podcast, episode number 184, your weekly dose of retro gaming and technology news with me, Dan Wood. And me, Ravi Abbott. And is that it? Yeah, that's it. It's just us two today, Dan. It's been a while, hasn't it? Yeah, like old school today, isn't it? Yeah, yeah. Last week, we had more people in the studio than we had microphones. We had to double up last week. Oh, God, yeah. It was fun, though. Yeah, absolutely. But this week, a little bit more reserved because, let's be honest, this week's show is going to be all about the guest.

Yeah, because this guy is such an amazing developer, and it's Sean Southern.

Yeah.

Oh, my God. If you've played racing games on the Amiga or any of these old school systems, Sean would probably have part of them. You know, you remember the Lotus series? Oh my God, yes. But also Supercars. Do you remember Supercars? The above view on. That was a really good fun game.

Sean Southern was actually probably the best developer on that system. So it's going to be interesting to find out why he stuck to that, what was so endearing about it, and how he squeezed, like, so many good games out of a system that no one else really could. Well, you know that Magnetic Fields intro? Yeah. You used to see on games. For me, that was like a sign of quality. Yeah, you got that sound effect as well.
