Hello! Thanks for joining me in this episode all about Squeeze Box by U.S. Games. As I type this I am realizing that I made a huge mistake in the show, something I could have fixed if I looked at my own previous research. What a maroon! Hopefully I'll remember to correct it in the next episode. Which will be about Miner 2049er and Miner 2049er Vol. 2, both by Tigervision. I will also be talking about the Atari 8 bit game that spawned these two cartridges, as well as its creator, Bill Hogue, who I believe was 20 when he created the game. When I was 20 I was eating at White Castle three times a week. Oh well. If you have feedback for Miners 2049er, please send it to me at 2600gamebygame@gmail.com by EOD May 27th. Hopefully I can keep this streak going! Thank you all for listening, I am so glad you are here.
