The DeathSpanker Interviewed... twice! 27 Feb, 2008 / Comments: 5

By The Tingler


As Sven_Q45 helpfully pointed out on our forum, Ron Gilbert has a lovely new interview over at Inc Gamers, who I admit I'd never heard of before today. They talk about DeathSpank, Penny Arcade Adventures, and some game with pirates and monkeys in that I'd also never heard of.

This is probably my favourite question and answer:
How do you think storytelling has improved in gaming over the years?

It hasn’t.
Honest to a fault, that man. Check it out.

Update: And as Kroms just as helpfully pointed out, Eurogamer's got one too. Now them I have heard of.

    So since Ron is Hothead's Creative Director, are we to assume that Hothead is both the publisher and the developer of the game? I was under the assumption that Ron would kind of form his on pseudo-company (Angry Tomato or whatever?) once he had a publisher. I guess he's found a good team in his colleagues?

    About the actual interview, it's a shame he didn't promote some indie games like AVS or Insecticide...Good stuff though.

    Now there's an interview a history major could love.
