I hope Frozen Utopia's games are burnable to CD to be played on real hardware because I'd rather not play them at all than to be stuck playing them on an emulator.

If they are to be CD, ISO releases would be great, rather than ISO+MP3 or some such thing.

Don't worry, we'll have ISO releases for the demos and full versions of our games, mainly because the games use CD audio tracks, but it's nice to play on real hardware too.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

Sweet!

Also let me know if you need any voice acting.  I have extremely limited acting skills and would be perfect for any game project.  You'd think I worked for Working Designs or something, I'm that bad!

Hey cool, old skool, WD-style voice actors rule! I don't think we need any for Mysterious Song, but you could definitely be a help for Neutopia III when we the voice acting parts are needed.

I certainly hope Neutopia III doesn't come out, as being the eternal pessimist that I am, I told Keranu I would actually get a Turbo if it was ever released. :?

Wait, we're for sure doing voice acting for Neutopia 3?  Cool!  So, maybe we'll be using my idea for the cinemas as well, that would rock :D  I'll say no more then that, because I don't think we want to give too much away at this time.

I don't know for sure, but I don't see why we wouldn't have it.

Be sure to have lots of "Working Designs-isms" in the game like characters making references to current events and pop culture (like the constant "Hans & Franz" talk in Popful Mail) and make fun of politics and do all of the things Victor Ireland would do to ruin improve the game tenfold!

Working Designs was awesome, the voice acting wasn't half bad in their games considering the time they were made.  IIn fact their later releases had some pretty decent voice acting work in them.

I loved WD's humerous, cheesy voice acting.

Here are a couple voices I recorded from Popful Mail to show how awesome Working Designs is:

- 144Khttp://pixelcraze.film-tech.net/reviews/Popfulvoice2.mp3
- 584K (Yeah.  The dialog is THAT awesome).

Yeah sounds like cartoon voice acting for a cartoony game.  If you went into Popful Mail expecting the video game equivalent of a Dostoevsky novel then I can see where you'd think that was lame, but since Popful Mail is basically a saturday morning cartoon caliber RPG that voice acting completely fits.

Sure, but did they have to steal their "humor" from Saturday Night Live?

This is a first, people actually defending Working Designs?  The world must be coming to an end, just like the Working Designs company did because they couldn't make enough money due to all of their burnt bridges.
