You could even say that games are many media, because today’s triple-A games, multiplayer games, mobile games, they’re all very different. Our subject today is kind of different media, and games being one. Mechner: Yeah, Broderbund published Prince of Persia. When Karateka and Prince of Persia came out, they were pretty breakthrough titles in terms of visual and story.

Markus: The medium was in a place where you could put your own titles out there and not look completely outdated. But the games I was making in assembly language, in high resolution, there wasn’t that much of a difference between my games and the published games, which at the time you bought on a floppy disc in a ziplock bag. Anybody could see that a kid had made it. Star Wars came out in 1976, and when I tried to make my little Super 8 movie, obviously it wasn’t as good as Star Wars. And the industry was so young that there wasn’t that much of a gap. Creating that fantasy in a world that people would hear about and play. What was so great about the Apple computer was it put into my hands the power to make a game, which was like an interactive story. If the Apple II hadn’t come along when it did, or if I’d been born 10 years earlier, I probably would have tried to be a comic book artist or a film director. I was also kind of torn between thinking, “Should I keep making games?” Because I also loved movies. Although most of the stuff I’d done hadn’t been published. By then I considered myself a veteran of the industry at age 21. And so Prince of Persia was my next project after Karateka. Mechner: Yeah, they came out about the same time. Markus: Konami had Yie Ar Kung Fu a very long time ago. There was Swashbuckler?Ībove: Prince of Persia: Sands of Time had wall running. I don’t even know if there were fighting games at the time. It was a fighting game, a 2D side-scrolling fighting game.

That was the inspiration for my next game, Karateka. Choplifter told a story, and at the end it said “The End.”

All of that was based on the business model of putting quarters into machines. Asteroids, Space Invaders, you had three lives and you had to get a high score. It was the first game I’d played that told a story. Anybody here remember Choplifter? This blew my mind in 1982. This year the public likes a different thing.” He sent me a copy of Choplifter. “It’s well-programmed, but the game industry has moved on. He said, “Hey, I got your game.” I’d mailed it to them on a floppy disc. I got a phone call while I’m lying in my college dorm room. Markus: Broderbund was a big at the time. All these game-makers and publishers were just names I’d seen in magazines, or on the title screen of a game. This was my first real contact with the game industry. Broderbund’s founder, Doug Carlston, called me. I sent it to Broderbund, my favorite publisher. I spent my first year in college making a game called Death Bounce, which was like Asteroids, but just different enough that I thought I wouldn’t get sued. We couldn’t publish copies of their games. I worked hard on them - I worked for a whole year on an Asteroids clone, trying to make it as much like the arcade version as possible - but then Atari told publishers we couldn’t do that. I made a ton of games that were never published. I started making games, first in BASIC, and then in assembly language. Since I was in high school, when I got my first Apple II computer in 1979. But like most of us, by the time Prince of Persia was published I’d been making games for 10 years. Mechner: Yesterday, after dinner, I was talking with Rami Ismail about how people only see the published, successful games on our resumes. Did you start with games, or did you start thinking about other things before you worked on Prince of Persia? 30 years ago I was at my Apple II trying to get to alpha. Jordan Mechner: Yes, this is the 30th anniversary year of the original Apple II Prince of Persia. Have fun and show this site to your friends.Fred Markus: It’s been 30 years, right?
