Most of the original Fallout's "dark humor" was added just to make co-creator Tim Cain laugh: "We made this game for each other. When it shipped, we were like, 'Well, I hope other people like it!'"

If it weren’t for The Simpsons, we would have no Radiation King

Fallout's origin can be traced back to a pizza party Tim Cain threw

I launched Giants last night to record a video of the intro 🚀 ✨

It really sets the mood and humor of the game 🙃 (and it's still pretty soft at the beginning 😁)

Shogo: Mobile Armor Division is a 1998 cult classic that fuses first-person shooter action with anime-inspired mecha combat. The game’s innovative critical hit system, branching narrative, and seamless mech controls set it apart, earning critical praise despite modest sales.

It was the review in the French magazine Joystick (spanning several pages!) that made me want to buy Sacrifice 🤩

I feel like it's been somewhat forgotten today, even though it was praised by the press and players.

Here's what's inside the box 🎁 (French edition)

An 80-page manual, the game CD, and 2 bonus CDs with the soundtrack, a level editor, and additional maps.

Today, we'd call this a collector's edition! 😀

New Narrative Analysis video: Borrowed Time, a noir graphical adventure game from #Interplay that doesn't quite bridge the gap to point n click adventure game.

Watch me play through the Amiga port and then analyze its narrative elements.

Secretly I still mourn that this game Star Trek Game (Secret of Vulcam fury) never came out.
Unfortunately all the Assets got lost in the Interplay fuckup. It was also the last time when the whole cast came together to reprise their roles.
