Hi again Phillip!
Here are the Atmosfear™ DVD questions. I understand if you cannot answer them all, and thanks very much in advance for replying!
Are there any other Atmosfear™ products in production, apart from the DVD game?
SORRY CAN'T COMMENT JUST YET.
Which actor is playing the gatekeeper? Is it still Wenanty Nosul? If not, will you be able to tell us who it is?
NO IT IS A NEW GATEKEEPER AND HIS NAME AT THE MOMENT IS BEING KEPT UNDER WRAPS.
Will the gatekeeper look similar in appearance?
NO, BECAUSE THIS IS A BRAND NEW GAME THIS GATEKEEPER LOOKS DIFFERENT THAN THE ORIGINAL.
Will the gatekeepers appearance change during the hour? Will there still be a clock ticking away the time?
HE DOESN'T PHYSICALLY CHANGE BUT HIS ENVIRONMENT DOES WHICH INFLUENCES HIS LOOK AND YES THERE IS A CLOCK BECAUSE Atmosfear™ HAS ALWAYS BEEN A RACE AGAINST TIME.
Will the DVD be in widescreen, and/or 5.1? (5.1 Atmosfear™ would be AMAZING, just think of the possible uses for the subwoofer and rear speakers! widescreen would be a nice bonus too). If not in either, why not? And would you consider the option if you have not considered it? More than half the population of the UK have widescreen sets, so its a big market! Even if the extra space is just "filler" it makes it look a lot nicer than black borders.
ALL OF THE ABOVE. THE DVD IS IN WIDE SCREEN WITH 5.1 SOUND AVAILABLE. INFACT THE PEOPLE WORKING ON THE AUDIO DID WORK ON MOULIN ROUGE AND A NUMBER OF OTHER FILMS SO THE SOUND WILL BE AMAZING.
Which countries will the game be released in?
CAN'T COMMENT AT PRESENT.
How *interactive* will Atmosfear™ be? How often do you get to interact, will it just be a case of the gatekeeper knowing who you are or will he ask questions and you have to reply with answers?
ON THIS YOU WILL HAVE TO WAIT TO PLAY THE GAME, BUT IT IS AN INTERACTIVE DVD GAME.
Will people who have a DVD player but no remote still be able to play the game properly?
NO, YOU NEED A REMOTE WITH THE PLAYER. MY PLAYER WOULDN'T WORK WITHOUT A REMOTE ANYWAY.
Is the possibility of finishing the original series doubtful due to lack of demand or lack of interest on the creative team? Or are their issue involving the old company vs the new company?
VHS IS NOW HISTORY SO THERE IS NO PURPOSE. ALSO, A COUPLE 'A COWBOYS STILL EXISTS THOUGH I AM NOW THE SOLE DIRECTOR AS BRETT HAS LEFT THE COMPANY.
Is there any chance you could release any sort of media, pictures etc perhaps to the fansite? Perhaps teaser trailers or photos? Any media at all?
I CAN'T COMMENT ON THIS AT PRESENT BUT I DO KNOW YOU ARE OUT THERE.
Is the basis of the game still the same, writing down your Nightmare™, collecting keys, etc?
SORRY CAN'T COMMENT ON THIS AT PRESENT.
Is there a big back-story? Any interesting comics to read like in the harbingers?
AS ABOVE.
What is the number of minimum/maximum players who will be able to play?
LIKE LAST GAME - 3 TO SIX THOUGH 4-6 IS BETTER.
Will music feature in the game? Will it be like the original Atmosfear™? Will there be something on the screen "changing", like the moon in the first Atmosfear™, the heartbeat in the second etc.
LIKE THE ORIGINAL, MUSIC IS A KEY FACTOR IN CREATING THE Atmosfear™.
Will the gameplay be totally different each time you play? How many different combinations do you estimate there could be? Will you be disabling the pause function on the DVD?
YOU'LL NEVER PLAY THE SAME GAME TWICE AND I HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT HOW MANY DIFFERENT COMBINATIONS THERE ARE BUT IT IS A LOT.
Any other inside info you can let us know? It would be fantastic if you could release anything to us of interest, although i understand if you can't.
SORRY
And finally, will we get a special "fan link" on the upcoming official Atmosfear™ site?
I CAN'T SAY YES OR NO AT PRESENT AS THIS WILL ALSO BE UP TO MY BUSINESS PARTNERS.
Cheers, and i look forward to the answers!
THANKS JAMIE.
