If the piece of content ends while tuned in to this channel.
Navigator: That's the end of this piece of content. Protocoller: Give an outro to this piece of content. Performer: I guess I can, you were listening to an excerpt of 'Get Lamp', a documentary about text adventures and interactive fiction filmed by computer historian Jason Scott. More than 80 interaction fiction developers were interviewed in order to complete it. Performer (while volume is slowly turned down): 'Get Lamp' is a documentary that offers far more than a mere exploration of the past; it is a time capsule that transports us to the birth of an era that has shaped modern storytelling and gaming. It delves into the history of interactive fiction, revealing the origins of text-based adventure games that have left an indelible mark on the world of technology and creativity. Protocoller: I don't hear you very well, Protocol demands a Microphone Check. Navigator: Agreed Protocoller. Redirecting to Microphone Protocol.
