We talk to the producer of The Conduit about lessons learned from that game, as well as what we can expect from their upcoming games.
High Voltage Software is a game developer located in Hoffman Estates, Illinois, one of the few developers left near Chicago. Initially developing licensed games, the company has grown tremendously over the past few years to well over 100 employees. Their parking lot has overflowed into surrounding lots. High Voltage’s labyrinthine office hides groups of talented artists, designers, programmers, and testers. The company even has its own motion capture studio, Red Eye Studio, located nearby. The Conduit, an acclaimed first-person shooter for the Wii, was their first completely independent design. We sat down with Joshua Olsen, producer of The Conduit, to talk about lessons learned from the development of that game. Later, we chat about their upcoming games, Tournament of Legends and The Grinder.
