According to Wales Interactive executive producer and co-founder, Richard Pring, they are very excited to team up with new interactive production studios like Interflix to bring a high-end value interactive game with excellent production quality.
Pring also said that the game is created using the company's streamlined Interactive Scripting Tool, WIST. It enables writers to easily make playable, multi-directional scripts.
