Steve Cavin: Minotaur, Juggles\' House, Juggles\' Rainbow\\xa0

Steve Cavin started at Cromenco where he built computer kits and tested hardware. Later he wrote several programs for the Atari 8-bit computers: Minotaur, which was published by Atari Program Exchange \\u2014 it first appeared in the fall 1981 APX catalog; and the Atari versions of Juggles\' House and Juggles\' Rainbow, educational games published by The Learning Company. He also wrote \\u201cThe Five Letters", a hangman-style game that - so far - I haven\'t been able to find online.

This interview took place April 22, 2016.

"He looked at the screens and said, "Those don\'t look like the test programs that we normally use," and I said \'Well, they\'re not. I wrote my own. ... They\'re better than the other ones.\'"
