I just finished watching the #GDC post-mortem talk by John Salwitz for #Paperboy, which was pretty interesting, but what had me laughing was the video he showed of #RandomEncounters' "Paperboy - The Musical": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0aoYBZJ1ZbA

Anyway, if you also enjoy talks / presentations by classic #videoGame developers, then I highly recommend the #GameDevelopersConference #ClassicGamePostMortem series, including the aforementioned one for the Paperboy #arcade game: https://youtu.be/MREsJsRZqu0

Those who have played and/or love the #OregonTrail, might also enjoy watching the #ClassicGamePostMortem about it as given by one of its creators, #DonRawitz, during the #GameDevelopersConference of #2017: https://youtu.be/vdGNFhKhoKY

It discusses both the #boardGame and #mainframe origins (if my memory serves me well).
