The greatest lie of the information age is that ‘the internet never forgets’ – it has a memory like a sieve, and we’re losing games every second, along with people’s records of them. The Lost Histories Jam on Itch (run by “Coleo Kin”) is about preserving the little things that nobody paid much attention to. A collection of stories, zines, interactive essays and even an album telling the tales nobody else did. There’s a Let’s Play of Catz 5, a brief history of ‘perverted’ Dragon Warrior hacks, the history of intentionally awful Mario fan-games and even an RPG Maker community dictionary from TheCatamites.
