Interview with the Villain of Superman
Greetings, anonymous-villain! Thank you for joining us today. Let’s dive right in. Can you tell us what it’s like being the main villain in Superman?
Ah, the daily grind of villainy in the pixelated world! It’s delightfully exhausting. Imagine orchestrating chaos in Metropolis while dodging that Kryptonian Boy Scout’s fists of justice. It’s like a high-stakes game of hide and seek, only with more explosions and fewer snotty kids yelling “I found you!”
Speaking of Superman, what is your opinion of the Man of Steel?
Oh, Superman—more like Super-snooze. Isn’t he just the most goody-goody, overpowered yardstick of virtue? He flies around in his bright red cape, saving cats from trees. Here’s a thought: maybe he should get a hobby that doesn’t involve ruining my perfectly diabolical plans. What a show-off.
What are your thoughts on the game’s mechanics? Anything you’d like to critique?
desperate attempts to stop my master plan
Let’s talk mechanics, darling! Why does Clark Kent even get involved? Guy looks like he should be selling insurance, not moonlighting as a superhero. And those superpowers! Heat Vision, Super Breaths, X-Ray Vision—a bit of an overkill, don’t you think? If I had such a versatile arsenal, I’d have taken over Metropolis by noon and been home for tea.
Some players complain about the power-ups and hidden secrets. Care to elaborate?
Oh, those pesky power-ups! Pay no heed to them, I say. The developers were so thoughtful to stash goodies like random cans in a fridge. Let’s just say, I’ve hidden a few decoys myself to give Superman some extra running around. X-Ray Vision? More like X-ray-tedious-side-quests! And those random boxes with health boosts—if you find one, chances are you’ll need it. You didn’t hear this from me, but East corner, third screen from the left: there’s an extra life there.
turning every heroic moment into a challenge
Players face several tricky missions in the game. Any words of wisdom for them?
Ah, dear players, the struggle is real, isn’t it? My advice? Get good—or as they say, “git gud”. But here’s a hot tip: always keep an eye on your energy. If you run out while you’re being Mr. Hero, back to Clark Kent you go—straight to the daily bugle? No, wrong universe. Well, back to the tie and glasses routine!
Have you ever wondered why Superman never seems to run out of energy?
Oh, I wonder about that all the time. My theory? Superman has a secret stash of energy drinks! Seriously, those orange soda cans he collects must be packed with taurine and caffeine. It’s not fair! And while we’re at it, developers, where’s my power drink? Even villains need a boost now and then.
Who do you think is the unsung hero in your army of criminals?
Unsung hero? Oh, that would be Bob the Henchman—always there with a snarky comment and a crowbar. Doesn’t dodge a punch well, but he knows how to make a good cup of coffee. Keeps morale high. Also, those sneaky sewer thugs—props to them for popping up when least expected. It’s all about the jump scares!

For those who manage to beat the game, what are your thoughts on their skills?
Oh, you managed to beat the game, did ya? Bravo, you’ve done the impossible! But let’s not get carried away—beating an 8-bit game doesn’t make you the next Lex Luthor. Still, a hat-tip to those who braved my challenges without throwing their controllers in frustration. You’ve earned a gold star. Perhaps an inconspicuous parade in your honor?
Any interesting trivia or quirks about the game you’d like to share?
Fun fact: The developers initially considered giving me a robotic parrot sidekick. Yes, a parrot! Can you imagine it squawking “Destroy Superman!”? Alas, budget cuts—hired more sewer thugs instead. And remember that rainbow bridge level? Purely designed to trip you up. My idea, of course. Keeps you on your toes!
What’s next for you? Retirement or a grand return?
Retirement? Never! One day, Superman might find a few gray hairs in his perfect coif. When that day comes, I shall rise again, even more deviously delightful than before. For now, I’m off to scheme my next grand plot, maybe with a sidekick or two. Just keep your eyes peeled, Metropolis.
Thank you, anonymous-villain. This was entertaining. Any last words for our readers?
Stay villainous, dear readers. And remember, when in doubt—destroy a few power-ups. Keeps things interesting. Until we meet again, or when Superman finally gets a nine-to-five!
And there you have it, folks!
