Scott Miller is a prolific and influential figure in the video game industry, best known as the founder of Apogee Software (later 3D Realms). He pioneered the shareware distribution model in the late 1980s and early 1990s, allowing players to try a portion of a game before purchasing the full version. This innovative approach helped launch numerous successful franchises, including Commander Keen, Duke Nukem, and Wolfenstein 3D (co-published with id Software). Miller's entrepreneurial spirit and focus on independent game development have left a lasting mark on the industry, inspiring countless developers and shaping the landscape of PC gaming.
