 		Interaction with the Art of the Heist Game at E3
So this may be trout, but yesterday in the chat room #syzygy, people were unaware of the reference made to PPC in another game, the one called Art of the Heist.

A character in that game called Virgil Tatum is a brilliant game designer, who appeared at E3 and gave a couple of interviews. He also stopped by the Mind Candy booth.

He posted about his visit with Sente's PMs in his on-site blog, called "Rant and Roll" right here . Some of the faces in the photo may seem familiar. I think that is his only blog post with a photo included.

PS. You will like his background. Even more fun is the one on some hidden pages we found, look for the guy with the flashlight, who is my favorite.

try here If you need the password the name is my and the password is wife. The video may be surprising, as an explanation, it is of his wife who was killed by a hit and run driver.

 		Virgil is very very

creepy

Yes.

It was nice to see Virgil mention PC in his blog as it was very clear to me when I met them that the Mind Candy crowd were following Heist to a certain extent.

I would have to say it's about the only truely nice thing Virgil has done. Smile

 		Virgil's Number 1 fan
HHM: No smackdown on Virgil when I am here.
He has helped out Nisha a few times as I recall.

And, his intelligent writing makes Sente look... well, let me just say that I don't think Virgil would have lost the cube... though, if he were really playing PPC I think he would have a good chance of finding the damn thing.

----
I posted the Naoko page solely because the nighttime background was fun to compare to the daytime one.
A couple of more pages if that one is too disturbing can be found:
here

User: potato
Pass: eaters

or

here
User: memory
Pass: effect

If you want to see puzzles that Virgil makes try:

this one which we have solved

(you might need: user: potato password: eaters to access it)

or

this one which we haven't.

----
But, the main point is how sweet and fun it is when games refer to each other. A fun bit of live interaction between games through the Puppet Master/characters. It's all good.
