Renegade Kid's DS FPS Moon is one of the most anticipated projects on the handheld this year. Check out the source for the full interview with director Jools Watsham, and take in some new screenshots for the game.

With nothing on the radar for several months, we're a bit concerned about the state of DS of gaming. Sure there are lots of casual thingies popping out over the summer but, other than Final Fantasy sequels, what's a DS gamer to do past August? Well, our money's on Moon, the follow-up FPS to last year's impressive Dementium. Will it be a success? No telling just yet, but developer Renegade Kid has proven its technical ability so we're leaning towards the "probably" side.

We recently had an email chat with Renegade Kid owner/creative director Jools Watsham about Moon, DS development and what might be next for the boundary-pushing team.



GamesRadar: Dementium was one of the most technically impressive DS games of 2007. What did you learn from building that title, and how did you apply that to Moon's development?

Jools Watsham: Thank you for your kind words. We learned that the DS is a relatively powerful console, capable of producing much more than we had originally imagined. Having developed the framework of a 3D title with Dementium, we have a great foundation to build upon with Moon. We have a better understanding of the DS, and as such some new tricks to produce results that would otherwise not be possible without our exploration of the system and iteration of ideas.
