Interesting tidbits from the web, best freeware list and other news

After creating the excellent games L’Amerzone, Syberia 1 and 2 for Microïds, Benoît Sokal has created his own video game production company called White Birds Productions with two colleagues. Their first project is a new adventure game called The Lost Paradise. The game play seems similar to Syberia, with lush pre-rendered 3-D backgrounds and nicely animated 3-D characters with a point-and-click interface. There is no release date set for this project yet. For the beginning of the new year, a series of wallpaper calendars have been posted on their web site on the news page. These are really nice renders with sketches of the characters and locations of the game. A nice way to decorate your desktop.
