#Herstory #UnDiaComoHoy #RobertaWilliams (La Verne, Estados Unidos, 16 de febrero de 1953) es una #diseñadoravideojuegos y #escritora estadounidense. Es cofundadora de Sierra On-Line, más tarde conocida como #SierraEntertainment, junto a Ken Williams. Es conocida principalmente por su trabajo pionero en las aventuras gráficas, donde algunos de los títulos más destacados son #MysteryHouse, la saga #KingsQuest y #Phantasmagoria.​ Es considerada una de las figuras fundamentales en la historia de los #videojuegos. En 1980 Ken Williams, su pareja, creó un motor gráfico para la computadora Apple II, a partir del cual juntos crearon la primera aventura gráfica de la historia: Mystery House, un éxito instantáneo. La primera aventura que Roberta diseñó después de Mystery House fue The Wizard and the Princess (1980), el primer juego de aventuras con gráficos en color, convirtiéndose en el juego número uno para el Apple II. Roberta y Ken fundaron la empresa On-Line Systems (1980), que luego se convirtió en Sierra On-Line (1982), y con ella fueron una de las fuerzas dominantes en la industria de los video juegos. Su siguiente creación fue King's Quest en 1984, siendo el primer videojuego en 3D. Desde su retiro en 1996, ella fue acreditada en más de 30 video juegos para computadoras, en los cuales en la mayoría ella fue quien los escribió y diseño, incluyendo Kings Quest y Phantasmagoria. Publicó su último videojuego en 1998 y abandonó Sierra en 1999. En 2011 trabajó como consultora creativa de Odd Manor, un videojuego para la red social Facebook desarrollado por uno de sus hijos. Tras este breve paréntesis, en la actualidad se dedica a viajar y a escribir. — Wikipedia #efemérides #cientificas #mujeresyciencia #womeninscience #tecnólogas #educarenigualdad #educarenfeminismo #schooloffeminism https://www.instagram.com/p/CaCEw76KEe8/?utm_medium=tumblr

Studies have shown that more women play video games than teenage boys but the culture of video games seems to be very anti-women and anti-girls. What makes it ironic is not just the fact that a huge percentage of video game players are women but also the fact that women have played a part creating the video gaming history that helped make today's video games possible. Sierra On-Line (later known as Sierre Entertainment) co-founder, Roberta Williams is considered one of the most influential PC game designers of the '80s and '90s and has been credited with creating the graphic adventure genre. Before becoming a game programmer Donna Bailey worked at General Motors training in assembly language programming and working on displays and microprocessor-based cruise control systems. When she joined Atari's coin-op division in 1980 she was the only woman. Carol Shaw is considered to have become the first woman video game designer in 1978 when she started working at Atari programming games for the company's VCS console. Afterwards she worked at Activision, a firm notable for being the first third-party video game software publisher where she made her best known game, River Raid. #carolshaw #donnabailey #robertawilliams #womenshistorymonth #videogames #atari #pepperspraymedia #sierraentertainment #centipede #generalmotors #activision #riverraid #microprocessor #videogameprogramming #kingsquest #pc #pcgamedesigners #videogamedesigners #girlsingaming #womeningaming #womenplayvideogames #sierraonline

Vai nella stanza dove lavora Don. Quando Don ti afferra, fai clic sullo sturalavandini.Quando lei glielo getta in faccia, corri nella sala della culla e vai dietro la porta.Quando Don entra, pugnalalo con la spilla di vetro che trovi per terra. Quando te ne vaicorri nella stanza buia e prendi il libro degli incantesimi dal tavolo. tira una martellata a don. scappa nella sala con il dipinto…

The True Story of Sierra On-Line | CryMor Sierra On-Line: The True Story 🔽 For over 30 years, Sierra was counted as one of the most prolific publishers and studios in gaming, but their story is a myth. Here's the truth. There is a historical precedence to stories about Sierra. In a lot of ways, these stories MUST tell three chapters. There is a mythological aspect to Sierra and the timing and influence they had, especially on the burgeoning home computer industry. The story follows a Rise And Fall dynamic, how Sierra saw that the end user--the gamer--would slip into the immersive graphics of a game more easily than the novelization of it, how many gamers would rage against them for their “dumbing down” of the interactive story and blame Sierra for poisoning the purity of the medium, how they would lift up and create the Adventure game model and then--as those Adventure games were replaced--so too would they be.

This week from the Museum collection, an item that's been especially sought after by Sierra fans in recent years - the King's Quest VI Lord of the Dead lithograph, a numbered edition of 450 signed by King's Quest creator Roberta Williams and Sierra artist John Shroades. The original price of the print in late 1992 was $300, which was advertised as a special discounted price from a "value" of $500, with the frame valued at $200. One year later in late 1993, the price was reduced to $99.95. Including the frame, the piece measures 33.5"x27". It is believed that toward the end of the run, the prints were sold without the frame. To celebrate this numbered lithograph, you can now register your print by visiting our Lord of the Dead registry. Original Sierra merchandise is a valuable part of preserving Sierra's history. To donate prints, posters, t-shirts, mugs, magazines, photos, other memorabilia, press items or Sierra historical items of any kind to the Sierra Museum and the Art of Sierra project, contact [email protected].

Ora torna fuori e cerca Cyrus che taglia la legna. Chiedigli dell’edificio che hai visto dalla finestra.

It only makes sense to debut the Sierra Museum with Sierra's co-founder, and the storyteller who started it all, Roberta Williams. Seen here in the early 80s in this rare photograph from Sierra's offices, Roberta is pictured demonstrating Sierra's collaboration with Jim Henson, an adaptation of The Dark Crystal, which was Sierra's final Hi-Res Adventure before the company gave birth to the graphic adventure genre with King's Quest, the original groundbreaking 3-D animated adventure game. To donate or loan historical photographs to the Sierra Museum and the Art of Sierra project, contact [email protected].
