Dan Koppel Talks About His "Kick-Ass" Game

GameZone: By now you’ve likely seen the trailers for Kick-Ass, a new kind of superhero movie. It’s "new" because it features a character who decides to become a superhero even though he does not possess any super powers. Crazy? He just might be. But the story could make for a fun and comedic addition to a genre that’s overrun with clones.

Dan Koppel, Lead Designer at Frozen Codebase, hopes to bring that same level of fun to the Kick-Ass game, which is due on the iPhone and PSN on April 15. "Kick-Ass is a fast, action-packed, entertaining game, which keeps close to the movie director’s (Matthew Vaughn) vision," he says. "Included in the game are the original art comic screens from the creators of the Kick-Ass comic book, Mark Millar and John Romita Jr. We thought this would be a fun way to convey the superhero story line to the gamers.
