Steve Cartwright

Excerpt From Classic Gaming Expo...

“One of the many superstar game designers who helped bring Activision into the spotlight in the early 1980's, Cartwright's resume of accomplishments is a long and distinguished one.  Barnstorming, Frostbite, MegaMania, Plaque Attack and SeaQuest were all hit titles which he designed for the Atari VCS.  For the Commodore C-64 computer, he designed and produced a licensed home version of the blockbuster movie Aliens, which was the first game to sport digitized cut-scenes in a home game.  He followed those titles up with a pair of well-received now-classic games -- Hacker and Hacker II.

 …He joined Electronic Arts in 1992, where he first helped revive the NBA LIVE product line, and then took the struggling PGA TOUR line to multi-million unit success with the addition of Pebble Beach and Tiger Woods.  

In 2002, he joined Glu Mobile where he designed or produced many of the company's top sellers -- including Deer Hunter, Bush vs. Kerry Boxing, DRIV3R, Popcap’s Zuma and Insaniquarium, and PlayFirst’s Diner Dash.

Following Glu Mobile, Cartwright spent 2 years as Executive Producer at TAG Networks -- a true on-demand television network that brings high-quality casual games to broad television audiences.”

2007 was an interesting time as I spent 6 months developing a children's MMO - doing all the design, as well as client & server side programming. Although this project remains under wraps, I hope to reveal it in the near future.

Recently I was fortunate to join up with legendary designer John Romero and a group of unusually talented engineers, artists, producers, writers, and designers on a project that will set new standards in online entertainment!
