An Interview with:
Chris Geroux
(ScumSoft HQ Webmaster, and maker of Astro Chicken 2 and Orat Sportz)
What first got you interested in Space Quest?
When I was seven, my dad brought home Space Quest ][. Of course, I had no idea what was going on, but I thought it was cool. We later got SQ1, then SQ3, and so on.
What is it in the Space Quest series that has captivated your attention for so long?
The zanyness of it all. Roger Wilco, the JANITOR, saves the galaxy. You just can't beat a storyline like that!
What are your reactions to the sudden onslaught of Space Quest web sites popping up everywhere?
I'm overjoyed! I just love seeing all the new ideas other people have.
How do you stand on the issues of Full Motion Video and 3d-ness in games? Would you enjoy a Space Quest with either of these?
So long as they have a definite purpose in the game story.
Would you still buy Space Quest games if they were ever written without any help at all from the original Two Guys from Andromeda?
I'd buy a Space Quest no matter who made it, so long as it's the same style of hilariousness the Two Guys (Long May They Reign) introduced.
Which is your favorite Space Quest and why?
Space Quest ]I[. It was the first one I beat on my own, and the humor is the funniest out of the whole series!
Who is your favorite character who is NOT a main character?
Come on! Couldn't you tell? It's (bum bum bum baaaa!!!) Astro Chicken!
Why, after the game I made about him, a blind man could see that!
How do you get the ideas for your ScumSoft Games (Orat Sportz, and Astro Chicken 2)?
I just saw that no one else had done anything like a Space Quest rip-off yet. Really, I made them more for myself then any other reason, just because I like the stuff so much! Hey, here's a teaser. Thanks to your cool idea, the next game now in production is Eureka Trash Pickup. The storyline is basically Space Quest V, with a few more arcade sequences. Troels Pleimert is doing an all-original, never-before-heard, brand spanky new soundtrack just for that game!
Which Astro Chicken do you enjoy the most? Astro Chicken? Ms. Astro Chicken: Flight of the Pullet? Or your own Astro Chicken 2?
I'd have to say Ms. Astro Chicken. I just love dropping eggs on unsuspecting farmers! Besides, wouldn't it be kinda vain if I said my favorite was my own game?
What is your favorite color?
Roger-tunic-smoky gray. My whole wardrobe is that color! NOT! But I still like it!
In closing, I'd just like to say I've thoroughly enjoyed my two whole minutes of fame. Goodbye kids, don't forget to brush your teeth!
