Very sad news. I worked closely with Rebecca on Bard's Tale III—a very fruitful collaboration. She will be missed.

Surprise! New video! Before the chicken nugget meme, there was a band of Swedish dumbasses and a guy named Joe who had cotton for eyes. And for some reason they made an adventure game in the mid 90s. Yes, this is real.
