The latest episode of 'Where Warlocks Stay up Late" dropped yesterday. Featuring yours truly. The interview goes pretty deep from growing up in Maine, working at Lotus, stories about L0pht you may not have heard before to getting fired from @stake. Probably the most personal interview I have ever given.

They seem to be wearing brown leather trench coats. Are these naughty space rogue Vulcans?

#Elite was the first of a long and proud line of #SpaceSimulators. #IanBell and #DavidBraben’s creation was the main source of inspiration for games such as #Echelon, #SpaceRogue, #MicrosoftSpaceSimulator and #Freelancer.

It established 3 big staples of modern #GameDevelopment:The #OpenWorld format, #WireFrame #3DGraphics, and procedurally generated levels. #EliteDangerous

Remembering ‘Elite’, the Most Important Game of the Early 80s

I've been longing for some #Oldschool entertainment recently but I'm the picky type when it comes to #Computergames - and so I was happy to re-discover #Starflight for the #Commodore64 - a game that was released when I had already switched to the #PC and only knew it from watching friends play it.

There are a two more C64 titles I've got on the list: #SpaceRogue and #SentinelWorlds but for now it's my turn to try and boldly go where no one has gone before ...

On #L0pht (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L0pht) and how #SpaceRogue ended up joining it in #Boston:
