    Last night on my Youtube series Old Games on a Thursday (Old GOAT) I continued my series of playing through Ultima IV: Quest of the Avatar for Sega Master System in its entirety.
     
    I made some solid progress in this one, but man I feel like I've got to get the lead out, given that the overworld started throwing Hydras and Liches at me! As one of my viewers mentioned in the chat, the game throws more difficult enemies at you in the overworld depending on total number of turns taken, not how powerful you are.
     
    I did make some solid progress in this chapter, described in the following spoiler tag (in case anyone cares about that!):
     

    I've got to keep moving forward to complete the Quest of the Avatar! Excelsior!

    A few years ago, my weekly retro gaming stream was called "Monday MAME" in which I played emulated arcade games on my arcade cabinet. Gradually, more and more I pivoted to playing non-arcade games: old consoles and computers, and eventually Mark W Plays Old Games on a Thursday (Old GOAT) was born.
     
    So Monday MAME as a regular weekly stream was retired. But on rare occasion, I revisit Monday MAME, and it feels like a special treat when I do so! So this week I did an old school Monday MAME and had a lot of fun. Below is the archived stream in which I played viewer-requested hidden gems such as ZooKeeper (never played that one before!) and Hippodrome, as well as some old classics of my own choosing such as Satan's Hollow, Space Invaders and Asteroids.

    I had such a blast last week, that I'm gonna do it again! Intellivision games on tonight's Old GOAT stream, including two games created by another retro gaming Youtuber, Brian of Brian's Man Cave!
    ETA is tonight (Dec. 14, 2023) at 8:30pm Eastern Time, but depending on how things go I may need to start a little late, at about 9:00pm Eastern instead.
