Flashback, tracks from the past – ERICADE.RADIO

20 minutes before the show would “Air”, I knew it could be done. My plan was to record it later. But as my previous engagements fell throutgh, I sprung into action and got all things good from Amiga Modules Archive with a rating of 9 out of 10. Hence the cheezy reference to the old sci-fi turkey created by Ed Wood. Then I voice tracked at a warp 10 speed and barely got it out in time.

Storytelling is key in some games but pretty optional in others. IF it needs a story it often ends up making or breaking the whole game itself. DJ Daemon sorts out four major storytelling mechanisms that are commonly found in the business.

Being wrong is no fun, but it's soo easy. This episode jokes around about the incorrect stuff I said during the fall of 2020 and even puts the very idea of calling it “Errata” on a podcast in question. So it's time to question our correctness and sanity. Maybe being wrong is ok, but what if you let a crazy mad scientist style cryptographer doing it on a IT-security podcast? Daemon shudders when he remembers.Errata:– You just read it… I will explain it in the podcast.– And… Geez… This will have no end. The Mix tape guy is actually from Luxembourg, not Germany.

DJ Daemon goes through the Amiga year of 2020 without mentioning the war (which war?), the American election OR too much about the Corona.Relax and enjoy music never heard on the station from the Amiga module-scene and a few stories about:Ibrowse 2.5.3.Vampire V4 stand aloneThe war between Cloanto (Amiga Corporation) and everyone elseThe end of TerribleFire's involvement with the Amiga communityAmikitApolloOS (the artist formerly known as AROS)Hyperion giving up on gobbling up the Boing ball and letting Cloanto have it..Not to forget about Southcentral BBS. Available with telnet on southcentral.se at port 1023, it enables you to experience a slice of Amiga history.Also noting that Taco spelt backwards means something when you buy it too cheap…

Dr Awesome is a staple here, but today's podcast plays the remixes that you don't get to hear on the station otherwise. For one hour we reimagine his old Amiga modules with modern synthesizers and the effects to match. Not much to say, but a lot to experience. Best heard on high volume or with a decent set of head phones at a comfortable level (don't damage your hearing!!).The remixes are by the good doctor himself, because who would be better to improve already stellar songs?

Tropes! The way we put game mechanics into tiny little boxes and the love or hate them.So, what's a Trope?– "a significant or recurrent theme; a motif."Example: "A movie is often built around the "Hero's journey"

Xmas time! This is the three hour long show that we've been waiting for. Broadcast during the Forndata-event, it features some commentaries from me finally losing the battle to Whamming, the cool weirdness that was the demos released and a lot of discussions about the CDTV and the CD32. Those two ultimately failing Commodore projects with vastly different starting points. Why did they fail and what was different and what was exactly the same?The first hour deals with the Forndata event and stuff like that.The second hour is all about the CDTV and it's weird journey.The third hour gives you the CD32 – Commodore's last hurrah.Errata: I claimed that if I gotta Whammed, I would cut the power to the whole building. When that unexpectedly DID happen, I failed to live up to my threat. Very sorry, but I don't want to have a call from my landlord. It's bad for my “having a home”-situation.In hour two, PlayIt live deleted two voicetracks. I was able to fix it live, but ended up not knowing what I had said that was not deleted and therefore name some hardware facts twice. Sorry about that.
