My restoration of #PrinceOfPersia's artwork by Katsuya Terada used on the cover of the #SuperFamicom and #SuperNintendo (PAL) releases. This is a v2 of my previous work adding missing bits at the top/bottom using different sources, applying the usual upscale/clean/retouch combo.

Every now and again I reflect on our Charlotte's Web GBA game we produced at Backbone. It was an action platform game that had Wilbur leaping around on platforms. We referred to it internally as "Pig of Persia," in honor of Prince of Persia, the game we absurdly based it on.

Remedy management is encouraging its creative teams to learn more about the financials of game dev, to help plan games that are achievable

CEO Tero Virtala says it's working and is "one of the reasons why our projects have been progressing better during the last year”

Much more in the piece...
NEW: Remedy's next big game, Control 2, will be developed with a smaller budget than Alan Wake II

It's part of a refined approach at Remedy, as the studio learns from some recent harsh lessons

Remedy's CEO tells me: "We are moving from surviving to succeeding.”

Remedy's next big game is being made for less money, but can still be great, CEO says
The head of the studio behind Alan Wake and Control talks to Game File about Remedy's survival, a key cancellation, and getting game devs to think more about game business (but not too much!)
