Odo,

Ever heard of Spiderweb Software? They’ve been putting out lo-fi old-school cRPGs for nearly 30 years now. Take a look at Avernum: Escape from the Pit (a remake of their first game, Exile) and see if that scratches the same itch.

Odo,

Spacewave? It tends to be more slow paced and synth-heavy, and really evokes the feeling of giant planets and stars. For example: www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RlxClUifEw&t=1800 (at the 30 minute mark, though the very first song works too)

Odo,

chiefobrienatwork.com/page/391 for anyone looking to start at #1.

Odo,

So like Ocelot in Metal Gear Solid? (Until they retconned it, anyway.)

Odo,

And what dog do they keep for companionship?

A melancholy.

Odo,

I’m relieved to know I’m not the only one who got that mixed up. I had to rewatch the bridge scene to understand they were tracking the ship, and not some psychic outbreak of heightened emotions.

Also, I just now looked ahead. Is the next title really a Garth Marenghi reference? Because that’s amazing.

Odo,

Startropics…been a few years. And I was just wondering what to post next…

Odo,

Records are spotty, but indicate it results from a lack of “updog”.

Odo,

Corporate Memphis. I too hate how it’s taken over.

Odo,

You can save and quit in Zelda, it just takes 2 controllers. You had to pause with controller 1 then hit Up+A on controller 2.

Odo,

That it’s not immediately blasting every ship it comes near. It was either oblivious to the Orions’ presence or ignoring them outright, until they were foolish enough to threaten it.

Odo,

Aw, not Beamdog. :( They made all those enhanced editions classic D&D games like Baldur’s Gate 1 + 2 and Planescape Torment. I didn’t realize they were under Aspyr, which has had serious issues itself lately, not to mention the ongoing money issues at Embracer. We’re going to hear a bunch more stories like this over the next year, aren’t we.

Odo,

Hubbard reused this a couple years later for Skate or Die 2 on the NES. Kicking myself for not thinking to post it earlier. Such amazing music.

Odo,

I still haven’t paid to remove ads, and no Adguard, yet I’ve never had a single ad show up. I wonder if there’s a bug.
