I don't know if this is the right place to say this, but if you get a message from my Discord account saying that I've accidentally reported you for scams/fraud, it isn't me. I've just become the victim of a scam that everybody but me knew about, but just in case I wanted to warn everyone
If they give you the account of a support person, don't go there. Don't talk to them.

ScumLabs Employees Profiles: Dr. Vector
Tumblr media
youtube
Video by BlueberryBurrito
Relevant section: 2:16 to 2:36
Bio: Dr. Vector was brought in to reassure Mr. Z and the ScumLab Board of Directors with a solution to the monster problem: shrinking and cryogenically freezing them into Cryo-Tube containers. He went on to explain that he had the Cryo-Tubes hidden in buildings throughout the world, believing the chance of them being found to be “highly unlikely.”
Tumblr media
Cryo-Tube Diagram
Once it became clear that some of the monsters had escaped from their Cryo-Tubes and were an active threat, Dr. Vector began piloting various assault vehicles to take down the monsters himself. 
Example of Monster being unlocked from finding and opening Cryo-Tube:

Video by Jakob Svensson
Relevants section: 0:04-00:11
His arrogance was further demonstrated by the taunts he shouted during those battles. One particular taunt was revealing:”I created you, you ungrateful beast!”, implying he was involved with the creation of Scum Soda. Whether mutation of humans was part of a secret plan of his or an unintended side effect of his work is unknown.
Dr. Vector’s fate following the destruction of the Scum Blimp in New York City is unknown. However, given that he survived the destruction of the prior assault vehicles, it’s reasonable to assume he may have survived the final battle.

As much fun as the Rampage games are, it’s sad to see how the original creators became less involved with the series and were screwed over in terms of recognition.
From an interview with Brian Colin:
Tumblr media
It’s also sad how Jeff Nauman has gotten the short end of the stick when it comes his contribution as programmer:
https://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/ct-ent-rampage-creator-0412-story.html
This article goes into the history behind the game (most of which I’ve already covered) and what the developers did afterwards. It really sucks that Jeff Nauman got shafted as far as being called for a cameo in the film, but maybe it might’ve been for the best, given how the scene where Brian Colin made a cameo was ultimately left on the cutting room floor, despite many new articles hyping up his small appearance.

This 2022 interview video goes into detail regarding various aspects of the development of Rampage arcade and Rampage World Tour along with other games Brian Colin designed. It's mostly old information, though there are some cool tidbits.
youtube
33:21 Apparently while developing the story for Rampage World Tour, Dr. Betty Veronica was intended to be Eustace DeMonic's daughter. Nothing in the game itself indicates any relationship besides her speaking on the phone with him at some points, indicated by the music from his cutscenes. She may even be speaking with him the whole time as opposed to anyone else in her phone cutscenes. That would certainly explain her authority telling either Eustace or some other employee to clean up a toxin due to its unknown effects (in reference to the V.E.R.N. mutation) and why she's being made privy to information about secret weapons as she's the CEO's daughter.
51:59 Rampage 3D: the unmade Rampage World Tour sequel concept. This one is interesting, though I feel like it would've been better as its own property. It's still more creative than simply adding new characters though, even if I do love all the various new characters that got added over the years.
54:27 Brian offered up story ideas for the Rampage movie, only to be turned down. Which sucks but not surprising.
55:22 Brian talks about filming his cameo, meeting Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson on the set of the Rampage movie and going to the film's premiere, finding out his cameo was cut from the film and a mention of his interview in the DVD extras. Even if the cameo was cut, Brian was basically treated like royalty from the sound of it and that's saying something compared to how many other creators are treated when adaptations of their properties are made.
58:56 Brian's thoughts on how the film was faithful in spirit to his game stories. He makes a fair point, I'll admit.
59:26 Brian gushes about Dwayne being a Rampage fanboy. It's cute and I'm glad they got to meet.

RAMPAGE! 
Fan art of my spin of a more game accurate “humans turn into monsters”.
Lizzie, Ralph and George for the 1st film.  For the sequel, Boris, Ruby and Curtis. 
1st image, Left to right: 
Lizzie: Your average teenager who regularly goes to the gym to work out. Is a total delinquent who enjoys vandalism. On of her hobbies is owning various reptiles and lizards as her pets. Her exposure to the chemical happens after she is bitten by one of her pet reptiles. Crossing her DNA w/ that of a lizard. For her design, like the original game, I looked at the Ymir (“20 Million Miles To Earth” w/ effects aka the alien by Ray Harryhausen) for inspiration. Along w/ old depictions of dinosaurs, TriStar’s Godzilla, Spider-Man’s “The Lizard” character, and her tail based off the stegosaurus thagomizer. Ralph: A “lone wolf”, who enjoys drinking beer, eating, and stoning out on weekends w/ the company of his lovable husky. Works as a part-time trucker. Lives far out in the woods. Gets a face full of dog kisses before he is exposed to the chemicals that cause his transformation into a giant mutant wolf. I looked to the classic Universal horror, “The Wolf Man” along w/ the many other werewolves of film to find inspiration. In the end, it more or less just looks like the 2018 film but w/ more human posturing. : /
George: He is a rather troubled preteen with issues involving his anger. Is regularly harassed at school as they find his outbursts amusing. Regularly goes to school counseling for it w/ Davis Okoye, a former US Army Special Forces soldier (Dwayne Johnson’s character). His transformation into a simian-like creature occurs during school the day after being exposed to the chemicals. When designing him, I chose to mix the gorilla-ness of his appearance w/ other primates such as monkeys. As well as the elusive Bigfoot. Another one being his design from “Rampage: Total Destruction”. Which looks the most human; facially anyways, of all the designs.  2nd image, not sure of their backstory but perhaps they were previous test subjects that get loose or whatever.

