Hi Chris, Another great Blog, you just keep them coming, and I’ll keep watching. Because of the time difference, here in Australia I get to see them first on Saturday morning, pretty awesome eh.

Greeting and salutations Chris and Co.
I really enjoy your blog and have been following from day one. Its nice to see what happens “under the hood” of a game developer.
I am a student (3d animation) who wants to be a part of the game industry, which I am sure is the case of fair part of your blog followers.
I would therefor be interested in seeing, what some of the junior members of the staff is doing. Hear their story. How they blew your mind and got their foot in the door, and maybe even see some of their portfolio.
Keep up the good work !
Kind regards Brian

Thx again for this weekly video blog. As allways, it’s fun and entertaining. I think that’s probably the best way to communicate with customers/fans about what’s going on. Think many other studios should do the same …. Blzzard would get well inspired to do the same with Diablo 3 instead of posting the same boring report battles from starcraft2 ….
Well Done Chris, Well done GPG employees, it makes me feel even more confident about GPG future sucess.
Can’t wait to play K&C

Nice outro, fire and dragon ‘re looking decent.
Will this be a pc only game or will it come to consoles to? To early to state probably.

The “Grey Boxing” thing makes me realize how many different development stages it takes to make a game. I had no clue it involved so many steps.
Awesome video blog again, smoking and crispy. Well done Chris! Can’t wait for the next one.

This is all extremely cool to see the game development process from the actual game developer’s perspective. I’ve been studying a bunch of this stuff, and have actually done a lot of this kind of game design in general. Characters, levels, effects, pretty much I’ve done a little bit of it all. Very cool to see what it would be like in the biz.

I got questions hopefully you got answers. But it’s not about kings and castles, it’s about SupCom 2. Are you planning to release DLC or an expansion for SupCom 2? And is there any legal way to get the 6 preorder maps?
btw videoblogs are nice.

Again, lookin’ good! Gotta love particle systems. I’ve found them quite enjoyable to create, as they are reasonably simple yet get some nice looking visuals up quickly.

Great job! Fun and interesting to follow! GPG is an awesome bunch!
Hey fellow blog followers, don’t you think GPG is best when working without a publisher’s order? We need to figure out a way they can continue working on K&C without a publisher’s leash.
What do you think?

It`s cool, that you have such a skilled team up there, developing K&C 
Best regards!
