When I first saw the title, I hoped this was a sequel to the GBA/DS game Scurge: Hive...then I realized they are spelled differently. Scurge: Hive was a great little retro action game that I'd heartily recommend. Scourge, however, looks like a generic mess. I'll be moving on now.
Great interview! At first I thought this was going to be the guy that made the Exile RPGs in the '90s but clearly I'm thinking of someone else lol. I haven't heard of Spiderweb before but I think I'll pick up the Humble Bundle. Why not? My HB pile of shame is already massive lol. I like how Jeff Vogel in the interview keeps saying that he writes games. I'm not sure the game systems will be quite my cup of tea but I do love a good story, and it sounds like that's a major focus for him.
I'm curious how many people Spiderweb employs. Is it just him with contracted freelance artists or does he have a dedicated little team (like two or three people) that he works with all the time?
In 1984 I was waiting patiently to be born. That was my older brother's year lol.
I love how the text in that Mario Bros. ad rhymes. It's like...why? Also, I guess that's the first precursor to Mario Is Missing 
These Breakout-style games can be a lot of fun but often they become tedious, I think. Or maybe I just have really bad aim lol. I played Kirby's Block Ball for the Game Boy last year and really enjoyed it. It was challenging while still being quite forgiving (it's a Kirby game, after all) and brought a bunch of cool ideas to the table to keep things interesting, like having paddles on the walls and ceiling sometimes and its boss battles. Good stuff.
No, I haven't seen it, though I think you mentioned it before. What channel/network is it running on? Even though Pac-Man is mostly a mouth, it seems weird that he would talk, but I guess they've been doing that (and giving him appendeges!) in various games for years now.
I wasn't familiar with the music from WoW or Skyrim. Well, or Earthworm Jim, I guess, which was actually a really cool song. And of course all the arrangements were new to me, so that made them exciting 
You should keep an eye on the tour dates page on their website. They do go to a lot of other countries, including many Central and South American ones, though I don't know about Colombia. Looks like later this year they will be in Mexico, Peru, Chile, Argentina, and Brazil. So there's hope at least.
Feeling better? Venting is much better than punching someone, though that's probably more satisfying. At least tomorrow's a new day, and hopefully not so poopy...
Excellent! I never would have thought to try getting it on their website. Good thinking. Gods Eater is downloading now, though it tells me there is still 78 minutes left lol, so I doubt I'll be playing it tonight. But I downloaded adhoc party on my PS3 so that's all ready to go now
Cool! Yeah, I wish I could have met him but we just didn't have time. But we want to go again, so I'll meet him next time
By the way, Cary, did you hear about Pac-Man runner coming out on the App Store tonight? I think it's called Pac-Man Dash or something. I don't know if it will play at all like Pac-Man, but I'm sure you'd get a kick out of it regardless.
