Module Information |
Frostbite is one of the few games from Activision that does not stop at a certain score. After 1.000.000 points the score is reset to zero and the game continues. The WIP (Work in process) Version of Frostbite was called "Iceman". The found prototype has no major differences to the later released "Frostbite" game. It was labeled with "Activision Inc (C) Iceman TM Confidential 7/27/83" |
Company Information |
Activision - the worlds first third party publisher was founded in 1979 by four former Atari employees (David Crane, Larry Kaplan, Alan Miller, Bob Whitehead with Levy, plus founding Chief Executive Officer Jim Levy). Its first products were cartridges for the Atari 2600 video console system published from 1980 for the US market and from August 1981 for the international market. The name "Activision" was decided upon so that the company would appear before Atari in the phone book. |
