Episode 53 – Willy Beamish
July 2, 2014
Howdy Blockers!
In episode 53 we discuss the 1991 Dynamix adventure game, The Adventures of Willy Beamish.
Not much in the news this week.
It appears Star Citizen’s pre-alpha multiplayer functionality has just gone live.
Also, both the Steam and GoG.com summer sales have ended. I hope everyone had a good haul.
We then get into the main topic, Willy Beamish where we discuss the story, unique gameplay, technology and development.

Next time I’ll be covering my second Sid Meier game, Sid Meier’s Pirates!
See you then!

Wow! I’ve discovered this podcast recently after months of fruitless search, looking for a DOS gaming based show. And I have to say your podcast is really awesome, just what I was looking for! Where have you been all this time?? 🙂
Been hiding out right here! Glad you’re enjoying the show! Feel free to fire off an email whenever you’d like!
I agree this podcast fills a void I’ve been looking to fill for quite a while….does anyone have suggestions of similar podcasts?
There are a few decent dos podcasts
W1S1 — still going but early episodes were the best as focus on great games of the past

retro city – now defunked C64 and general gaming — more aimed at music

dosnostalgia — pretty good
