Hi, my name is James Spanos.

I've coded Primordia, a game where Man is but a myth.

I've also worked on a lot of other games, most notably, Strangeland, The Cat Lady, Hob's Barrow, Until I Have You, Mages Initiation and currently Fallen Gods and Carbonflesh.
NGL, for some reason since last year I've been rather spamming "?" in syntax, and it's really beautifying the code and making it easier to read and faster to write!

I THINK.

Excuse you?! In this house we protect Crispin like the gift to robotkind, that he is.

In some seriousness, it's always sad to see people not resonate with the game's themes or characters or art-style or music or setting, but that's also normal, and not everything is for everyone.

Isn't it funny that people lose in court and go publicly on Twitter to hopefully get the public on their side to accomplish jack shit?

And here's my playlist list if you want to check out the others. I will warn that a lot of my early vids had mic issues.

Yo @discord.com please please, do the full face ID, so i can fucking drop you. My account was hacked 2 years ago, and it took you 6 months to delete it, cause your entire support system and phone number is full of bots. We're talking over 40 mails and messages, for you to do what was confirmed day 2

Having finished TOTK, I can safely say, it's a wonderful Zelda experience, even though I understand the divisiveness it has caused, I wholeheartedly disagree, this imho is the step into the right direction.

172 hours, took many weeks to finish.
