Had anyone from the golden age of animation ever worked on a video game? - dotime - 25th September 2023

A really good question, like people who worked on films like snow white ect 
Did any of them live long enough to work on any games?

Yes!

Back in the 80's, there were two arcade games (later ported to LaserDiscs) called Dragon's Lair and Space Ace. Both games were created by Rick Dyer and had as the main artist Don Bluth! ex-Disney animator and artist who worked on Sleeping Beauty (as an 'in-between artist, not credited) and Robin Hood, the American animated musical movie made by Disney back in the '70s.

There were many other artists who came from the FOX animated movies who also worked on video games but I can't think of any off the top of my head right now. If I remember I'll tell you!
