Dammit man. Now I have to add rats.
Why would there be mutated alligators on a space ship?

Huh ? Do you even have to ask ? Because they're awesome.
Make that mutated, bionic alligator-men with machetes. I'm on a roll.
And if you really want a lore-friendly answer mr.serious, they are escaped experiments from the biomechanical research division of the facility. And before you ask why would someone make such a creature, I say to you... why the hell not ?!
I'm definitely on a roll.
Something lurks in the sewers, a tentacle loving animal...

Fixed for accuracy. Though I admit the idea of the alligators on a space ship made me laugh.
Alligators on a space ship? That would be like taking snakes on a plane one step ahead!
I'm sold. Plz listen to your backers right now.

Just wanted to let you guys know that this little conversation inspired a pretty damned cool part in the game. I started it last night and just finished it up. Ill let you know WHICH part when the game is released....but yeah - my brother even asked if we are perhaps pushing the envelope a little with this scene... :D
No alligators though.

Notice he didn't say anything about constrictor snakes. Snakes on a Plane... IN SPACE!
Isn't he German?

Nein. Is there any particular reason you thought that (apart from the lack of humor)?
I'm confusing you with someone else with a similar avatar I believe.

Two of the most worthy 'name drops' in his portfolio are Konami and most recently Irrational with work on Bioshock Infinite. Honestly, while his portfolio did peak our interest it was more the sample writing from the short 'test' we gave him that really won us over.
I would love to expand to an additional 1 or 2 writers in the future (to get a different flavour and feel for the writing of different characters), but currently the work that we have received is top notch!
I am still doing all of the dialogue in the game and most of the heavily 'story specific' writing, with him taking up much of the additional 'world building'. Its a very new experience for me to open up elements of the game to someone else, but so far I'm quite pleased with the results!

I'd really be interested how you do the "character walks through water" model in the game - is it an entire different character model or do you use some shader that makes half the body "disappear"?

Its an entirely different model...you'll notice his hands move to holding above the water. In motion there are also some neat things like when he opens his inventory he takes it out differently and little splashes of water fall off of it.
The water costume only has 8 directions (normal one has 16), and has less frames because I don't have to swing 2 legs and arms back and forth - so it works out quite well! I think that the entire walking and idling batch has as many frames as 2 idling directions of the normal animations.
