喬瑟夫·華倫·羅賓奈特二世(英語:Joseph Warren Robinett, Jr.,1951年—)[1]是一位美國[2]互動式電腦軟件設計師,他的知名作是一款雅達利2600遊戲《魔幻歷險》——電子遊戲歷史上第一個動作冒險遊戲[3]。羅賓奈特也是軟件公司樂寧公司的創辦人[1],他為該公司開發了兩款學習軟件《Rocky's Boots》[4]和《Robot Odyssey》兩款遊戲。近期他參與了虛擬現實技術的開發。
Robinett graduated in 1974 with a B.A. from Rice University,[1] with a major in "Computer Applications to Language and Art".[1][5] After graduating from Rice University, he was a Fortran programmer for Western Geophysical in Houston, Texas.[5] He received an M.S. from University of California, Berkeley in 1976, and went to work at Atari, Inc. in November 1977.[1][5]
早年與雅達利時期
華倫·羅賓奈特出生於1951年[1]。1974年,他畢業於萊斯大學,之後於1977年11月進入電腦公司雅達利工作,第一個作品是雅達利2600遊戲《軌道賽車》(1978年)[1][6]。在參觀史丹福大學智慧實驗室時玩過文字冒險遊戲《巨洞冒險》後,羅賓奈特認為,將其製作成一款圖像遊戲「會是一件很酷的事」[5]。他於1978年5月至6月間使用惠普1611A微處理器電腦開始設計《巨洞冒險》的改良版《魔幻歷險》[7][8]。不過,《魔幻歷險》的檔案大小約為數百KB(千字節),而雅達利2600隻有4,096字節(約4KB)的唯讀記憶體(ROM),128字節的隨機存取存儲器(RAM)和1MHz(一兆赫茲)的6502處理器,連羅賓奈特的上司都認為不可能[1][9]。
However, with 128 bytes of RAM and 4096 bytes of ROM, Atari's Adventure was a much simpler program, and with only a joystick for input, the set of "commands" was necessarily brief.[5] Adventure was a hit upon its 1979 release, and eventually sold a million copies.[10]
Atari designers at the time were not given credit for their games, because Atari feared having to bargain with well-known designers.[10] In response to this, Robinett placed a hidden object in the game that would allow the player to reach a hidden screen which displayed the words "Created by Warren Robinett," hence creating one of the earliest known Easter eggs in a video game, and the first to which the name "Easter egg" was applied.[10][5]
Robinett then wrote the BASIC Programming cartridge, finishing both BASIC Programming and Adventure in June 1979, and quit Atari.[5]
樂寧公司與之後
He founded The Learning Company[1] in 1980, and worked on several educational games there, including Rocky's Boots and Robot Odyssey for the Apple II.[10] The Learning Company was acquired by Softkey in 1995 for US$606 million.[11]
He has since worked on virtual reality projects for NASA[5] and the University of North Carolina.[1]
In 2016, Robinett announced The Annotated Adventure, a book describing the design and implementation of Adventure for the Atari 2600.[12] As of December 2017, the book has not been published.
Robinett's Adventure Easter egg is a plot element in the 2011 novel and 2018 film Ready Player One.
