslexic octopi who can work on 4 PCs at once...

From what I understand, they are only making 1 game right now: Wallace and Gromit.
Some are working on porting Sam and Max Season 2 to wii, but that isn't as big of a project.

I started right around the time the Great Cow Race was shipping, and I was the 17th or 18th person in the office. We're now up to ~60 people, which lets us work on a couple projects concurrently, while also dealing with porting the games across to other systems, work on the website, etc... so that's how we do it, mostly

I had no idea they had so many ppl, I was under the impression it was still a small "garage" operation (of course compared to companies like MS Game Studio, it is still tiny, but 60 ppl for episodic content probably (i.e. really-short-games) isn't that bad, though I still am anxious to see what happens and if tehy can indeed keep up the quality of the last games as they keep adding more projects to their lists...) |
