Joe Vithayathil meets with Chris Skaggs

Soma Games received a special feature today on Fox 12 Oregon, KPTV. "On the Go with Joe" host Joe Vithayathil visited the game developer to learn about how The Lost Legends of Redwall games are created, and got a behind-the-scenes look at character design, as well as sound and audio composing.

Vithayathil met with Chris Skaggs, who revealed "rigging and animating can take anywhere from a week to two months," among other tidbits.

However, a closer inspection of the footage shows a few things we haven't seen yet, which seem to involve Act II of The Lost Legends of Redwall: The Scout.

First off, viewers learn that Cheesethief is to be the main villain - and some concept artwork, in addition to 3D modeling, is shown.

Then, things get interesting. We have some questions.

WHO is the bird?!

And who is Glimber, "the mole with a mole"?!

How will these characters impact the story?

We can't wait to find out. Watch the full report below!

Update 6/6/19:

Vithayathil has responded to the Redwall Wiki's post on Twitter, stating "I have never seen one of my segments examined so thoroughly." (We appreciate that!)

He added "I can report that they told us that the owl was a character from the books..."

Our first guess is Captain Snow.
