#WozADay: Star Warrior (1981)

Many of these also have no gameplay footage anywhere else and are extremely difficult to find any documentation for!

Here’s the YouTube playlist if you want to start at the beginning (audio quality improves over the course of the series, and if you don’t like the commentary I’ve started uploading commentary-free versions as well): https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXVtlqgyC7v2ACowTpMXcMrLbfX1qdBHE

Here’s the link for the collection—what makes these special is that they’re uncracked “original” disk images, many of which had no widely-available preserved digital copies before being imaged, processed, and uploaded here: https://archive.org/details/wozaday?&sort=publicdate
