First Spear Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 (edited) The sign up page is now live for people to commit to playing a game for Intellivision Day on December 3rd! As always, could use a little debug help by googling for "Intellivision Day" and clicking on the Intv Prime link, registering for a game, and posting here if any issues arose and if registration was successful. https://www.google.com/search?q=intellivision+day Registration should be a little smoother this year, multiple people can now commit to playing the same game (though this is discouraged, give every game a chance to be played ). On behalf of the Fun Registry Department at Intv Prime, thanks! Edited October 4, 2021 by First Spear 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinjinhawke Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Looks like I'm playing Wizard of Wor? Hopefully signing up for this is not like Squid Game. Now that could be an interesting home-brew for Intellivision. Squid Game. A bunch of deadly mini-games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just stock Safari on an iPad. ... UPDATE: I just tried on my Mac (running the very ancient Mac OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.6), using a special build of the Mozilla code-base called "InterWeb" (version 2020.06.07). It let me sign up without issues ... and I still haven't seen a CAPTCHA. -dZ. Edited October 4, 2021 by DZ-Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not know about that? But my oldest Macs that are still on the internet are running 9.2(68K), 10.4(PPC) and 10.5(PPC) which is even too old for Interweb.

NeonPeon Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I've signed up for Shark! Shark! I will likely do a livestream on my Youtube channel for the interaction, and play additional games as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DZ-Jay Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I signed up to play two of my favorite games: Christmas Carol and Bomb Squad. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cmadruga Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 (edited) It would be nice if all plays could be video recorded. Just 1 or 2 matches. Then someone would edit them and make a single video. In each of the segments, as we play them, whoever is playing could comment on: - why was that game picked - what makes it special - why others should play it too The end result would be this lovely community-owned homage to Intellivision games. Anyway, just an idea. Edited October 4, 2021 by cmadruga 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Twitch, I think anybody can grab a segment of a video and save it. Twitch livestream videos are normally deleted after 60 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmadruga Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I never recorded anything on Twitch, but I can certainly try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be great to play on livestream. I didn't know Livestreaming was in the cards for this. The original idea is to just play and celebrate the birthday. But streaming a good idea. I could run the same setup as before for the 2020 Intellivision Virtual Expo Game Room, which last time supported about 24 hours of live video (4 independent streams for 6 hours each). All the players need(ed) was to push their play through OBS to the streaming endpoint and the cloud did the rest. Some players had their own Intellivisions with HDMI-out going to a PC which ran OBS, one player had a Flashback that piped video through it, some people had emulators running on their PCs running OBS. So, if there is enough interest from people with OBS, I'll coordinate it. One of the benefits of working this way for IVE2020 was that .mp4 files are created for each segment as automatic output and they were straightforward to put into Rev's Youtube space afterwards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I went with FUBAR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
First Spear Posted October 5, 2021 Author Share Posted October 5, 2021 OK, well, we have some time before December 3rd. So anyone that wants to stream their play and can stream to an RTMP(S) endpoint using OBS or similar, email the Media and Events Division of Intv Prime at contact@intvprime.com, and if there is sufficient interest in the next month I'll organize. Thanks for the idea! 2 hours ago, Zendocon said: No worries. I'll be playing too. The idea behind livestreaming is to keep the party going whether or not I'm actively playing.

Hopefully I'm not the only one who read that and basically heard in their head what adults sound like in a Peanuts cartoon. I do know how to watch a stream though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+DZ-Jay Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 On topic: I don’t plan to stream. However, I could record my play sessions and post them, if someone wants to create a compilation video, which is what I thought @cmadruga was suggesting. dZ.
