Brett Caird, co-founder of 5th Cell, discusses Drawn to Life, Lock’s Quest, and future projects.

In a recent interview with Vooks, 5th Cell co-founder and game designer Brett Caird provided insight to the development processes of the company, future projects, and past projects, including the recently released Lock's Quest.

According to Caird, while developing Drawn to Life they "learned an immense amount about the DS platform" and were able to create the "engine underpinning Lock's Quest [which] is vastly improved." The team was also able to more effectively produce a challenging experience, one which "most fans" felt was lacking in Drawn to Life. Caird was proud of this achievement as it "was exactly what [he] set out to do."

Caird mentioned that if the team was to make a sequel to Lock's Quest, "Wifi multiplayer is the big [feature]" they would seek to include. "A city build mode where there [are] additional customisation options" also "might be fun to bring back for a sequel."

Finally, the interview revealed some unique insight into future projects. "We have 2 more DS titles currently in development" says Caird, "but other platforms are also on our radar … Wii is one of the front runners."

Does anyone know if 5th Cell has mentioned what either of these two DS titles might be?