Well, was not as productive as I hoped to be while my family was visiting but they're away so I can do stuff again. This was more suggestion than request I suppose, but it's from last year when I started posting on Newgrounds. Someone said something like "Why not do something from the games?" on my Movie Lizzie picture. Problem is my idea would need me to be a much better artist with a solid handle on three point perspective so I just toned it down to a more boring view and I thought it might be fun to try and make it look a little like the old game itself.

Thanks for understanding and for the encouragement! :)
have you ever considered writing any rampage fanfic? the ao3 rampage tag could really use some good stuff in it
I have pondered the idea at times. I don't know if I would have the energy because of having to do everything myself versus with other people. I could do it, no doubt, but it'd have to be at a time where I had the time and energy and really had a story worth putting a lot of effort into.

don't you find the story of the rampage tragic
Oh absolutely. People just going about their lives and then having them shattered either due to misguided choices or more often criminal negligence depending on the telling. Then they go on to destroy countless lives in pursuit of revenge and filling their bellies. Everyone has to suffer one way or another in this series, most often due to the poster child for negligence and greed that is ScumLabs. Plus you get aliens taking advantage of a global emergency to invade: the human race never really catches a break and the monsters themselves never know when they'll change back and be vulnerable or become monsters again just when they're getting used to being human again.
Even the movie had animals just living their lives twisted physically and mentally. Two out of the three had their family killed and two out of three also die very brutal deaths. George has also lost family all over again by the end because there's no way he can go back to his troop in his current state and he's most likely not going to be left alone by the U.S. military after all the death and destruction he caused, no matter how unwitting it may have been.
This is why Rampage as a franchise needs humor to help offset how sad and pessimistic its events are.

