LucasArts Pioneer Discusses Classic Games

Posted by simoniker on from the mmm-rescue-on-fractalus dept.

neonstz writes "David Fox, co-author of Rescue on Fractalus, Maniac Mansion and Zak McKracken And The Alien Mindbenders, visited The Gathering demo-party in Norway this easter. He gave a nice on-site presentation, unfortunately not available online, about the early days of Lucasfilm Games (now known as LucasArts) and Rescue on Fractalus, but there's also a lengthy interview with Fox on the official Gathering site, discussing his own games and game development in general."

    No need for a C64 emulator for Maniac Mansion or Zac McKraken at least. MM was available for a lot of different platforms, including DOS and the original NES.
