The Space Pope talks to Player Attack! (Part 2) [SE5 EP18 - 4/4]
- 7 years ago
This week on Player Attack, we're off to AVCon to meet interesting people!
AVCon is Adelaide's Anime and Video Games Festival, an annual gathering that brings the South Australian community together to celebrate what makes them happy. Each year, an assortment of guests are also invited, drawn from across the realms of pop culture - and it's difficult to tell who has more fun, the attendees or the VIPs!
We spent some time with one of the guests in town for AVCon this year - Chris Pope, known to his fans as the Space Pope. His childhood dream was to become a game developer at Sierra, working on games like Space Quest. Fast-forward a few years, and even though Sierra is long gone, the Space Pope has teamed up with two of the original developers to create Space Venture - a spiritual successor to the series.
Did we mention he also held a world record for playing Pac-Man? This is a man of many talents!
