Just got the call, in about two weeks I'll be working over at Microsoft. What does this mean for LA? Not much, I wont be able to do an entire dungeon in one day (well... maybe on the weekends) updates will be a little slower but they should be better then they were last year.
I need to finish up some stuff in regards to my Metroid Online commission which will take a few days, after that I'll see what I can do about spamming updates til I start work.
Have a cold one on me.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q.
Are you planning to do the Oracle games sometime after Awakening?
A.
Short answer, No.
Long answer, I would love to but there are just too many problems involved with making them that I don't want to attempt to solve.
1. The Overworld(s)
One of the biggest problems is the Overworlds. There are seven (7) of them! Labrynna Present, Labrynna Past, Holodrum Spring, Holodrum Summer, Holodrum Fall, Holodrum Winter, and Subrosia. Look how long it took me to make one overworld, then multiply that by 7! And then theres the fact that I would have to cut up each area of Holodrum just so I can have peices of each season visible at the same time.
Possible Sollution: I would need a much bigger team of modelers and programmers.
2. The Linked game.
I have no idea how the password system works.
Possible Sollution: Find out how the password system works.
3. The Caves.
While working on Link's Awakening, I have the benefit of being able to use this super awesome map which includeds all the dungeons and caves, I just click on an entrance on the overworld and it takes me to the interior. I don't have that with OoA/S, I have maps of the overworlds and the dungeons, but nothing on the caves.
Possible Sollution: Find a way to rip all the caves and interiors from both games.
Q.
When will the game be released?
A.
Hopefully sometime late 09 - early 010, but I don't have a good track record with ETA's

Congratulations mate!
Congratulations. I don't know if I used this name before, but I've followed your work since you made that thread in /v/, and it's great to see you have gone this far. Freakin' Microsoft, that's a big one.
Once again, congratulations, and keep up the excellent work. Can't wait for the finished project.
good for you! What are you going to be doing for them?
awesome, what will you be doing for microsoft?
Congrats!
w00t indeed. Congratulations on that and I hope it goes well!
Congratulations :D
What position will you be working over there?
Thank you every one, great to know I've been able to keep at least some people entertained since the beginning.
As for those wonder what I'll be doing, I will be working on Natal.
I don't really want to say much more then that, I'm already trying to evade the Nintendo lawyers, I don't want the Microsoft lawyers to try and get in on the action.
