Jon Palace was what would best be described as a Game | |
Producer at Infocom. I was pointed to him by Steve | |
Meretzky, who stressed that Jon was the difference | |
between success and failure for many Infocom games, and | |
that the documentary had to have him in there, even if | |
his name wasn't on any of the boxes. I interviewed him in | |
Topsfield, MA, and we covered all manner of Infocom and | |
interactive fiction subjects. His trajectory was odd - | |
he'd worked as a book editor, and then wanted to get away | |
from where he was living, and he saw an ad for Infocom. | |
They were asking for an "Editor", which caught his eye, | |
and it was Mike Berlyn at Infocom who'd said the company | |
should have a proper wordsmith for their products, which | |
Jon was. | |
