It's my GAME DEV anniversary! I've been doing professional game dev/design for 39 years (started on the Apple ][+ 46 years ago). Thanks to all my co-workers and friends all those years, and thanks to all the gamers playing the games we made. And the journey continues! #gamedev #gamedesign

Happy 34th anniversary to Spear of Destiny, our commercial version of Wolfenstein 3D! Seems like it's always been a little harder than expected to get that thing.... #wolfenstein #spearofdestiny #id #idsoftware

RIP Bobby Prince. His music legacy will live on, making inspired music for Commander Keen, Wolfenstein 3D, DOOM, countless others. A true legend. And such a nice man, great musician, wonderful, fun-loving man, nothing but happy memories of him. A loss to the world.

On June 9th, 1980, my Dad brought home an Apple ][+ for the family. It was the start of summer. I lived on that thing, playing games, typing them in from magazines, and starting to try to change those games, soon making my own. Changed my life. Thanks Dad! #apple2 #games #gamedev
