Gonner's unique artstyle born out of necessity

We sat down with Mattias "Ditto" Dittrich to talk about his upcoming platformer shooter with roguelike elements called Gonner.

"Gonner is a 2D platformer shooter with some roguelike elements to it," says Dittrich. "You have all the randomised levels, you can pick up upgrades in forms of new heads and guns and new abilities that you find in the levels."

Gonner, much like Ditto's previous projects has a very distinct visual style.

"I do both the programming and the drawing or the animation," says Dittrich. "And so to be able to actually get stuff done without working on this thing for 10 years I try to use the simplest style that I can. I draw as sloppily as I can, but I still want to make that as interesting as I can."

Gonner is planned for release on PC later this year, with possibilities of further platforms (consoles we presume).
