Free Press, which means more people are gonna be like, woah, whats this Fortress Forever thing? They will try it, see how awesome it is, and we will get more people to kill!

RPS: And this led to the Valve Peggle?

RW: Yeah, Eric’s local, so that was cool. We could have those guys come around and work on the site for a while, and have some of our artists help. That was a classic example of [he chuckles], there’s no real strategic business decisions going on. We want more Peggle! You can GIVE us more Peggle! Put that in the box, how does that sound?

RPS: Did you have any inkling of this when PopCap went onto Steam?

CB: Well, we all started by playing Insaniquarium.

RW: And we’ve got at least one guy who claimed to be the world’s best Bookworm player. Just very matter-of-fact. He can tell you the top-scoring words he’s ever done. I guess there’s some fixed order in which the original Bookworm dropped its letters, and he knows the exact order of every letter that’s going to arrive, so he can start planning his moves. He took it to the ridiculous level. So we were all really excited about Bookworm Adventures.

RPS: I love Bookworm Adventures. I prefer it to Peggle.

RW: Well… Well, I think you’re insane.

CB: I’m going to walk out the interview now.

RW: My wife likes Bookworm Adventures. But she doesn’t like Peggle, for some reason. So that’s why we had to get divorced… [laughs]. I’m a dead man.

Awesome.

We asked them if they could hold off until we release the first patch. It'd be better timing that way, but if it ends up earlier -- oh well

No shit, they were serious? Wow, awesome.

KubeDawg · 11-08-2007, 05:48 PM

This needs to be bumped! The patch has been released, no word on this happening yet!

StatisticZ · 11-08-2007, 08:52 PM

So by adding it to Steam, does that mean they're going to allow you guys to use their update system? And market the game on Steam? Well, not market but you know show off, and attempt to get an even larger player base.

This is talking about a steam news post.

is valve ever on time...?

shadow · 11-09-2007, 04:06 AM

I would think the ideal time for an update would be just prior to thanksgiving or winter break, to catch the american and college crowds at a good time respectively.

That's a great idea!

GhOsT · 11-09-2007, 12:42 PM

You mean the time when they are away from their computers that can actually play the game?

shadow · 11-09-2007, 08:26 PM

In any case I don't think it would be wise to advertise right around finals time.
