Hey, hey, hey, hey!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

This is a mariachi loco.

Hello there and welcome to a video gamer chat of sorts with me, Cullamahearn.

And recently I had the opportunity to chat with one Graham Smith,

who is the co-founder of Drink-Box Studios. Drink-box Studios, of course, the developer of Guacamale

and the upcoming Guacamale 2. And I started off by asking Graham why. Why now? Because

when 2018 rolls around, it'll be five years between the release of the first

game and the second. I personally thought that a sequel was sort of pie in the sky type stuff.

So, why? Yeah, I know a lot of people have had that reaction because, you know, the first game does wrap up in a,

in a satisfying way.

We don't have like a cliffhanger ending or anything like that.

So it is like a kind of a standalone package.

But I can tell you, like even right after shipping Guacamile, we've always had a lot of ideas

for what could go into a sequel.

And while, you know, at the end of that project well we kind of went right into we did we did the updated version for

for the newer consoles when they launched the super turbo championship edition so you know we were working on

guacamole for about three years total um to get all of those additions out. First,

two years for the first one and then another year for the Super Turbo Championship Edition.

And then by the end of that, we were kind of, you know, tired of working on Guacamile. We needed

to do something different and we took a break from platformers and we made Severed, which

took us a few years to wrap up.
