Everything I Learned about Computer Games I Didn't Learn at Yale
In 1976, I took the only computer course I would ever take. I got a “D,” the worst grade I would ever get.
Five years later, I was making my living writing home computer games, and would continue to do so for the next nine years.
You understand –– my story begins before the Internet, before Windows, before Apple.

These are my memories... Growing up in a world with three TV channels and paper mail... My years writing some of the earliest 8-bit games (CRISIS MOUNTAIN, DINO EGGS, SHORT CIRCUIT)... And now reviving my best-selling game as DINO EGGS: REBIRTH.