it’s been cold by years, won’t you let it lie?  ❞ ❝  so softly i’ll remind you, of the ways you let me down.  ❞ ❝  now i’m a ghost of what i once was.  ❞ ❝  why don’t you place your hand in mine?  ❞ ❝  don’t be afraid. you know you are where you’re meant to be.  ❞ ❝  tell me, what you waiting for?  ❞ ❝  please, this is just too good to be gone.  ❞ ❝  you look like yourself but you’re somebody else.  ❞ ❝  don’t let the darkness eat you up.  ❞      ❝  i can hear your pulse racing from here.  ❞ ❝  to capture a predator, you can’t remain the prey.  ❞ ❝  heavy is the crown, but only for the weak.  ❞ ❝  to the ends of the earth, would you follow me?  ❞ ❝  i’ve told a million lies but now i tell a single truth.  ❞ ❝  you’re supposed to save me from me.  ❞ ❝  i think we both know the way this story ends.  ❞ ❝  i am a human being, capable of doing terrible things.  ❞ ❝  i heard a scream in the woods somewhere.  ❞ ❝  i do not feel nostalgia for a past life. a new chapter, new thoughts.  ❞ ❝  your traces remain and they torture me.  ❞ ❝  this is never gonna go our way if i’m gonna have to guess what’s on your mind.  ❞ ❝  do you feel the hunger? does it terrify you? or do you feel alive?  ❞ ❝  do you ponder the manner of things in the dark?  ❞ ❝  some legends are told, some will turn to dust or to gold, but you will remember me.  ❞ ❝  there’s nothing that i’d take back but it’s hard to say there’s nothing i regret.  ❞ ❝  i’m sorry for everything. everything i’ve done.  ❞ ❝  time to let it go. it won’t let go of me.  ❞ ❝  i don’t want no one to know i’m vulnerable. why?  ❞ ❝  we just need to go through it and grow, don’t cry.  ❞ ❝  i’m not entirely here. half of me has disappeared.  ❞ ❝  can we always be this close forever and ever?  ❞ ❝  i love me. not so perfect but so beautiful.  ❞ ❝  i’m highly suspicious that everyone who sees you wants you.  ❞ ❝  i don’t care if your love is a risk to me, with you i bet everything.  ❞ ❝  i know if i’m haunting you, you must be haunting me.  ❞ ❝  i love the way you can see the good in everything.  ❞ ❝  i heard that evil comes disguised.  ❞ ❝  you are a mythical thing.  ❞ ❝  oh, stupid things i do, i’m far from good, it’s true.  ❞ ❝  you gotta be so cold to make it in this world.  ❞ ❝  anger destroys your soul.  ❞ ❝  don’t you tell me what you think that i can be.  ❞ ❝  your mind is playing tricks on you, my dear.  ❞ ❝  i might be proud, but at least i’m proud of something. you’ve taken pride in becoming nothing.  ❞ ❝  you got my attention, so what’s your intention?  ❞ ❝  what if i let you in and you don’t like what you see?  ❞ ❝  all the promises at sundown…i’ve meant them like the rest.  ❞ ❝  ain’t it warming you, the world going up in flames?  ❞ ❝  this sick, strange darkness comes creeping on, so haunting every time.  ❞ ❝  i don’t want to rest in peace. i’d rather be the ghost that annoys you.  ❞ ❝  i hope you know that i’d give it all for a moment with you.  ❞ ❝  maybe i’m hopeless, but i’m only human.  ❞ ❝  don’t look at me with those eyes.  ❞ ❝  you don’t know how lovely you are.  ❞ ❝  just say the word. we’ll take on the world.  ❞ ❝  i just need to know that you won’t forget about me.  ❞ ❝  the time has come when you and i must part.  ❞ ❝  i can see the pain in your eyes.  ❞ ❝  you’ve got a warm heart, but it’s disintegrating.  ❞ ❝  no light, no light in your bright blue eyes.  ❞ ❝  you’ve got a lot to say from the one that walked away.  ❞ ❝  i don’t even know if i believe everything you’re trying to say to me.  ❞ ❝  lay down your arms. i don’t wanna fight anymore.  ❞ ❝  they made a monster out of me.  ❞ ❝  i said i am no evil man then i paused as if convinced of what that meant.  ❞ ❝  no one knows the inner grief of my poor aching heart.   ❞ ❝  i belong with you, you belong with me. you’re my sweetheart.  ❞ ❝  i had the strangest feeling your world’s not all it seems.  ❞ ❝  yeah, remember when you wanted to forget me?  ❞ ❝  if you don’t love me now, you will never love me again.  ❞ ❝  i’ll be laughing while you’re running. you won’t see me coming.  ❞ ❝  we created something phenomenal, don’t you agree?  ❞ ❝  i still dream ‘bout the good old days when we took care of each other.  ❞ ❝  this is the way that i will break you, my dear.  ❞ ❝  make sure nobody sees you leave.  ❞ ❝  i learned to be in love and learned to be alone, satisfied body and hungry soul.  ❞ ❝  sorry i was never good like you.  ❞ ❝  you know you will not gain strength from this path. you know you will not gain peace from this path. but you are addicted and on this path.  ❞ ❝  time cast a spell on you but you won’t forget me.  ❞ ❝  we’re connected by a thread. if we’re ever far apart, i’ll still feel the pull of you.  ❞ ❝  i’m still thinking, let’s pretend to fall asleep now.  ❞ ❝  i turned and ran to save a life i never had.  ❞     ❝  i’m not sorry. i’m just getting started.  ❞ ❝  i don’t think i can love anyone but you, dear, that’s for sure.  ❞ ❝  let me occupy your mind as you do mine.  ❞ ❝  i know that i caught your eye.  ❞ ❝  i wonder what’s on your mind.  ❞ ❝  the more that i fight it, the more that i think about it.  ❞ ❝  i’d rather be alone, i am not good in crowds. ❞ ❝  a voice within me keeps repeating: you — you — you.  ❞   ❝  what must it be like to grow up that beautiful?  ❞ ❝  tell me what do you mean when you say that we’re not okay.  ❞ ❝  i loved you then and i love you now.  ❞ ❝  when your eyes are closing, where do you wish you were instead? ❞ ❝  what if you hear the thoughts that haunt me in my sleep?  ❞ ❝  the light is coming to take back everything the darkness stole.  ❞ ❝  as much as i definitely enjoy solitude, i wouldn’t mind perhaps spending little time with you.  ❞ ❝  i feel that i’m finally growing weary of waiting to be consumed by you.  ❞ ❝  in the cracks of light, i dreamed of you.  ❞ ❝  it pains me to see you cry.  ❞ ❝  you will always be my favourite ghost.  ❞ ❝  every moment with you is like the first time.  ❞ ❝  started with a word, now look where we are.  ❞ ❝  you keep telling me that i’m wrong. your eyes only see what they want to see.  ❞ ❝  i just cannot make it through the day without thinking of you lately.  ❞ ❝  just say that you don’t want me, just say that you don’t need me. tell me i’m the fool.  ❞ ❝  we made the best of what we had, you know?  ❞ ❝  there’s an ache in you.  ❞ ❝  you are the ghost that rattles my bones.  ❞ ❝  i’m just as good as anybody. i’m just as bad as anybody.  ❞
