Manoau2002 Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 (edited) Matt Patrol - Beginner - Ends Nov. 25 at 8:00 am EST Comments from the Original Programmer (Matt Householder) about this game: "I'm the guy who did the original Moon/Matt Patrol for ColecoVision in 1984. It was canceled by Atarisoft 30 years ago just as I was finishing it up and was about to do the title screen. I still have my original design/development notes - including my artwork and code. I looked through them today and found the final approved box design and manual mark-up. I also found my title screen art for CV Joust. I could code changes/improvements to CV Moon Patrol. Anybody care? Any questions?" "I made several customized copies of "Matt Patrol" for Atari colleagues - in particular - Helyett, who was in QA and had tested it for a month straight, and Selma, who was in marketing. I remember I gave Helyett her copy, but Selma had been canned already. So, I kept that one (and I still have it). I must have burned some customized copies for my fellow ColecoVision programmers -- like Larry Clague, Mike Hendricks, Dave Cartt, and Jim Eisenstein. But I don't recall exactly who got one. The bra UFOs were just silliness. I had been a DEVO fan since 1978, hence the "energy domes"."
