Atari Legend | Grandad and the Quest for the Holey Vest - The games of Ian Scott documentary @AtariLegend | Uploaded August 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Success stories on the Atari ST are rare. But 18 year old bedroom coder Ian Scott managed to do it. In 1992 he released his STOS graphic adventure Grandad and the Quest for the Holey Vest and it turned into an absolute cult classic. This is his story ... and so much more.
