I've decided to choose Knytt Stories as the focus of my final paper. As research, I have decided to learn more about the developer, his history with game development and some of the software he uses.
Nicklas Nygren, the creator, has done a few interviews talking about Knytt and Knytt Stories. On of the more informative seems to be for a French site (with english transcript) found here. He has done others as well, but they all more or less explain what he tries to accomplish in making his games, as well as what tools he uses and how he developed as an artist.
I looked into some video tutorials for the software he uses (Multimedia Fusion 2), but most explanations seem rather daunting. My exploration of process will likely focus on the specialized toolset he made for himself.
