My #FirstGamesJob: #Bullfrog in 1997. Coded all the visitor behaviour on Theme Park World (aka Sim Theme Park). The coolest studio in the world at that time, and legendary now. A bit like Bono asking if you wanted to be in U2. Went on to #Lionhead, #Microsoft, and now #EpicGames.

@LawrenceLSF I think I made it too hard. It is possible, I did it once, but I can't do it again now :) you have to use a crazy shift pattern

@LawrenceLSF I can't remember what time I got. But we have an advantage, we made the game :) I see you're a big fan of CSR. Good to see!

@jessicacurry2 it's just profoundly beautiful and affecting. That doesn't remotely do it justice, but one can't tweet this feeling. Thanks.
