Atari Star Award
Extracted from the Wikipedia article Atari Program Exchange.
If accepted, a submitted program was added to the catalog with credit given to the programmer. The top submissions of the quarter in each category were recognized. One program each year received the top honor: the Atari Star award. It was given to My First Alphabet in 1981, Typo Attack in 1982, and the video game Getaway! in 1983. Typo Attack and two other releases, Eastern Front (1941) and Caverns of Mars, were moved into Atari's official product line as ROM cartridges.
