Other revelations from the game’s creative director, Warren Spector: Disney realized that past Mickey games have been terrible, and that the star needs a redo, Mickey’s friends appear in robot form, the game is a mix of action and RPGs involving paint and paint thinner, and the game world changes based on how you play.
