RickR Posted April 16, 2021 Report Share Posted April 16, 2021 Looks like "Entombed". Although I'm not sure I know of the "in the news" reference. nosweargamer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is correct! So in September of 2019 I posted a gameplay video of the game as seen below. Usually my gameplay video get around 200-300 views. But this one quickly passed 1,000 views, which caught me off guard. It turns out that around the same time, the BBC posted an article about the game and how programmers were trying to figure out the ingenious way the game works. Today, it's one of my more popular video with over 7,000 views, all thanks to a BBC article that didn't even link the video. Here's the article: https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20190919-the-maze-puzzle-hidden-within-an-early-video-game RickR 1 Quote The No Swear Gamer on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChtJuo040EOCTVziObIgVcg Host of The Atari 7800 Game by Game Podcast on iTunes, Stitcher and YouTube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted April 16, 2021 Report Share Posted April 16, 2021 Oh! I guess I kind of do vaguely remember that. You know, I'm positive I have written a lot of code when I was younger that worked brilliantly, but I'd be unable to figure out or recreate now. That game is fun at first, but gets impossible pretty quick. Here's the next one for you all: Platform: 2600 nosweargamer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
