Thanks for sharing this for sure! I think that the piece was an excellent gesture towards the game. To me sharing art is to get a response. We don't get to pick the response, and that's part of the fun!
Your statement here was quite intriguing: "That's all marketing really is - your ability to tell a damn good story, a story that impels action." When I read it, I mentally replaced "marketing" with "making a video game." Do you think that is correct? That video games are just a medium for storytelling?
I look at Future Fighter that way, at least. The video game idea and the story came into my mind simultaneously. There really wasn't one without the other. The game was just a tactile way for me to give people the ability to interact with -- to feel -- that story. This is why I am writing a companion novel to go with the game. I hope that it will not only help gamers get into the world more but will hopefully open up other audiences to the game that may have not seen it otherwise. What do you think? Will it achieve that goal?
