Steve Turner (game programmer) - Wikipedia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

British video game musician

Steve Turner is a former computer game musician and designer. His development team, Graftgold, mostly wrote for games published by Hewson Consultants during the 1980s.

The first computer he bought was a ZX80 which had to be assembled by hand. At school he was a member of a computing club where he learnt the Algol 60 programming language. During the 1970s he added Cobol to his repertoire from a government funded training course. He went on to a programming job in the Civil Service. Turner was 30 when he decided to move into games development. His first game was written whilst he was still employed as a programmer and he handed his notice in when he received his first royalty cheque.[1]

He also wrote a series of articles for ZX Computing between August 1986 and January 1987, called The Professional Touch.[2] Andrew Hewson had previously written for the magazine but got too busy to do it and Turner replaced him.[3]
