It's the oldest ancestor of The Ur-Quan Masters (a.k.a. Star Control 2), which is one of my favorite games.

Stop shilling your game. Videogames will never take off.

got me. is that thing portable? looks easier to transport than my game gear

>>3084039
What's a Game Gear?

What's the oldest video game you've seen? A place about an hour from my house has a Pong cabinet, but the dials are twitchy and messed up.

Anyone ever see Computer Space?

>>3083984
Better than anything released for N64.

You don't need any specific circuits. Just port the code over to whatever platform you want, the source code is publicly available.

*Searches Spacware wiki* [...program for the PDP-1...]

Holy crap, I thought it was a purely analog game.

You sure are one angry retard.

What's the best way of playing Spacewar aside from traveling to the Computer History Museum in California?

>>3084657
It's free on Steam, but hidden.

I played it at home on my TV!

I made something pretty similar in Pascal when I was like 13. I didn't know the original game of course, it just seemed like a cool idea.

>>3084723
it was written as an example of how to integrate Steamworks into your game as a developer back when Steamworks was the new thing

Never been around when The Computer History Museum has had their PDP-1 up and running to try it, but I've played around with the pair of Galaxy Game cabs they have sitting around.

The CHM has so much shit they aren't displaying. There's just nowhere to put it all.
