Being into game development for a long long time, Michael Hartlef started in 1984 at the early age of 18 with this great hobby called developing computer games on the Commodore C64. Following this machine, he worked on most well know computers like the Amiga 1000 and 500, the Atari 1024 STFm and of course various PC’s. These days it is mostly his IMac that he uses.

Besides working on games, Michael has developed various add ons for these tools like command library extensions and programming editors.
