In the beginning there was a black void. And out the the void came a seemingly insignificant small blue and green planet full of ape-like inhabitants. Graduating from sticks and stones to transistors and microchips, these apes sought the constant evolution of technology in greater attempts to remain entertained. Then, on a cloudy Wednesday, the computer was born.
While it was a massive technological feat to “compute” data, the apes soon grew weary of punch cards and tubes. The notion that the glorious computer could be entertaining sprung up, and the apes redirected their efforts to strive to be enter- trained in new and original ways.
Soon the smartest and boldest of the apes started to develop games entirely based on computers to entertain the other apes with bright lights, loud 8-bit sounds and gripping text-based story-lines. But all of the lights and sounds began to blur into each other. No single game stood out from the others. And then, from the Sea of Mediocrity, came Powderkeg Entertainment...
