Maniac Mansion exists because Gary and I were too stupid to know it couldn't be done. As I get older and more experienced I am losing the ability to be too stupid to know things can't be done. Experience can be a curse.
@grumpygamer Just out of sheer curiosity; why don't you list Zak McKracken amongst the games you've made? (It's the one I like the most).
@uoou Because I didn't make Zak, @DavidBFox did. I don't take credit for things I didn't do.
@grumpygamer @DavidBFox Fair enough! (wikipedia lists you as a designer)
@uoou @DavidBFox Wikipedia is wrong about so many things. The Monkey Island page is filled with made up crap.
I guess you have, as Tolkien once lamented, been "made an object of fiction while still alive".
