Notable quotes
“I just keep on thinking like what could my guardians be like you know if it was as cool as everyone else says it is because I don't have you know that thing hasn't been updated in a year and a half”
“I'm making more of an impact on the pinball community doing what I do in my 40 hour a week workday than I do building games, believe it or not.”
“I gave it a 20% chance of making it into production... I flipped it, and then I said, that's fucking awesome. I give it an 80% chance now”
“A sling can shoot in many ways, but a pop bumper, you would think that just the degree of difference would send it a whole different direction.”
“The actual sellout in my mind was actually just due to the theme being great and Spooky being a good pinball company. And then people were excited about the fact that I made another game, which did factor into it a little bit.”
“It's shooting up the play field. It's shooting back at me. It's shooting across the thing. Every direction it's shooting. It's crazy.”
