MGIF S4 E4: Ricky Haggett Making Games Is Fun This episode of Making Games Is Fun is with Ricky Haggett! Ricky, previously of Honeyslug, now heads up Hollow Ponds with his wife and is working on a currently unannounced title. I talked to Ricky about how Hohokum came about from a variety of prototypes, and his process of taking various game ideas to fruition, and the little “accidents” that occur along the way. He also talks of making games for old mobile phones and for the mighty Amiga back in the day. Ricky also reveals how Wilmot’s Warehouse started life as what he considered to be a mad idea by his colleague Dick Hogg, as well as getting into a playfight with Keita Takahashi, creator of Katamari Damacy, as they tested the game they made together, Tenya Wanya Teens.
