Matthew Smith (born 1966) is a British computer game programmer. He is best known for his games "Manic Miner" and "Jet Set Willy" for the ZX Spectrum, released in 1983 and 1984 respectively. He was born in London, but his family moved around a great deal, finally ending up in Wallasey. He started out programming on a TRS-80. His first commercial game was a "Galaxian" clone for the TRS-80 called "Delta Tower One". Wikipedia
