    Here are today's "Jefferson" project forum highlights. Please take into account that these are only single parts of various threads and should not be taken out of context.

    J.E. Sawyer, Lead Designer

    Engine Name: Naming engines, like games, really sucks. Unless you have one autocratic figure making the decision -- then it either rules or sucks based on that one individual. You can't get a group of even five or six people to all like the same name. They're basically all like Reservoir Dogs wanting to be Mr. Black. They all think that their name is the best and usually dislike all the other names put forward.

    I did suggest Mystery Engine, though.

    Though you can still tell the Jefferson engine (which is, even as I type this, going through the process of name selection) is a 3D engine, I've had many people walk into the office and sincerely ask me, "Oh, hey, is this [2D game name]?" It really is very nice.
