Russ Wetmore: Preppie!, Sea Dragon, Homepak
\\nRuss Wetmore started at Adventure International, where he worked with Scott Adams on Savage Island Part II. He then went on to program Preppie!, Preppie! II, and Sea Dragon - all of which were published by Adventure International - and Homepak business software, which was published by Batteries Included.
\\nThis interview took place on September 24, 2015, and then a little bit more on January 4, 2016.\\xa0
\\nAfter the main interview took place, Russ sent me the source code for Preppie!, Preppie! II, and Sea Dragon, plus an demonstration disk of an unfinished Atari game called Lulu. I successfully archived all of those disks and have posted them to archive.org. I also made a YouTube video of the Lulu demo. Links are below.

\\nTeaser quote:
\\n\\u201cI actually only spent about 18 months writing those three games, and I probably would have done them in much sooner time, but I was 23 and lazy.\\u201d
