Jeff Vogel: It's a lot of work. We're getting pretty tired. Still, we saw the opportunity for a good, solid business push, and we took it. The main thing that makes it possible is that Avernum 3 is a rewrite of Exile 3: Ruined World, not a whole new game. Each day, I write out specs for a town or dungeon or outdoor section. Then one employee spends the day porting the area to the new system and coding it and getting it running. Then I come back and polish it, add new special encounters and missions, and so in. In the meantime, Employee 3 puts together Geneforge areas according to a layout I sketch on graph paper. I spend the rest of my time assembling Geneforge. Add in my working on weekends, and it all comes together.
