Sure.
The interview itself was ok to me. No difficult to answer questions and he did not change my answers, just corrected some grammar (because english is a foreign language to me). But, I found it a bit too general. Its called a Valgards Fate interview and there was not much talk about the game itself. No questions about the story, the gameplay, the state of progress. I was expecting those questions. Anyway, I had fun answering the questions. Justananomaly is a nice and gentle guy.

Concerning the screenshots:
I sent him the screens after the interview. When I saw the interview on his site I recognized him using the old screens from my blog and I thought it would be a good idea to give him something to show the people that they did not see before.
The screens show the following ingame situations:
1. Loot screen. Whenever you killed a monster, broke a container (like barrels, urns or boxes) or open a chest (some need keys) you can loot the object. Every "lootable" game object has an inventory, which can be empty or hold gold, potions, magical runes, keys or weapons. Some weapons need e certain character level to be able equip them.
2. Just a random situation, but I shot a fireball before taking the screenshot. You can see it flying to the right. Fireballs are only one of the magical spells (but its the only one I finished yet). You can cast magic by equipping magical runes in the left hand (right hand is for weapons). The runes have limited charges, but are quite powerful. Runes need a certain level of intelligence to be used.
3. Game over

The skeleton got me. I just posted this screenshot to proof that the whole gameplay cycle works. Start a game, get experience, loot, raise in levels, distribute skillpoints (you gain 2 skillpoints per level and there are 4 skills, stamina, strength, agility and intelligence).

All in all the whole game engine itself works great. I am working on assets at the moment, thats why it is so quiet around Valgards Fate right now.
