Sal struggles with depression and frequent night terrors. Chug would sound a little like Heffer from Rocko’s Modern Life.ĭo any of the main characters have mental issues? Larry would sound a little like Keanu Reeves from Bill and Ted but not as ditzy. Sal has a calm, raspy voice that’s slightly muffled by the prosthetic. I can imagine his voice in my head but I’m not sure I have a good person in mind. If this is referring to when I said Sal would sound like Gilbert Gottfried, that was just a joke. You once said on Twitter whose voice you imagine Sal having. He’s been through so much pain in his life but still has a positive outlook and a kindness towards others. I think he’s the most interesting because there’s a lot of mystery surrounding him but he’s also relatable and admirable. Who’s your favourite character in the game? Which one do you consider most successful and interesting? I always liked writing as well and had played with the idea of writing a novel. Then in high school, when I started playing guitar and got into bands, I wanted to be a rockstar. I think for a short time I wanted to work on cartoons. When I was young, I didn’t really know what I wanted to do with my life. I would love to come visit Russia! I hope someday in the future I can make that happen. Have you ever thought about coming to Russia to meet with your fans? I probably won’t stop making games until I die. Ideas come to me all the time but I only write them down if they really strike a chord with me. Actually working on the game helped pull me out of some of the harder moments.ĭo you have any plans for future games besides Sally Face? I’m too stubborn and too driven to give up.

Despite those struggles, I never gave up. I was hit with a lot of depression because of that. But I also went through a lot of personal shit during the development of the first two episodes. I think that’s normal while working on any project as long and demanding as building a game. Yeah, there were times when I would feel like giving up. Were there any instances when you felt like giving up on your work, like an artist’s block? Otherwise maybe I’ll add it to the game and release it along with episode 5. It would be cool to do a physical release but that can be expensive, so it would depend on how well the game does.

I have been thinking about doing a sort of compendium book where I can add little details that don’t make it into the full game, along with sketches and artwork. If that changed in the future, I would be open to the idea if there was enough demand for it.ĭo you plan to release any kind of sketchbook for your game, dedicated to character/locations creation? I just don’t have the resources to pull it off. I doubt that I would ever do an animated film. I wasn’t expecting it at first, so I was surprised and happy that people were connecting with Sally Face that much.ĭo you plan to go along with the idea of making an animated film after you’re done with the game? If not, why?

I think what surprised me the most were the first few fan arts that started popping up. I love seeing the cool fan art from all over. I don’t think I could pick a most exotic country, there are too many places that are exotic to me. I think Russia has the biggest community right now but the US has the most game sales. Which country has the biggest SF community? Which one is the most… exotic? Which country’s art and fanfiction surprised you most? If I can keep doing that then I will be happy. That’s okay though, my goal is only to do what I love and share it with all of you.

And I would say I’m still pretty far from famous. I never had the feeling of waking up famous, it’s been a long and difficult road to get to where I am now. It took a few months to catch on but once the bigger YouTubers starting playing it, then the audience started to grow. The community around Sally Face is full of really great people. How did the gaming community accept the game? Have you ever felt like you woke up famous?

You can watch its recorded version right here.įor your convenience we also made a written version of the interview. After asking the “pre-made” questions we also took some from the viewer chat during the podcast. And we managed to arrange an online interview with him. This summer we’ve asked our VK subscribers to gather some questions they’d like to ask Sally Face’s developer, Steve Gabry.
