In this livestream, I unbox and play the first boxed software for the MEGA65, Hibernated 1 the Director's Cut. Available for almost every retro computer imaginable via the Z-Machine interpreter, Hibernated 1 takes you back to the days when text adventures used the high-speed graphics processors of the mind. During this live stream, I will unbox the physical copy, see what's inside, and play the game for the first time (with the help of the chat room). Along the way, I'll map out my journey. #mega65 #hibernated #textadventure Companion Blog Post: https://www.retrocombs.com/hibernated1 Important Links (Amazon Affiliate Links): Chat with Ben Jordan and Bil Herd - • Retrocomputing with retroCombs Hibernated 1 - https://8bitgames.itch.io/hibernated1 Poly Play Boxed Set - https://www.polyplay.xyz/Hibernated-1...

Time Codes: Coming Soon From The Website: Have you ever dreamed about a journey far beyond the known regions of the universe? Close to Alpha Centauri, Olivia Lund is on the trail of one of mankind's greatest secrets and a thousand-year-old mystery. After nearly 20 years in hyper-sleep, she wakes up alone on her stranded ship, the Polaris-7. The artificial intelligence Io seems to be her only remaining friend now. Hibernated 1 - This Place is Death (Director's Cut) is an Infocom style interactive fiction game. It's a complete rewrite of the classic, award-winning Hibernated game using Infocom's Z-machine standard, with tons of additional narrative content and riddles. If Infocom had been asked to recreate the classic Hibernated, the Director's Cut would have been the outcome. SYSTEMS The game is available for Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC and PCW, Spectrum +3, Spectrum Next, Commodore Amiga, Atari 8-bit, Atari ST, MS-DOS, Apple 2, BBC Micro, Acorn Electron, Commodore 128, Mega65, MSX 1 and MSX 2, Oric, Commodore Plus/4, TI99/4a, Commodore VIC-20, Commodore PET, SAM Coupé, TRS CoCo, TRS-80 Model III, TRS-80 Model 4, Osborne 1, Kaypro II, Kaypro 4, DEC Rainbow 100, Dragon64, classic Macintosh and modern PC. In addition, there are z3 and z5 files provided, for playing the game in your Z-machine interpreter of choice. Hibernated 1 Director's Cut is following the path of some of the most iconic interactive fiction releases from the 80s and early 90s, trying to resemble a retro look and feel but it also aims to meet modern era expectations. There are no dead ends and the difficulty level is moderate. Generally, it's more about experiencing a story rather than drowning the player in frustration.
