Plangman is a game that combines Hangman with a puzzle-platformer: avoid enemies and jump over pits to reach the letters you need to solve each level's puzzle! In this interview, developer Ehren von Lehe discusses whether Plangman's hero was inspired by Microsoft's Olympic decathlete or by Captain Goodnight; how the game evolved across nearly seven years of development; how playtesting helped von Lehe realize that games are no longer as hard as they were in his youth; why the developer offers a walkthrough of his own game; and why the game was released on itch.io instead of Steam.
