Wow, episode 90. Those numbers are getting bigger, huh? I mean yeah if I were doing this series weekly we'd be at like 160 now, but still.

Game Boy Works is still in a holding pattern while I try to get my hands on the original box to Fish Dude, which is about five GBW episodes away... but I did want to throw together a quick episode before heading back to the Super NES library. I say "quick," but this is 10 minutes (despite it being about an obscure Game Boy import hardly anyone has ever played). Clearly I have no idea what words even mean.

Lunar Lander retrospective: Mooning over a classic | Game Boy Works #090

A real blast(-off) from the past here, with Pack-In Video's oddball rendition of classic computer simulation Lunar Lander... or more likely Atari's arcade rendition of the concept. There has never been another adaptation of Lunar Lander quite like this before, though... especially the parts where you dodge aliens while plundering the moon's resources.
