Watching this interview makes me all the more confidant that he really 'gets' the Disney history that he's portraying in the game.

Very nice. I wonder if you can paint anything and everything or certain things. The one scene with the tree house platforms seems like the platform outline was there but only appeared once painted. I guess that's a trade off. Anything there in the game by designers can be removed and then reconstructed. If there is outline (meaning it used to be there before Mickey arrived) it can be rebuilt if you choose to. At least that's what it's looking like.

I see the Phantom Blot in that trailer. Although he calls the main enemy the Blot too. Connection?

I believe it's been confirmed that the main enemy is the phantom blot but he's become a lot more vicious since his comic appearances.

I'm no walking Disney encyclopaedia, so the more obscure callbacks have less impact on me, but I must give props to Warren and the guys at Junction Point for the attention to detail with all the references to old characters and locales. Personally, I'm hooked just by this amalgamation of 3 distinctly different gameplay styles and the paint/thinner element that links them all together.
