Friends of Offworld Rock, Paper, Shotgun have landed the ultimate exclusive interview with developer Videlectrix, the team behind Hallrunner, STRONGBADZONE, Trogdor, and our recently noted Dangeresque Roomisode 1: Behind the Dangerdesque.

RPS has previously covered the growing rift between the company and publisher Telltale, and the interview delves into the issue further:

RPS: Now of course the disagreement with Telltale has become public, with the release of the first of your Roomisodes. Telltale are distancing themselves from you, and going ahead with the release of Episode 5 despite this all. Could you explain what led up to the current situation?

‘TRIX: It’s very simple, actually. Telltale claims they invented the ’sode’ when they know good and well Videlectrix did decades ago. Are they just ignoring our ‘Cartridgisodes’ or forgetting that we pioneered the ‘LCD Handheldisode?’ Roomisodes were just a natural extension of our earlier innovations. And we will continue to innovashe despite whatever fanciful, pranciful claims Telltale makes.
