Calamitous goings-on in Lara 96 for the Mega Drive. Can you spot the AI fails?
The tune is Scott Joplin's Ragtime Dance. For some reason YouTube insists on plastering an ad for the song just below the description, even though I used a Public Domain recording by the man himself. Nonsense.

Requested by Burp Reynolds many years ago... I think. YouTube deleted all my old private messages so I cant be certain.
To celebrate the relaunch of retrounlim.com. Harry Yack thought he might come out of reviewing retirement to show those whippersnappers how its done. Thats right, its time for the questionable scripts again!
Incidentally, do not try eating sponges - unlike Weetabix, their taste cannot be improved by banana slices and dried up grapes.")

Ever wonder where Apple get names for new products? Thats right, they play old type-in games from 80s computing magazines.
Welcome to the Amstrads budget brand version of Centipede. Its never going to be as good as the original, but is pretty decent as far as typed-in games go. It seems there is no story, so here is my own attempt, complete with obligatory iffy Google Translation:
Gary the Garden Gnome was out for evening stroll in forest, when suddenly bright light came and was blind. The aliens arrived! They take the form of cuboid boxes of cardboard and advance upon Gary like centipede.
As sole survivor of gnome race, you must throw stones at monster to turn them to trees. When all body parts are removed, Gary must survive the next wave of alien and prevent takeover.
Can you save the universe from Centipod? Have fun!
If youre the slightest bit interested (and after that story, you *should* be), you can find this game on the ultra-rare(?) 64 Typed In Programs compilation tape/disk.
Its also on this compilation, apparently: http://www.cpc-power.com/index.php?page=detail&num=9264

No James Bond on telly this Christmas Day? Oh well, console yourself with this video, which I suppose you could term a Christmas Special. It is 25 December, after all.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Beer.")

What are some of your favourite lesser-visited video game locations? Here is one of mine.
Why would you need a shop to buy the Fire Shield? Well, theres a troublesome little cheeseball called the Pikit, and hes out for your belongings. If youre not careful, he will swallow them whole.
