They indie developers create these soundtracks that I really care about. When you think of Limbo and Brothers, you’re really following a story and this mood, more so than you would sometimes with a film because you’re spending more time in the world. What are some of your favorite indie games?īraid, Limbo, Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons. It’s great to see the stories and characters and new gameplay that comes from indie game developers putting their art out there and doing it in a format that’s kind of small. Indie games have really blossomed and really found a place where artists and creators can come together, just like there are different outlets for filmmakers to get on now with YouTube channels and Netflix and the Internet.

Some of my favorite games that I’ve ever played are indie games that you find on Xbox Marketplace or PlayStation Store and download them. What role do you see indie game developers playing in the industry today? I know that Vognaut is the bad guy and he’s centered around Doug’s crazy drawings, which I think are great. I don’t know the entire story of the game at all. It’s almost what he’s doing here, but in a loving way. But there is a little of that stuff like when you’re dicking around with your brothers and giving them crap. Like how much hatred there is? (Joking.) Probably not. Would fans be able to learn things about your relationship with your brothers by playing this video game? Doug is friends with both me and my older two brothers, so he was able to see a lot of our own interactions with each other and the kind of relationship that we have. There’s also this evil brother relationship, which I relate to and really respond to in a lot of the work that I do. You realize Vognaut is a bad guy in the story and I typically don’t play villains, so it was fun for me to play that. Working on this game has been fun, but it’s such a lengthy process in animating and programming and everything. And it was good getting out there and putting my voice or face or whatever behind someone who’s trying to do something different and something new.Ĭan you talk about your character Vognaut and what it was like to bring him to life? The fact that it’s stop motion animation is great. When he came and asked me to do the game - I’ve been doing a lot more voice work recently and I play video games - but I really liked the concept. Jon Heder: Doug TenNapel is a friend of mine and he’s super talented.
