Interview: SCUMM of the Earth

Post by doomer »

Here is a nice interview with Ron Gilbert posted on IGN. He talks about how he created SCUMM, a bit about his current project, and also praises ScummVM. I think it is a good read.

Well, of course. Any interview that says nice things about ScummVM is. It's automatic. :)

I think someone should quote this on the front page (coming from the legend himself)...
IGN: What do you think about ScummVM, which allows games that use the SCUMM engine to be ported to every platform under the sun?

Gilbert: I think it's great that it's been ported to so many platforms. I remember how difficult it was to work with and I'm amazed that they've made it compatible with so many different games. It just completely blows me away. I actually saw someone playing Monkey Island on the DS. Really, really neat.
