and what it reminded me a lot of was when I was a kid and played Warcraft 3 I know that's kind of weird but when I was a kid and played Warcraft 3 when you turn as arthus one of the first missions you have is you get this huge Army and then you just wreck a town and that's really what this reminded me of is did you get where did you get Iration from you just nailed it basically for Warcraft 3 like I mean the whole Undead faction I love the undead faction like the little meat wagon like we have something in our game called the meat bag which is basically like this bag on your back full of Limbs and you throw them at people like it just came straight from the meat wagon which is like a big corpse train it's amazing um but our main Inspirations were basically really like late 90s games um Dungeon Keeper is my biggest one ever I love like just monsters and you know each monster in our game has has its own personality its own AI patterns like it it really acts different than every other monster so that adds to a lot of the strategy of our game but it also makes Every Creature feel like it has you know its own identity and that's I think huge in a game like this where it's all based

know that sounds absolutely terrible but like it was so cheesy and fun I just I loved it so I mean those are my main influences Warcraft 3 you know Dungeon Keeper myth uh a lot of games from the late ' 90s I just absolutely loved that's awesome late '90s games nothing wrong WR with that now one more thing to ask is you are the the the bad character in this game but as a bad character you can still be a protagonist what is the antagonist in this game there is an evil King so basically when I say evil it's relative because everything in our game is evil right everything is dark the world is completely corrupt but you used to work for this evil King right and essentially uh he was very arrogant and wanted to live forever so you were this you know badass Alchemist you make him a vial that
