A strange little side quest
The fun part of looking behind Earn to Die 2012: Part is seeing how many older ideas are still alive in modern play. A top Formula 1 tyre stop can happen in under two seconds; McLaren set a 1.80-second pit-stop record. And then there is this: Space Invaders, released in 1978, helped push video games into mainstream popular culture. That is the kind of background detail that makes another attempt at Earn to Die 2012: Part feel a bit more connected to the history of play.
