We played the Pizza Hut games
Added 2023-04-13 12:01:00 +0000 UTCWe're taking a week off from the main Underunderstood feed, but we have a special bonus for you, patron.
You may recall a conversation in our last live show about a set of CD-ROM games made by Pizza Hut in the year 2001. We have those games, and John played them live in Discord on Tuesday night while Billy watched in horror.
Now, we must warn you: John is very bad at these games. Embarrassingly bad. But we at least got a feel for what these things looked like and how difficult it was to keep them running in Windows XP. (In case you're wondering, this all took place inside a UTM virtual machine on a Mac.)
We may continue to play old branded video games in future streams. We talk about a database of them at the end of this video; that Notion page is available here.
