Podcast Episode 022 - The Galaxy Game

 

We go
over the Galaxy Game. It was one of the first commercial attempts to bring
video games to market. Though it was unable to get the venture capital needed
to get off the ground, the two prototypes that were created proved that there
was a market for video games.
