Now here's a group of folks who definitely deserve their own page! We'll add a couple of new
team members each month, so you can see what sort of people actually make a living playing games!

Ever since I had my first computer, an Atari 400, I wanted to
develop games. In fact I started developing my first while patiently saving
my money to buy my first computer, and the night I finally brought it home,
I sat there typing in several 100 lines of BASIC code. Amazingly enough it
worked well for a first attempt. Thus started my love of computer games and
game development.
Several years after my "first" project, I graduated with a computer
science degree, and went right to work for a military contractor developing
reams of documentation about what we intended to code. It actually was a
very good first professional experience. It was exciting work once I got
used to the bureaucracy and it really taught me a lot about designing and
implementing solid code for systems where failure could cost people their
lives. But finally my big break occurred when I read an ad for software
engineers in Interaction Magazine. I had been developing games in my spare
time, and dreamt of the day when I could get paid for it. I eventually
landed at Dynamix working on Rama with Gentry Lee, Arthur C. Clark and Mark
Hood. This was a great introduction into the gaming business. From Rama I
moved into flight sims, and worked on Red Baron 2 and Red Baron 3D. And of
course now I am working on GK3 with some really cool technology and an
awesome story (as always).
