Thanks to the wonders of
MAME I played
one of my favourite obscure arcade games,
Off
the Wall. It's a 1991 Atari title that's highly pleasing with
impressionist graphics, clever gameplay, and fantastic music produced
on the YM2151
FM synthesis chip. I made a small sample of the music; listen to
the Ogg.
