UMBCast 056 - Indianapolis 500: The Simulation




The Upper Memory Block show

Summary: In episode 56, we discuss the 1989 Papyrus Design Group racing sim, Indianapolis 500: The Simulation. First though, we go through quite a few emails covering your thoughts on the "Sierra Revival" that I talked about on the last episode, including a link to Brano's blog post where he goes into more detail on his thoughts. We then get into the main topic, Indianapolis 500: The Simulation. We discuss all the usual suspects including gameplay, dev story and tech focus. Sadly, there's nowhere to legally get the game in digital form, but if you're interested in the most current racing game from the developer, check out http://www.iracing.com/. Next time, I'll be heading back to Bullfrog land with another simulation, Theme Hospital.
