Trailer Trash
Depending on the click journey you have embarked on to get here, you may have already come across Damien. In a nutshell we visited him a couple of months ago when we were last in the U.S of Ace. He helped us to time travel back to the ’80s by restoring some old film reels.…

The Cyberia Lowdown
Welcome all Cyber Heads! This is the official launch of a first-of-its-kind lost media project created by two brothers drunk on ’80s nostalgia. Here’s the lowdown: Way back in 1988, an ambitious company called Give Me Head Productions began working out of a Silicon Valley office space over on the B-movie side of town. Headed…

The Day We Dug Up a Treasure Trove [VHS #1]
After sorting through our first chapter of material and making double sure that we had rescued everything possible, we decided to revisit the Silicon Valley office to see if we could find anything else related to Give Me Head Productions and/or the Cyberia project. We knew there had to be more material in that cold,…

Slangder #5: What is a Warbot? [With Footage]
A warbot is the name given to AI-charged mercenaries. They are partly constructed from explosive liquid nitrogen so that, as and when they are killed, they blow up everything and everyone within a square mile radius. Warbots don’t care which team they are on. However, they are fiercely loyal to their employers providing they regularly…

The Shadowy Cyberia Council
In the grand scheme of things, we’re not sure where to place the Cyberia Council. Although it saw a fair bit of visual development in the early days (which explains why it’s all nice and shiny), it didn’t have much of a narrative purpose, not helped by the fact that there are no playable characters…

Giddy Ferret Paw the Musical Mental Case [With Live Footage]
Giddy Ferret Paw isn’t the real birth name of this funky eccentric; Sidney Swarbrick is. But we’ll honour using it anyway. As we can all see from these photographs, Giddy is an interesting character who, by the grace of fifty pagan gods, somehow ended up working for Give Me Head Productions. He was the only employee…

Cyberia Location #4 Dmitry’s Luxury Arcade of the Future
Another Forgotten Genius When rummaging around the files, we were thrilled to find one which had a number of fantastic images but little in the way of detail. The illustration style also doesn’t look like any other style we have come across thus far. It is reminiscent of the original Tron movie which all self-respecting…

Cyberia Collectors’ Card #50 Mr Kazuki
And finally we arrive at the last collectors’ card. Mr Arthur Kazuki is the only person in Cyberia who lived during the Anal-World times. He is one of the founding fathers of SKARS Corp which, as we now know, was a completely different corporation back in the day. Something similar to the British NHS but…

Give Me Head Productions Part #3 [August + September]
What began as one man’s battle cry of ambition ended as a whimper of bewilderment by the very same man. What’s even worse is that it was less than five months between the two. If we return to that first ever phone call between CEO Cassidy and best buddy Charlie Ryba, hit the pause button…

Cyberia Collectors’ Card #49 McPervis
“Stuff.” –McPervis District: Greaser Suburbs (maybe…) Occupation: This is the penultimate playable character in this collection. And just like Skidz, there’s nothing much to tell you. We suspect that McPervis was going to be a member of the greaser gang alongside Barry X et al. He probably loved muscle cars, drinking turnip cider, beating up…
