Don’t look it up: A group of college friends meet for a reunion, then a surprise guest arrives with a mysterious suitcase…

Today, I celebrate 38 years as a professional Game Developer!
It's been a crazy roller coaster, but what a ride it has been.
This summer also marks the 40th anniversary of our family getting an Apple ][+, which started my game dev journey.
Thanks for playing and/or working alongside me, folks!
