Shakespeare's Landlord Chat #10 - Dawn of Midnight

Wow! We've done 10 developers chats! Blair is feeling better, but Jean is still under the weather. We start off talking about Jodie Whittaker taking on the role of the 13th Doctor Who. Then we're only one week away from our #AskCharlaine episode where we will have Charlaine Harris herself to answer questions about Lily Bard, True Blood, and her new NBC series Midnight Texas. Speaking of which, next week is the network premiere of Midnight and we talk about all of the San Diego Comicon events that have been occurring throughout the week. Charlaine has been doing so many interviews about the new series. You can explore Midnight Texas, meet Charlaine, and even meet the cast. We're getting ready to watch on Monday night and perhaps even live tweet during the event. The character from our Lily Bard series is present in Midnight, Bobo Winthorp and we quickly mention how Charlaine has to "let go" of her works when they get adapted into other media. So far she seems to approve of our take on Shakespeare, but we can talk more about that next week. In other news, we have brought on Kate Edwards as a new advisor to One More Story Games. She was the former head of the International Game Developer's Association, and a big believer in what we're doing with StoryStylus and story focused games. We're so happy to have her join our advisory board of Megan Gaiser (former CEO of Her Interactive), Alex Peh (Head of Mobile development at PayPal Canada), and Sean Smillie (Head of Planet Fiction Studios and ex-EA employee with Blair). For our new screenshot, we show off an interior and exterior graphic of the Shakespeare Garden Apartments. We have built the world for the first two chapters of the game. Now we are hooking up the choices and characters in those initial story beats that will form the playable demo of our game. On the technical front, Blair is nearly finished building the spellchecking component for StoryStylus so we can consistently spell Hofstettler. Please join us NEXT WEEK when we talk Shakespeare's Landlord with author Charlaine Harris!
