Show host and producer, Chris O'Regan chats to Tyrus Peace of Floating Island Games about the design and development of their first person platformer adventure game, Cloudbase Prime. Why is it so difficult to make a platformer that is has a first person view? Well it turns out all you needed to do is let players see the feet of the character they are controlling! OK there is a lot more to it than that, but the presence of feet in a player's view is a big step forward when it comes to first person platform game design. With this revelation, Floating Island Games set about creating Cloudbase Prime and this episode of The Sausage Factory reveals their story of how they did just that. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/sausage/TSF_Episode278.mp3   All music for Cloudbase Prime was composed and arranged by Matt Javanshir.
