Intellivisionaries Episode 10 is Live!

[IntyPod Burgertime]

Yes, we've hit the double digits.

Join us as we go “deep” into the dungeons of Treasure Of Tarmin / Minotaur. We interview designer / programmer Tom Loughry. We also interview Scott Nudds who is currently programming Boulder Dash for the Intellivision (coming soon from Elektronite / First Star Software), and William Moeller joins in for part of the interview too. Rick gives us another programming segment, and we include our usual feedback, news and fun (“George” is back too). See you on level 256!

Thanks Burgertime! I think things are better when you announce the eps. It looks like you can at least keep the episode numbers straight...

Lol you've mixed them up before? I must not have noticed.

What? Only 5 hours long this time? What am I going to do with the rest of my work day?

And just when I thought I was caught up! Great stuff so far. Very glad to hear that Nurmix only had nice things to say about the prototype Intellivision Flashback.

 

The extended theme song is too long, just like the rest of the podcast, which is awesome.

A giant THANK YOU to the guys that produce the Intellivisionaries podcast!

 

Each podcast is very well done and your enthusiasm for the Intellivision screams aloud. The programmer interviews are especially priceless.

 

Great work!

Thanks, Feyer. We intend to keep going, since all three of us enjoy it just as much, if not more than the listeners.

By the way, I wanted to apologize for the less than stellar audio quality in Tom Loughry's interview. He lives in a remote area of California, where the Internet is down more than up, and the phone lines date back to the early 1900s. I did the interview with Skype-to-phone, and unfortunately the buzzing and noise was unavoidable. And for the record, when I called him from my phone, it wasn't any better, so it wasn't a Skype thing.

 

That being said, I still think hearing from him is worth putting up with the bad audio quality. I hope you guys agree.

[Rev]

Dude!!! After a couple of drinks you will be pouring your heart out!

[Feyer]

I'd still enjoy listening to the interviews if they were recorded on wax cylinders!

When are you going to review Match 5? :-)

[+SoulBuster]

Some updates on Treasure of Tarmin.

 

Spiritual monsters die faster with spiritual weapons and war with war. But not by much. The thing to keep in mind is to not switch the type of weapon while in combat [start with spiritual and change to war]. Retreat first and then attack again with the other weapon.

 

Use the teleport to move to another dungeon on the same level to build up stats faster [more dungeons on easier levels to go through] before venturing downward. This is where the view of the map is handy.

 

You cannot retreat right after a retreat [2 retreats in a row]. So, be careful not to retreat and end up in front of a monster, you will have to fight him with only 1 recourse. You can toss items at a monster while in battle to make him forget you are fighting and then you can walk away.

@Soulbuster Yup, the moving one dungeon over using the gate was something I bought up. I did it a couple times during my multiple playthroughs.

 

I love that I don't know what else is in the show outside of the discussions between the 3 of us. I was cracking up at our CGE announcement from "George".

Willy gave me an idea for a new segment on the podcast.

 

The homebrew highlight.

 

Some kind of mini review/ highlight of a released homebrew.
