Геймдев XX века: как делались игры нашего детства

История игростроения – захватывающая и многогранная тема, за долгие годы обросшая мифами, стереотипами и интересными историями. Конец ХХ века, эпоха расцвета игр и становления многих жанров, особенно богат на такие вещи. В этой статье мы познакомимся с некоторыми интересными образцами технологий, применявшихся в геймдеве с 1980-х до конца 1990-х годов. И своими глазами увидим, какими тернистыми путями шли разработчики к тому, чтобы воплотить свои мечты.

BTW: One of the things I learned from Jordan Mechner in his documentary?

HOW TO PRONOUNCE "KARATEKA"

❌ Since I was 10yo, I've said, "ka-RAH-tek-ah".

✅ Jordan pronounces his game, "care-uh-TEK-uh".

This was the 1st Digital Eclipse release of these #GenX documentaries on classic video games. Lots of Jordan Mechner videos... really cool background on #Karateka.

@mookie Got it but haven't played it yet. I played through #MakingofKarateka & I only just realized there's a TON of DLC for #Atari50.

Happy anniversary to #Karateka! 40 years ago this week, @jmechner brought nuanced animation, incredible music, and a strong narrative to computer gaming. Follow his journey with the #GoldMasterSeries interactive documentary The Making of Karateka: digitaleclipse.com/games/karateka

Spent a lovely evening with @jmechner on #MadridInGame. Soon, the full interview will be available on #MeriStation.

This is a video review of the making of karateka played with a press key provided by the developer.

"I’m sincerely asking you to play this. Not because you love #Karateka, but because this is how you preserve video game history." -- Mike Drucker for thegamer.com

https://www.thegamer.com/learn-game-history-the-making-of-karateka/

Strange but true: If you inserted the original #Karateka Apple II disc upside down, you could play through the entire game that way. You can toggle this as a pause-menu option in The Making of Karateka -- it was too cool not to preserve. :)

Why "just" Steam codes? They work internationally & we happen to have some on hand. Not offering a free game on your favorite platform should not be taken as a personal insult or "no love for [x]?" Please don't take it that way?

Which games? The #DEArcade series, The Making of #Karateka, #Llamasoft: The Jeff Minter Story & #Wizardry PGMO.

Posts will appear at random times, starting in the wee hours April 8; it's all over by 9pm PT/midnight ET, so if you don't win a game by then, go buy one! 😄
