Among other things, this got me dabbling with software development. It had an awesome C++ like scripting language.
It also used to have a button with a text like "make a game" where you would click what you wanted in the form of checkboxes and when you pressed the submit button it would tell you something like, it's not that easy, is it? Wonder how easier it may be now. :P
Both creators are now very active on Youtube. Yahtzee has split from The Escapist to create an independent journalism website Second Wind, and Rebecca streams video games as Rebecca's Pixel Quest.
His friend and collaborator Francisco Gonzales (Grundislav) also has a great backlog of games. Besides recent commercial efforts, there's the free Ben Jordan: Paranormal Investigator series: https://www.grundislav.games/Ben-Jordan.html
Big fan of Chandler's art, though "Old Skies" kept the characters on the same plane, never moving away from "camera" POV. So the whole game felt very flat to me. Hopefully his future works will scale the characters.
Hah! Thanks for sharing. Great to see them doing fun stuff. Just watched a quick yatzhee one. I did play a few in the Ben Jordan series and duty and beyond.
