Brief History of Prince of Persia by Jordan Mechner.

Prince of Persia is a fantasy platform game, originally developed by Jordan Mechner and
released on the 3rd of October 1989 for the
Apple II.
It represented a great leap forward in the quality of animation seen in video games.

After the original release on the Apple II, it was ported to a wide range of platforms, including the Amiga, Apple Macintosh, DOS, NES, Game Boy, Sega Mega Drive, Game Gear, SNES, Sharp X68000, Atari ST and SAM Coupé.

The game influenced a sub-genre known as the cinematic platformer, which imitated the sprawling non-scrolling levels, fluid animation, and control style.
Mechner used an animation technique called rotoscoping, in which he traced video footage of his younger brother running and jumping in white clothes.

Mechner has said that when he started programming, the first ten minutes of Raiders of the Lost Ark had been one of the main inspirations for the character's acrobatic responses in a dangerous environment.
His goal was "to create an entertaining fantasy in the spirit of the 1001 Nights" and he was also inspired by Sufi legends.
