Prince of Persia

I first played the jumping and parrying to avoid death and find your love video game Prince of Persia on an IBM 386 at a friend’s house. I never saved the princess, though I did wall-run to the end of a later version called The Sands of Time.

I’ll be playing the original, maybe SDL (source code) or JS versions, and also the latest Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown: 1

Jordan Mechner, the original game’s creator, has made an illustrated book about the making of the game which has been a joy to read, like most books that illuminate the creative process.

Peace out for now.
