Uber Entertainment is an independent game company based out of Kirkland, WA. Their first game, Monday Night Combat was just released on Xbox Live Arcade. It was premiered at PAX East where Tycho of Penny Arcade spoke of its greatness. The team has a background in gaming, coming from Gas Powered Games, who worked on the game Demigods for the PC.

I had the chance to ask Logan Demelt, Director of Testing and Associate Producer of Monday Night Combat some questions. Check past the break for the interview.

The Naked Gamers: What was the biggest moment for you guys, not counting the release day?

Logan DeMelt:  Honestly? It was PAX East, between the amazing amount of people at the booth and Tycho calling Monday Night Combat the game of PAX East, it was amazing. It was also our first public showing of the game and the amount of people enjoying it was great.

TNG: Why did you decide to make this game?

LD:  With a background in Demigods the guys wanted to make a game that was a 3rd person viral dota, and it blossomed from there, into this brightly colored futuristic world you see in the game.

TNG: If you had to sum up the game in three words what would it be?

LD: Awesome Team Shooter.

TNG: What advice do you have for new players?

LD:  Play the tutorial all the way through to get a feel for the game, and check out crossfire to get a feel for a specific character, if youre not comfortable with multiplayer right away jump into blitz until you are. Check out the trial with 30 minutes of gameplay. Even if you use up all 30 minutes you can still do one challenge on the side you didnt play as much on.

TNG: Will Uber Entertainment be providing continuing support for MNC via updates and DLC?

LD: The team is all about supporting the community 100%, and plan on continual support of MNC. The input from the community has be overwhelming, they’ve let us know ideas for DLC game modes and everything else.

TNG: I’ve noticed Uber doesn’t have a community manager. Why?

LD: We dont have a collective community manager because we all pay attention to the community as a group.

NG: Is there anyone you would like to thank?

LD:  The Fans, The Community everyone that helps makes the game possible because we’re an independently run company. Without the support of everyone we wouldnt be able to continue making games.
