Interview with Ring Runner: Flight of the Sages developer, Enrique Dryere

Ring Runner, an indie game, a space shooter and a personal favorite.
There are many space shooters, but believe me when i tell you Ring Runner is unique. not only it contains loads of skills and customization options, but it also combines a lot of game styles, from arena fight, to trench runs, to shoot em up, it have it all! You just CAN'T GET BORED WITH IT.
Ring Runners is a dream of two brothers who after playing a lot of games decided that they should create one containing everything they loved in games. They took a great risk with that; they were indie, inexperienced, just two guys (3 counting Enrique's talented wife, who draws wonderful art), and they mixed genres and game styles. As i said: A GREAT RISK. AND THANK THE GODS THEY DID!!!! Ring Runners is just right, the genres and styles mach perfectly in my opinion, and make it impossible to get bored playing the game.

When i bought the game i immediately knew i had to talk to this guys, and of course i tough they would never answer, but to my surprise they did answer just one day after i contacted them. Enrique is not only a talented developer, he is also a wonderful and humble person. HE THANKED ME for interviewing him, and when i asked him to send me some treats for you guys, he did't ask a single question, he just sent me a lot of artwork and images.
But enough talk, this is not a review, this is an interview. And you must be itching to read it so here it is:
