Interview with Jim Meuer
Jim Meuer was the cool dude who created the original Baby Boomer game for Nintendo. I searched for him one day, and I saw a Jim Meuer that was involved with the US Congress, District 44, California and I am thinking "This couldn't be the same Jim could it?" so I put the thought to rest. Weeks later, I try again and I determine that this Jim Meuer was the same guy which made Baby Boomer. I e-mail him, and it was true! I think it's pretty cool how a Color Dreams worker is now involved in politics.
Jim Meuer :
Hi,
I worked at Color Dreams in the late 80's doing Baby Boomer and
designing
their development system for making games. Baby Boomer was the
original
test program that we used to make the development systems. They later
formed a Christian game company called Wisdom Tree and I worked on a
game
called Bible Buffet there also.
I don't have any of the old development stuff any more. Dan did
Hellraiser
I believe. The only people who would know more about the games and
development software are Vance and Dan at a company called StarDot.

Pictures from Jim's game, Baby Boomer. This fun little zapper game was one of the first games released by Color Dreams. In this fun game, you have to collect gold nuggets, shoot milk bottles, and shoot enemies. I wonder why you don't have to change diapers?
Anyway this game is a really fun and unique game. From start to end, you will have a great time with this title. Worth picking up if you see it sometime.
