Another Interview with Amanda Fitch
Casual Review has a short interview with Amanda Fitch, creator of the indie RPG Aveyond and the upcoming casual game, Grimm's Hatchery.

An excerpt:

CR: Why, in your opinion, aren’t there more casual or independent studios making fantasy adventure games out there? Compared to the number of match three games, it seems like RPG fans are left out in the cold.

Amanda: I think this is because role-playing games and adventure games are resource-intensive. It's easy to crank out a match three game in a couple of months because you don't need that many backgrounds, sprites (the little guys that run around on screen), and writing. Most of the work comes from coding. On the other hand, role-playing and adventure games can require hundreds of graphics and hundreds of pages of writing. Coding is a much smaller portion of the project.
