The Video Game Newsroom Time Machine is a weekly retro gaming podcast in which we travel back in time to see what was making headlines 40, 30, and 20 years ago in the arcade, video game, and computer gaming business and interview industry veterans. 

We try to put those events into historical context to understand how the industry of today came to be. 

It's fun and educational! (in case you need to justify listening to it to a significant other)

Apr 5, 2022

Few game studios of the 80s and 90s tackled a wider set of genres with as much success and innovative spirit as Dynamix. Co-founder Damon Slye walks us through the company's amazing history, the life of a developer, the evolution of 3D technology, relationships with publishers, and how do you make Karl's favorite game of all time, Project Firestart.

Recorded August and September 2021.
