This was my attempt at a show that was part Mystery Science Theater 3000, part GameCenter CX (Japanese Retro Gaming Show), part Muppets...I guess.
I wanted to create a show where one lone robot, D-MA (Droid Minus Arms) plays these video games to power the spaceship he and his fellow crew members are aboard. D-MA is the only one that can control these bluetooth-style robot hands that can play said games.
The premise was D-MA would play, but would make snarky comments about the game itself or his playing abilities...or lack thereof.
As time went on, I found this kind of show was difficult to write for, and difficult to shoot, as I operated all the puppets. I had tried shorter videos and incorporate the other robots, and I ended up hurting my shoulder. No muscle tone, I suppose. Hard to hold up the puppets.
I did launch my separate GeekSpooge channel @geekspoogeshow and am doing weekly episodes there, as myself. No puppets. I didn't just want to leave this pilot episode on my hard drive, so....
