M.D.K.

!!!Newsflash!!!

A huge City Minecrawler is
headed straight for
the gaming community of
DOS Game Club, DGC

And you are Kurt Hectic, janitor on board the space station Jim Dandy and Earth's only hope. So get into your "Doctor Hawkins' Amazing Coil Suit" and strap on your "Doctor Hawkins' Incredible Ribbon Chute" and start skydiving down towards the planet, evading incoming missiles and start kicking some alien rear ends, not least thanks to the world's smallest nuclear explosion.

Is Shiny Entertainment's 1997 DOS classic still worth a play today? What does M.D.K. stand for? Who is Max? What is a Streamrider? And what does that all have to do with a handful of tiny villages in England and Scotland? Find out the answers to all of these questions (and more) in this episode.

Joining hosts Martijn ("Tijn") and Florian ("rnlf") are Richard ("Pix"), who's been on the show so often, he actually started helping us out with getting the show produced now (thank you so much!), and Nick ("Martli"), who is entirely new to the show and is joining us all the way from New Zealand.

Once again, no voice message this time. What's wrong with all of you?

Enjoy!
