The sequel to the movie Memoirs of a Spectrum Addict started its way on Kickstarter.
I was a backer of the first campaign and we got a pretty neat look at the developer scene through interviews with many remarkable figures of those times. It wasn’t so much a historical documentary like the also awesome From Bedrooms to Billions, but more of a down-at-the-pub horizontal dissection of the scene, as each coder or artist chimes in on the topics being discussed.
The sheer amount of recorded material meant enough subjects were left uncovered as to warrant a sequel, with new interviews being conducted as well.
The focus will lie more on specific games, the Spectrum industry as a whole, the fans, and the current Spectrum scene—all with much more gameplay footage, which is indeed something I yearned for in the first movie. I kept pausing the video and googling who the people were—specifically which games they made, because I knew most of the games, but almost none of the developers. This will be a very welcome addition to make it friendlier to people who don’t already know who’s who in the Speccy world.
See? Much better to have these things together.
Watching the original, it was nice to put faces to the games of my childhood. Once you know the characters behind them, it’s even that much more fun to be part of the current retro scene that’s nicely alive around the ZX Spectrum Next. Who knows, you might as well trip on Facebook and smash into Simon Butler or Jim Bagley or even Rick Dickinson.
So I’m much looking forward to hearing more from these old-schoolers in Spectrum Addict: LOAD “FILM 2″. Give it your support on Kickstarter if you’re into it as well.
The Speculative Herald rated A Song for No Man’s Land, by Andy Remic, 4 out of 5 stars!
Legenda Kella
“Legenda Kella” to ni mniej ni więcej, tylko kawał fajnego fantasy. Autor potrafi nas przykuć do lektury, akcja jest wartka i pełna rożnych zwrotów akcji. Można powiedzieć, ze problemy wyrastają przed naszymi bohaterami jak grzyby po deszczu, lecz nasi bohaterowie to wytrawni grzybiarze.
