Missed it by that much Welcome everyone! Today we are looking at the game Glacier Patrol, which was made by VSS for Sunrise Software, but released later by Telegames. It was much more interesting than I thought, and there is much more feedback than I expected for this one. Thank you for that. Coming up next is the prototype Grover's Music Make by Atari. If you have any feedback, please send it to [email protected] by September 9th. As always I thank you for listening.

  What a lovely flock of gazebos Hi there, welcome back my friends to the show that no longer comes out on time. In this episode I talk about two (count 'em) games by Tigervision, Miner 2049er and Miner 2049er Volume II. two sides of the same coin, if you will. there's lots of fun links to check out down yonder so have at it if you are so inclined. Next up is Glacier Patrol, made by Sunrise via VSS but distributed well after the fact by Telegames. I'm sure all of you spent hours playing this game in your youth,; if you'd like to tell me about it please send an email or audio to me at [email protected] by August 19th. Thank you very kindly, have a lovely day and I thank you for listening.   Miner 2049er on Random Terrain Miner 2049er Vol. 2 on Random Terrain Miner 2049er coverage in Electronic Games August 1983 Miner 2049er history on Big Five Software website (archived) Miner 2049er on Atari Protos Miner 2049er Vol. 2 on Atari Protos Bill Hogue interview by ANTIC Podcast/Kevin Savetz Miner 2049er Information Page by Nick Marentes (contains interviews) Bill Hogue's Miner 2049er/Bounty Bob Emulator (It Works!)

Hello! Thanks for joining me in this episode all about Squeeze Box by U.S. Games. As I type this I am realizing that I made a huge mistake in the show, something I could have fixed if I looked at my own previous research. What a maroon! Hopefully I'll remember to correct it in the next episode. Which will be about Miner 2049er and Miner 2049er Vol. 2, both by Tigervision. I will also be talking about the Atari 8 bit game that spawned these two cartridges, as well as its creator, Bill Hogue, who I believe was 20 when he created the game. When I was 20 I was eating at White Castle three times a week. Oh well. If you have feedback for Miners 2049er, please send it to me at [email protected] by EOD May 27th. Hopefully I can keep this streak going! Thank you all for listening, I am so glad you are here.
