There's a new Kastagore Developer Diary (you'll have to click the link on their main page) online at the official site. This time, Heidi Rahbek, Concept Artist, talks about the ups and downs at developer Pentagang:
We have been working on Kastogore since october 2000. It has been 14 months of hard work, but when you are working with such great people, as those in the Pentagang team, it seems like such a joy to be in the gaming industry. The last 14 months has been very exciting, and it is a thrill to see how Kastogore, our dream, is turning into real graphics and very beautyful 3D models. We couldnīt have done this without our great employees, who has chosen to devote their sparetime to us and work for free, and we just canīt thank them enough for their devotion. I would also like to accentuate my husband, Gameproducer Michael Rahbek, who is a great leader. Michael was probably born with qualities of leadership, and at home he has always been the type, that is telling everybody what to do, when to do it and how to do it
Luckily I was born with a lot of patience;-) But Michaelīs qualities is very important in Pentagang, and I am sure that we couldnīt make it without a leader like him. Michael is also the love of my life and my best friend, and we complement eachother very well in Pentagang. When I am with him, I always feel like everything is possible, and I know that he feels the same way about me.
It is also very important that we have each other, whenever things donīt turn out the way we want. It is nice to have someone to talk with, whenever you get angry or sad. Like last week when Dennis Andersen, Concept Artist in Pentagang, decided to quit. He never talked about quitting before, so at first I was very surprised. Now I am just sad. We really had a lot of fun he and I, when we were making sketches for Kastogore. He is the 4th person the last 14 months, who has decided to leave Pentagang. I really hate when people quit, but it also makes me stronger everytime, and makes me even more sure, that I will never quit. Like I said before, I have a lot of patience, and I am also very stubborn, and we will make Kastogore, no doubt about that. Now that Dennis is no longer a part of Pentagang, I have to work twice as much, itīs going to be hard, but I will survive. |
