Your playing Spiked 2.1 there, I never knew there was a 2.1, fancy uploading it to the garden's Spiked page?

Apparently:
"Spiked 2.1 is an update from Spiked 2.0. This update fixes two major bugs
(once in a while, the game would up and quit, or freeze between matches).
The game can now be played in 256, thousands, or millions of colors. There
are new graphics, snappier event processing, and the new rockyspiker item.
Overall, the game is more stable."

I've found the archive on a few sites. I will upload when I get home.

Thats ace, cheers.

Youtube definitely lacks footage of a lot of older mac exclusives, when people search for an old game they used to play I should think youtube is one of the first places they would look after a general query into a search engine, its certainly where I often look.

The difficulty is capturing the footage, VGA capture devices are expensive and there is a lot emulators cant do. I would love there to be gameplay footage of Greebles but sheepshaver just cant run it fast enough.

I've never played Greebles before, so I thought the demo would be ok. Little bit frustrating sometimes, but it made it further than i did.

Just uploading the vid now, check my channel(should be there in 20 minutes). Can you comment if it's running at the correct speed?

Also, another method for recording is by live streaming google+ hangouts, while screen sharing.

The audio gets a bit out of sync, and the music isn't working properly. What are you running it on and how are you capturing it?
I use screenflow on OSX to record sheepshaver when im capturing stuff for youtube

(in terms of Greebles gameplay, switching the difficulty to easy will stop you from squashing yourself with blocks, definitely a must for newcomers. you'll get a lot further. Having the other players under CPU is helpful too)

i'm doing the same as you. sheepshaver+9.0.4, recording with screen flow.
I didn't notice the audio lag until you mentioned it. I've had problems previously too. Not sure if it's my hackintosh Realtek HDA kexts or something else...

One suggestion is that it might be youtube's conversion process. I export it to a .mov at double the original resolution to keep the visual quality decent and i'm warned when i'm uploading in that format that there may be audio sync issues

I have noticed some lag when recording footage from sheepshaver, that is why I have been using Basilisk.
