Yes, once again, I'm bringing this game title, Spelunker.
We are planning to have an interview with the legendary person, Mr. Tim Martin and possiblely with 2 more people. If you ever have any requests for interview contents, pls post here. Thank you!
Yay for Mr. Martin!

That's great! Congratulations! I wonder if Mr. Martin has continued to create music for games, or does he still work in the video game industry? I could not find much information regarding this.

Here is a wiki article detailing some history about their first company

For Spelunker, Tim Martin was responsible for "game logic", Cash Foley developed the graphic engine & Game Level Editor, and Robert Barber was the graphic designer & Level Editor.

While I did play some Atari games as a kid, I'm not familiar enough to suggest any good interview questions...

Perhaps it'd be most interesting to have the questions be entirely from your Japanese-gamer perspective. =)

Thanks for the comments and heads up , gamemusicfreak and Carl!
Yeah... that's what i thought... the Atari and NES were such different, but Tim Martin is really somebody among us, so I might get some Spelunker fans in JP to have this interview and let it out in Japan and overaseas as well. Mr Tim Martin was very nice to reply to my Spelunker video, and I was dancing all day after that.

Loved this game... so hard but I beat it eventually. I LOVED the main theme and sang it for years after. Who composed this?

[CocoeBiz]

Hello walzmusic,

Mr. Tim Martin also composed the Theme (the opening title music, right? )and Ending music according to him, this fact actually made me to talk to him! :)
If you have any thoughts, please post here or even send me the message.
The theme music will live forever! yay!

[walzmusic]

COOL! Yes I used to hum this song and go play it on the piano - one of the very songs that made me decide to compose for games.
