Unlike Danger Hot Stuff and the other CD-Roms like it, my program is a complete
multi-media work with research and a direction. Danger Hot Stuff was a great
display of different animated works, but after you have seen it a few times it
looses its appeal because there isn't any interaction with the viewer except
for them to watch and in some cases listen. For the most part it was like a
lot of the other discs out there, a collection of tallented shareware. The
advantage in that case, was that they get your name out there, for what was
probably a project that was done for another client or just for kicks. As
multi-media developers, or authors and artist, what is the value of a complete
peice, not unlike an enitire intereactive movie? Something thats entire
exsistance is for being sold to an CD-Rom owners. How much should we give up,
and how much should we make so that the projects are worth doing?
