8 Bit Live
May 12, 2026
I am actually still in awe at this discovery tonight. I was just doing some backlink checking on “ffoncrack.com” when a link to Nuklear Power appeared and got me excited. Six or so weeks ago, I found stored Outlook exports that I had restored and stumbled acrosssome emails from a discussion thread I vaguely remembered. I had originally come across it sometime after ffoncrack.com went down — I remembered posting in it but couldn’t recall all the details. I gave up, assuming it was gone. Wayback didn’t have that link, sadly.
However, tonight I learned the dead thread was archived in Wayback in 2021, and I was able to reconstruct it — which is what you see here.
I don’t think I ever publicly explained what happened to the site. At the time, RTV King — who was editing the movies — got wayyyy into SWG and never got around to finishing them. We had some good footage from what I recall. We did do that skit where we walked into a house and took items, and we filmed an industrial plant to serve as the Shinra building in Midgar. We had Barret played by someone who was, let’s say, not exactly the casting director’s first choice — which was entirely the point.
It’s sad it never came to fruition, and I believe RTV lost the original footage. But it was also a case of growing up. When I read this thread, I was squarely in the middle of the toughest semester of my college career. I was in a serious relationship at the time, which took up more of my attention. And honestly, I was thinking about post-college life and was kind of embarrassed about how this stuff might affect job prospects — different world than now, haha.
Consider this my long-overdue explanation to the forum members I lost contact with during that time. Surely you understand now, but at the time I felt a little guilty and like I had let some people down.
