Beyond Divinity Peek of the Week #28

The twenty-eighth installment of RPGVault’s “Peek of the Week” feature for the upcoming Divine Divinity sequel is now available. This time, Larian’s Yann Popo talks about story behind Imprunner, their free mini-game released earlier this month. An excerpt:

It was summertime and the sun was hitting very hard when Lar (Swen Vincke) started with the idea to create a Pacman-like game in the Divinity Universe, made with Director from Macromedia.

Well, my knowledge of Director and 3D engines was very bad, so I first had to start with learning and practicing so I would be able to create the game.

The first version of Imprunner (back then it was called Gnorfman) was very different from the final one. In that version, the player controlled a Gnorf, chased by Death Knights with disco lights.
