Why Is Scott Miller Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Scott Miller is an American video game designer, programmer, and entrepreneur best known for founding Apogee Software, Ltd. in 1987. Starting with the Kroz series for MS-DOS from that year, Miller pioneered the concept of giving away the first game in a trilogy—distributed freely as shareware—with the opportunity to purchase the remaining two episodes. This method became the standard distribution method for Apogee. Competitors such as Epic MegaGames later adopted the same business model.
