The Spectrum Show 89 Live

Post by PaulJ »

Another episode goes live.
The story and games of Carnell Software is the main ficus in this one, but there are other things too.

Great show, as ever.

I remember seeing those Carnell adverts and picturing what the games would be like. Obviously they turned out to be nothing like I expected. That St Bernard game really is complete carp.. :lol:

I loved that Spectrum Adventures book, and remember typing in the Eye of the Star Warrior. But I think I mis-typed something, ended up getting error messages and messed-up graphics, so gave up.

I think if those early dungeon-based offerings had all been in machine code I would have quite liked them, a bit like Out of the Shadows which was very impressive.

Thanks Paul. :)

News has reached the 1990s and is getting a bit thin on the ground. Will there be enough to sustain the show until the 100th episode, we wonder... :?:
