Whether you've got exclusive content per platform or previous accolades to lean on it seems there are multiple ways to get around or bend policy in general. This gave us some leeway when it comes to the parity stuff since we didn't know it existed until we'd already made plans for other platforms.Īnother thing is that when speaking with platform-holders almost everything is negotiable if you've got some sort of leverage. I think we're in a unique position with Octodad because we started working with Sony and PS4 about 3 months before the program was announced. Q 6) The wider gaming media have frequently criticised 'parity clause', but Octodad seems to contravene that to a fairly large degree - is the policy as rigid as some worry? How have you found dealing with in general? As far as leveling the playing field goes everything still comes down to having a good game that stands out because of its own merits. Many of the platform-holders will also help you out anywhere they can and that's doing good for the community. It's easier than ever to publish your own game on a console. Q 5) Would you agree that independent studios have a stronger voice than ever in the console gaming space? or do you guys think there's more work to do to on the part of Xbox/PS4 to level the playing field so to speak? Starting our studio has always been about maintaining all control over what we do to create weird/delightful games, and we're just where we want to be. We're getting to work on our next game which is something different from what we've done in the past, and self-funding it is our first choice. At this point the game has sold well enough that we're all full-time at Young Horses. We've talked to a few publishers in the past, but have yet to see a deal that would actually be in our best interests. \\Steam\\SteamApps\\common\\Octodad Dadliest Catch\\Octodad Dadliest Catch Original Soundtrack\\ (Right click Octodad Dadliest Catch in the Games list -> Local Files -> Browse Local Files).Q 4) Have you guys approached/been approached by big publishers for Octodad?

Octodad received enough attention that the team decided to run a Kickstarter, form the game studio Young Horses, and create a bigger, better, more polished game about Octodad. Despite everyone being convinced that the game was about a normal human dad, the game was a cult hit, gained critical acclaim, and was an Independent Games Festival Student Finalist in 2011. In Octo-ber 2010, a group of university students released the original Octodad into the world. In this sequel to the splash hit Octodad, our cephaloprotagonist has gotten himself in a bind between his wife’s mounting mistrust, and a disastrous trip to the local aquarium!

The player controls Octodad, a dapper octopus masquerading as a human, as he goes about his life. Octodad: Dadliest Catch is a game about destruction, deception, and fatherhood.
