I *love* Golden Axe! I may be the only one, but in this video, I make a case for what they do right.

Could you do a rundown of your early game influences at some point? What systems did you have growing up? What games first made you interested in being a game developer?

Sure that sounds like a good idea. However, I don't think it'll be THAT exciting. I had a Mac growing up, so it was slim pickings with the computer games (although Lucasarts took pity on us and ported some of the classics). Mostly, I was raised on NES games. The Mario games were my favorite!
