Video Game Videos

Background
Video Game Videos is another vanity card of Flash animator Max Gilardi (aka Hotdiggedydemon), used exclusively on Wacky Game Jokez 4 Kidz!, in which the name is connected to Mickey the Dick's workplace, an evil video game comedy corporation.

(February 16-October 20, 2010)


Nicknames: "The Jumpscare Cat", "Psycho Cat", "Bloody Cat", "Catzilla", "Illuminati Suspect"

Logo: Over a gradient background, a black 8-bit style "V" is seen on the center with the 8-bit text "VIDEO GAME VIDEOS INC." below. An eye opens on the bottom of the "V" (probably representing the corporation's possible relations to the Illuminati). Out of nowhere, a realistic - cat with a furious expression and transparent blood on its face pops up and screams at the audience, as the background flashes in white and. The last second has the camera completely taken by the cat's face before we cut to the Hotdiggedydemon logo.

Trivia: The cat's name is "Catzilla", who only appears in the logo and not in the actual series. In "Mickey's Rebuttal", Catzilla's head appears on Mickey's body on the series' title card. Mickey's head would then appear on Catzilla's body in the Video Game Videos logo.

FX/SFX: A mix of Flash animation and Photoshop.

Music/Sounds: A brief, menacing synth note once the eye opens, then we hear Catzilla's maniacal, breathy scream. On "Mickey's Rebuttal", we hear Mickey imitating Catzilla's scream as "SCRAAAAAAAAAAAAA".

Availability: Seen after all episodes of the web series Wacky Game Jokez 4 Kidz!.

Editor's Note: The eye on the V and Catzilla's appearance would certainly freak out newcomers.
