I'm not sure why but that is one of the funniest things I've ever seen on the internet.

Spent years playing this game. It is the closest thing I've seen to real time chess. Also excellent soundtrack that sets the mood.

EDIT: whoops I thought this was moonbase commander, another NASA sponsored game from another time.

That would describe Crypt of the NecroDancer.

Wow, I can see how many people would find this to be a very boring game but it looks amazing to me. Sad that I missed its golden age.
