My name is Kalle and I’ve been spending the last six months as an intern at Flamebait Games and I can tell you… while hacking this newsletter… that the Flamebait crew is a bunch of crazy wild cats and has no limits whatsoever... I’m telling you this because it needs to come out. Telling the truth is my new life goal. Prior to this, it wasn’t. I was a storyteller working with film, books and music - telling made-up stories all day long. Late in life, I found a way into the gaming industry and applied for an internship at Flamebait with the aim to expose them. To unveil their secrets. Because it has to be something, right? And wow… I mean WOW😲! First of all, as an intern, you expect to get simple tasks like making coffee, sorting papers, and maybe hosting an Instagram account for a week or two. Flamebait… made me work! I’ve been forced to make character designs, and quests and write narratives and dialogues from day one. I hosted game tests and analyzed the results. They are actually listening to what I have to say and are, at this very moment, implementing my designs into Passpartout 2. I am an intern, for christ's sake! Yes, I’ve been writing professionally for 20 years but still: an intern! Why don’t they want my coffee ☕️? I have broken the game several times - no punishment! I have on one occasion accidentally knocked a glass of water out of the lead artist's hand without retaliation. They are suspiciously kind. Or simply decent human beings🤔. Anyways - I guess you knew this already. What a lousy whistleblower I would be if I didn't disclose anything new. So I made a screen recording of me testing out our new tools🎨, making a self-portrait exclusively for you. I don't know what kind of trouble I will endure for unveiling this. If they choose the Flamebait way… they probably will offer me a job or something… [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28422089/9711a25f2a31805b7c95672c76f9b21fe6a30cf6.gif[/img] On a more serious note, I would like to say that I am super proud of being part of this game and I hope that my involvement added a nice flavour to Passpartout 2. You’ll soon be able to see for yourselves. Yours sincerely Kalle Carmback, Game Design intern.
