IF & Text Adventure Podcast - Ep.1
First podcast of what I hope will be a series of Podcast episodes about IF and Text Adventure Games; with a bit of a slant towards the UK scene.
So this is VERY amatuer, I have never done this before, I used a dodgy old USB headset with microphone (rescued from work). I have a good idea of how i'd like the series to play out, and the mixture of episode content, and I needed to start somewhere!
In this episode I play Nosferatu by Jeremy Harden. This game is coded (old-school style) in ZIL, so no fancy GUI system here, just Jeremy hammering the keyboard for a few weeks! It's a good effort, there's room for deeper impementation of item description as you'll see but other than that I enjoyed it and will keep trying until I win (I failed on this particular playthrough!) .... So well done Jeremy, keep up the good work!

Yes, it's true, I actually won my son Lewis at a game of Gang Beasts! It was an epic battle too, caught on camera! :D

** Apologies for the audio in places, i'm not sure what's going on, I am only recording through the one source (my Snowball mic) but I do seem to keep getting a sort of echo or doubling up which makes it sound like I have two audio input sources **
The original video by The 8-Bit Guy is here:

As with all content by The 8-Bit Guy it's worth watching, despite my personal thoughts on his ZX80 analysis, and i'm a fan of his.
Let me know what you think in the comments section...

Thanks for checking out the video folks, this is literally just to say that for the immediate future my videos will be going back to a "lo fi" style with just the game on the screen and my voice over-laying it. Why? One word, convenience. At the moment i'm struggling for time and space, I don't have a dedicated computer desk etc so setting everything up takes AGES and means no one else can come near me when i'm doing it.
This way I can pump out the content, albeit low-fi style.

This is starting a new series I'm going to call "Summer of 88" :) Mainly because the period captured is between 1988 and 1996. I might change it to Summer of 96 because that seems like a play on Brian Adams "Summer of 69" :)
So what is this series? Think "My Retro Life" but with much less video games, much more general "out and about" stuff, and set in the UK!
