Cathryn Mataga (formerly William Mataga)〔〔 is a game programmer and founder of independent video game company Junglevision.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Junglevision: Company )〕 ==Biography== Mataga designed the game ''Shamus'' in 1982, which she wrote under the name William for the Atari 400 and 800 computers.〔 Much of the game's appeal was said to come from Mataga's sense of humor, such as creating a "grand rendition" of the Alfred Hitchcock theme song in the game's introduction. Steve Hales of Synapse Software, in an interview for the book ''Halcyon Days'', states that he and Mataga convinced company founder Ihor Wolosenko to get the company into interactive fiction.〔(Halcyon Days interview with Steve Hales )〕 Mataga developed an interactive fiction programming language known as BtZ (Better than Zork) for Brøderbund in the early 1980s. Mataga worked with Hales and poet Robert Pinsky on the interactive fiction game ''Mindwheel'' (1984).〔 Mataga was one of the programmers working at Stormfront Studios on the original ''Neverwinter Nights'' MMORPG.〔http://books.google.com/books?id=6dgTAQAAIAAJ&q=%22Cathryn+Mataga%22&dq=%22Cathryn+Mataga%22&hl=en&sa=X&ei=Gjp4U8rPDtahyATtx4LYCA&ved=0CD8Q6AEwBA〕 Don Daglow credits Mataga as one of the programmers who made Daglow's assertion come true that he could make the game a success.〔http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/102180/Column_Playing_Catch_Up_Stormfront_Studios_Don_Daglow.php〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cathryn Mataga」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
