Hello Patrons!
Here is the latest episode of The Gaming Historian, all about Awesome Possum!
Why on earth did I make a video about Awesome Possum??
It actually started with the court case. In 1996, Tengen / Atari Games / Time Warner were sued by an art teacher who claimed he had come up with the idea for Awesome Possum. My initial plan was to just talk about the game briefly and the court case. But after interviewing the creator, Richard Seaborne, the story became much bigger and needed more context.
So what would have been a 5-10 minute video turned into a 20 minute video!
I had a lot of fun creating this. Appreciate any feedback. Thanks!
