Chris James worked at Thorn EMI, where he was a programmer and
later a project manager. Later he founded James Software, which
specialized in game conversions to various computer platforms. His
long list of Atari game credits includes Darts, Tank Commander, and
several jigsaw puzzle games such as European Scene Jigsaw Puzzles
and Hickory Dickory Dock.
He is also the husband of Hanan Samara, whom I interviewed
previously, and whom you can hear providing color commentary in the
background from time to time.
This interview took place on November 13, 2017.
Teaser quote: "We didn't feel like we were sort of on a
