A strange little side quest
Between one round of Count Downula and the next, this is worth knowing: Sonic the Hedgehog launched in 1991 and turned speed itself into a defining platform-game mechanic. There is another connection worth keeping in the same mental pocket: Archery first appeared at the Olympic Games in 1900 and returned permanently to the programme in 1972 after a long absence. The screen is modern; the urge to test skill, pattern and timing definitely is not.
