The makers of What The Dub?! and RiffTrax, consisting of Mystery Science Theater 3000 alumni, have collaborated on RiffTrax: The Game. It’s a party game where you compete to write the best dubs for the worst movie scenes.
If you’ve ever felt that your family or regular gaming group were capable of thinking up your own MST3K-style quips, then developer Wide Right Interactive has the game for you. What the Dub?! Is a new party game that tasks players with creating quips that will be inserted into public domain movie clips. Participants can liven up old movies, odd advertisements, and other video rarities with their own unique dubs.
Our esteemed Video Editor Greg Burke got a chance to sit down with Head Programmer Mark Zorn and Creative Director Jim Dirschberger of Wide Right Interactive. The trio discuss the challenges arising from making multiplatform indie games and how What the Dub?! was put together.
