Editorial Analysis
Back in 1994 Elon Musk was another new graduate in Silicon Valley doing whatever work he though would be interesting, this lead him to work with 'Rocket Science Games' who at the time thought the future of gaming would be build around live action cutscenes, I'm so glad they were wrong.\nHis 2 game credits are\nLoadstar: The Legend of Tully Bodine\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loadstar:_The_Legend_of_Tully_Bodine\nCadillacs and Dinosaurs: The Second Cataclysm\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadillacs_and_Dinosaurs:_The_Second_Cataclysm\n\nYou can also play a web browser version of Blastar, a game with about the same level of gameplay as these epic CDROM productions, but without the production values.\nhttps://blastar-1984.appspot.com/
