Interview with Hal Barwood - creator of Fate of Atlantis

I had to shorten the subject to fit, but it should be something like - Interview with Hal Barwood - creator of "Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis" - to be correct. I was lucky enought to get an interview with one of the best game creators out there, and figured I had to ask some questions about his game-creating-start with "Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis", one of my best game memories from my days at the Amiga 500! One disk station DF0: and 11 disks with pure adventure was certainly worth it! If you haven't played this game, DO run over to Steam : http://store.steampowered.com/app/6010/?snr=1_4_4__13 and buy it! If you want to read the full interview (and also see a great review of Indiana Jones...", made by “The Final Highlander” on youtube), please visit my blog at : http://system-log.com/?p=1498

At the point where Fate of Atlantis was released I had moved from the Amiga to the PC. I played a lot of graphical adventures with Scumm back in those days. This was one of the best ever made.
