This is crazy. And I mean that as a complement. It mixes geeky obsession with high production values to produce a tour-d-force of 80s nostalgia and personal accomplishment.
Well worth watching, even if you're unfamiliar with the 1980s, the Amiga or the original artwork.
- Lev1a 4y agoAFAIK Ahoy has been pretty famous for his high production values using well-done research, slick graphics and nice animations for a number of years.
- FireInsight 4y agoAhoy is a very high quality channel! Highly recommend watching the video about Polybius, and the one about the first video game.
- nickt 4y agoStu makes great videos - truly the David Attenborough of video game history. In case you've missed it, he has some other channels, including the brilliant DrinksAhoy [1], Krush Dev Diary [2] and music on Bandcamp [3] [1] https://www.youtube.com/@DrinksAhoy https://www.youtube.com/@DrinksAhoy [2] https://www.youtube.com/@krush8272/featured https://www.youtube.com/@krush8272/featured [3] https://xahoy.bandcamp.com/album/four-byte-burger https://xahoy.bandcamp.com/album/four-byte-burger
- sph 4y agoA similar channel in style, thoroughness and love for the 80s and 90s is Posy. https://youtube.com/@PosyMusic https://youtube.com/@PosyMusic Recommended if you want to see deep, geeky and fun explorations of the world of liquid crystal displays, Hi-Fi stereos and anything that tickles his fancy. A good starting point: "Segmented Displays" — https://youtu.be/RTB5XhjbgZA https://youtu.be/RTB5XhjbgZA
