Spotlight: Tammy Coron (Author) Interview and AMA!

Hi, Aston.

I’m glad you enjoyed this spotlight. To answer your questions:

I always thought UE was the one to go with - is there any specific reason why you prefer Unity?

To be honest, I don’t really have a preference. I suppose it depends on the project and what resources are needed to complete it. I’ve been using Unity longer, so I tend to work faster and have more goodies. :]

What’s your favourite game? (WoW? :lol:)

WoW is my current favorite game, but I tend to play a lot of games—just not at the same time. My all-time favorite game, however, is any of the Sierra games. Roberta and Ken Williams, for the win.

Have you played The Last of Us (episodes 1 and 2) If not why not!?

Yes. I am currently playing The Last of Us, Part I (when I’m not playing WoW, of course). So far, I like it. I also really like the HBO series.

What do you think of VR gaming?

I’ve had a few VR rigs—and still do. I’ve also created a handful of VR experiences and edited some VR-related content (AR stuff, too). Overall, I like the tech, but I wouldn’t say VR games are my favorite games to play. I’m not a huge fan of the current headsets. Probably because I wear glasses and hate to take off my hat. :rofl:

What’s your favourite game you’ve made or what’s the game you want to make next!?

I really like Gloop Drop: ‎Gloop Drop on the App Store. It reminds me of the older games I played when I was growing up. I’ve been working on a new game… well, it’s more like my own “universe.” I’ve created a cast of characters and plan to make a few games based on these characters, including a card game. I’m having a lot of fun with that one!

Speaking about all these games I reckon we need a dedicated gaming section (for discussing games we play) :024:

Yes, absolutely.
