Hello Community Crew!

The Community is a great place to get to know each other, but what about knowing the people behind the magic of the Kingdom?
We thought it would be a great idea to share some of the personalities from behind the scenes and meet fantastic Kingsters!  

These are the minds that create all this delicious universe: From Game Artists, Level Designers, Content Specialists, Game Producers and Customer Support Agents - all of them are included, so come and meet the team.

This week, we sat down with @SenseiK, Developer and @WillyFog Artist for Diamond Diaries and here is what we got to know! 

Say hi to @SenseiK

"Hi my dear players, 

I'm a developer in Diamond Diaries Saga, I'm in charge of give life to all the crazy things that game designer asks to give you your magic.

Every link that you create, every diamond that you collect, every booster that you craft... every bug that you find... comes from several lines of code that I wrote with the others developer in the team.
Be patient with us please."

I will never eat a pizza with pineapple... and it's not funny! And that's not 3 things!

Legend of Solgard.

A color bomb... I like multiple explosions!

Pizza (without pineapple!*)... I'm Italian, what else?

. Is there something you would like to tell our players?

"Please don't stop playing... (I'm having fun working on the game and I need a job 😋)"

Say hi to @WillyFog ;

Hi everyone! 

I'm a Senior UI Artist on Diamond Diaries Saga!

I work closely with the Game Designers and Developers to give you the best experiences with our new features. My focus is to make our features easy to understand, make them feel and look good. I also try to play the player's advocate and ensure that we're giving you all the information you need. I work hard in avoiding any confusion and frustration when you're playing. Some of the features I've worked on are the On Fire, the Jeweler's Club and the (coming soon) Jewelers Trial.

. Tell us 3 funny things about yourself

. I am terrible with liquids. I'm constantly spilling coffee, water or anything else! I can't help it!

. I always put honey in my coffee. I like the sugary taste.

. Funny or terrible, depending on who you ask: I like pizza with pineapple 😜

. If you were a King game, which one would you be?

Farm Heroes, it was my very first King game.

. If you were a candy?

Gummy Bear for sure!

. If you were a game character?

The Yeti, he's always smiling and fun, someone you'd like to hang out with.

. If you were a video game?

One of the biggest classic: Tetris! 

. What's your favourite food?

Vietnamese food.

. Is there something you would like to tell our players?

"Thank you for playing our game and being so loyal. I hope that you'll enjoy all the new features and content we'll make for you!"

Hi everyone!

It's great to meet you here @Lim @Lucas_Yan_Maia @QueenMia, thanks a lot for all your support!

This is what happens when @SenseiK sees that I've ordered pineapple pizza...   



What do you think of pineapple pizza, yes or no? I actually like it  (sorry @SenseiK)

Haha...! Yes! I like pizza too! @WillyFog 😄
You made me laugh! (LOL) 😂

Hi @SenseiK and @WillyFog welcome to our community!  If QueenRaffie didn't mention in another message that you guys were here I never would have known that both of you were interviewed.  It's really nice to meet both of you and even though I never tried pizza with pineapple I know that I never will.  The office where I used to work sometimes ordered a pie with ham and pineapple on it.  Gross!  I like pineapple but never on a pie!

I will be totally honest with both of you here.  I have been playing the game ever since it was released and I know for a fact that @Lim has to be at the top but I don't think I'll ever get there.  I am only at level 541.  I don't even know how many levels have been released.  I am sure that LIm can tell me that.  I am finding that even though I really enjoy playing the game that I stopped playing it daily because I am always close to the end but never clear those levels.  So the only way that I can play the game now is to hold it off for a few days and then Charlie welcomes me back giving me extra moves for the days that I missed.  That is a really neat feature.  I have had up to 9 extra moves at one point.  But I know that is not how the game was intended to be played.  Besides adding new features that you mentioned above, do you have any intentions of adding a daily bonus?  I could really use the help of those boosters.

On another note, I am starting to get more involved with helping QueenRaffie do contests for the players.  We have a contest going on at the moment and you can see it here.  Yesterday I was on Google looking for information and history on diamonds and I found a couple of really good videos that I will be posting in the contest today. 

And that's about it for me right now.  @Lim can you please tag me whenever something important like this appears in our community here?  Thanks!

SenseiK

Hi @Elsa, you have my respect because you know that there are things that are bad even if you didn't try them... like pizza with pineapple.
There are many ideas that we are evaluating in the studio and we are always listening to our players, I'm sure that you will find a new feature that can help you and that you will enjoy soon.
Have a sassy day!

Lim

Oh! Do you mean you want to see new features such daily bonus and other something news? @Elsa 🤔

Hmm..! Maybe it's not yet! These features have City Challenge, Mystery Chests, Collect the diamonds from Bernadetta's mission and Peter content on this game. But I also trust your wishing daily bonuses. Maybe Daily Bonus will be released after level 1500+ or so. (I am really NOT sure) 🙁

Yes! Just like @SenseiK said. 😉 These new features are really helpful to us. 

New levels will be released every two Thursday currently right here. There are 965 levels currently but new levels will be released soon on today. (That's means there are 980 levels currently) 

You are also amazing Diamond Diaries Hunter! 👍 I know you want to use boosters to pass tricky levels as well, Peter will help you to add boosters on next new levels but you don't lose level. (Well I just asking you know how to pass levels easily.) 😉

So if another this game's contest will be back on Diamond Diaries Community, can I mentioned you to join this game's contest for winning gold bars? Please let me know. Thank you. 😊
Have a King weekend! 👑

HI @SenseiK I was just searching on Google for information on the Russian dolls and then I got curious and had to come here to ask you this question.  How did the idea of using the Russian dolls develop in this game?

Lucas_Yan_Maia

hey @SenseiK and @WillyFog 👋😁
I have 2 questions for you, these questions are cool😉:
1- How did you come up with the idea of ​​creating Diamond diaries saga and its characters🤨??
2- would have any chance of the contents of painting postcards back🖌🏞??
I thought of several questions but not deciding to put them all here😅
