		Quite a few of those were some of my favorites - Burgertime, Carnival, Happy Trails, Miner 2049er, Mouse Trap, Robotank, Seaquest, Star Raiders and especially Vanguard (loved the old space shooters like Vanguard and Scramble).

		You could class his next game, Manic Miner (1983) as an original or THE original platform game but the Americans got there just before with Miner 2049er on various systems.
		This was the groundwork for Manic and adding some very British humor into the blend plus some real good design work made the game the biggest title that year.
		He's still mad and put some of the legendary stories straight (No, he never gutted fish for a living) and keeps his past behind him only popping up sometimes to give interviews.
