The Island: The Earthling

[hagstrumpa]

I am really interested in your game The Island: The Earthling.
Could you please tell us a little bit more about it?
Is it going to be published outside Russia?
The game is based upon the Strugatsky brothers book Inhabited Island (a.k.a. Prisoners of Power). How closely does the game follow the story of the book? It would be really interesting to see a game handling the scope of social problems discussed in the book!

Haven't you chosen your mind to implement a full 3d system instead of myst-like?

Hello there ;)
'to tell more' - what else would you like to learn accept the information on our web-site and interview?
The WW for The Island rights belong to russian publisher Akella. We hope they are going to release this game abroad.
We are going to develop the game following the book as much as it is possible.

no. we suppose 2,5D is suitable for the games of such genre - it makes it more serious and more intelligent, if it is possible to say so.

2.5D? It is said on your site "Панорамный обзор местности от первого лица" i.e. panoramical 1st person view...
Any more surprises? :-(

Yes this is panoramical view but There is also 3d characters and objects. dynamic nature is implemented too.
