Talking Pet Alien DS with Shin'en

Compared to the likes of Ratatouille or even Surf's Up (let alone The Simpsons and SpongeBob SquarePants), Pet Alien hardly ranks high on the list of top kids' cartoons.

Sadly the japes of Tommy Cadle and his five lighthouse-living aliens chums – Dinko, Gumpers, Swanky, Flip and Scruffy – have yet to become schoolground heroes.

So with that in mind, Pocket Gamer thought it only polite to ask how it's all going, and invited lead artist Martin Sauter, lead programmer Bernhard Wodok and designer Peter Weiss for a chat.
