With the recent news that Whispering Willows would be coming out for more platforms than its initial PC-only release, we were excited for an opportunity to chat about the title. Here at Chalgyr's Game Room, we were big fans of this game when it first came out, scoring it a 9 out of 10. Today we are joined by David Logan of Night Light Interactive and Ralph Egas of Abstraction Games as they field some of our questions.
Chalgyr's Game Room:
When you set out to design Whispering Willows, was the intention to always make a horror-based game, or did that idea come along later?
David Logan:
I had always wanted to create a horror game from the start, but I wanted to handle it a bit differently than traditional jump scare horror. I love horror games, and the worlds created around them, but I've rarely felt like I could freely explore them and take in all their hidden secrets. With Whispering Willows, I wanted to create a horror game that put you on edge, but stripped away some of the constant "zombies around every corner."
Online video game retailer Physicality Games, in partnership with video game publishers Akupara Games and Mastiff, today announced the planned physical release of the 2D adventure-horror video game, "Whispering Willows" on the Nintendo Switch™ system and PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system from Sony.
I played this game and the character moves so damn slow I quit playing it. Frustrating with all the back tracking
Really? I thought that you could run in this game? Or perhaps I remember it wrong? :S

Ralph Egas from Abstraction Games discusses some of the challenges behind porting games to Nintendo Switch. His team ported ARK: Survival Evolved and released Shadowgate and Pitfall Planet on Nintendo Switch. Apparently, the Switch dev kits were causing WiFi interference before being moved upstairs.
