Thrillville - Developer Diaries Week Six
Just call it "research..."
Another aspect to all this is of course the fact that Thrillville has a massive variety as a videogame. We really wanted to make sure that every aspect of a theme park was covered in this game in an interactive way and our "research" has concluded that any self-respecting park boasts an awesome arcade and sweet games on the midway. Because of this, a large selection of minigames was essential.
Without exception, everyone working on the game is a keen gamer and has been since childhood. I'd hate to calculate the number of years - make that decades - of game-playing experience that the team has in total. This vast experience and love of games has informed our development of Thrillville, so you'll find every gameplay nuance you'd expect to find in such classic genres as Thrillville's driving games and first-person shooters.
