The Joystiq Indie Pitch: Anna
Indie developers are the starving artists of the video-game world, often brilliant and innovative, but also misunderstood, underfunded and more prone to writing free-form poetry on their LiveJournals. We believe they deserve a wider audience with the Joystiq Indie Pitch: This week, Dreampainters talks ancient Italian legend, modern murder and the beauty of point-and-click adventure games with its new PC release, Anna. What’s your game called and what’s it about?
The game is called Anna and is a point-and-click graphic adventure about a “sort of haunted” sawmill.
What inspired you to make Anna?
The main inspiration came from a real-life old sawmill in Valle D’Aosta, an all-mountain region in Italy (to be very precise, in Val D’Ayas). It is an ancient and beautiful place, with some legends about ghosts and hauting around it. We mixed all this with a set of local legends and personal stuff. This game is actually a true homage to Val D’Ayas and its heritage.Gallery: AnnaContinue reading The Joystiq Indie Pitch: AnnaThe Joystiq Indie Pitch: Anna originally appeared on Joystiq on Sun, 30 Sep 2012 21:00:00 EST.
