Lorne Lanning Talks About Oddworld's Future, Reaching New Fans Through Digital Distribution, Citizen Siege, and More
One of the most wonderfully imaginative developers in the business, Oddworld Inhabitants (Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee, Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath) has been a little quiet for the last few years. Its recent PSN releases indicate that the company is ready to make a move. Oddworld looks poised to shake things up in the near future, doing it with its trademark creativity and independence (naturally!). I recently caught up with company co-founder Lorne Lanning to talk about what's going on with the Oddworld, what the PSN releases mean to him, social gaming, being a creative developer in a harsh economic climate, the status of Citizen Siege, working with Electronic Arts, and more. While he didn't say anything outright, it's pretty clear where he thinks the gaming business is going and how he thinks Oddworld should approach it.
