Ep. 18: The Lost Power-Up Baseball with Brian Smolik
We uncover lost stories of the never released Power-Up Baseball, sometimes referred to as \u201cMLB Jam,\u201d with then programmer, now arcade game developer, Brian Smolik. Back in those days, Smolik lived the life only a young 25 year old could: programming and testing until 6 a.m. while riding a sugar high brought on by giant Slurpees. This breakneck paced work cycle was mirrored in the sweat inducing, get a running start for you pitch, maybe even break your hand on the screen style of gameplay involved in Power-Up Baseball.
