It's always sad when creative minds leave this world. Rest in peace, I send my condolences to the family and friends. I will check his creations as way to honor his legacy.

In more recent years, Richard had been making Foxen Island and teaching game dev courses at university in the UK.

I’ve added Richard to our In Memoriam page and to celebrate his legacy, today I’m featuring DN8 as my Takeover Tuesday pick. If you didn’t have anything in mind to feature today, consider doing the same!

Rest in Peace.


When I saw the Takeover page, I wanted to play that DN8. Reminded me of Darius.


I plan to release my multiscroller nightmare area shmup alongside Fly Hunter's new makeup in the future.

RIP Richard.

I fondly remember the Outpost games. It truly is a shame that we may not ever get an official remaster for these games. (However if any users want to band together to make a remaster as a sort of tribute, that would be cool)

I didn't see the newspost in time last tuesday and so I promoted my own film when I got a notif that someone else had already promoted it.


So tomorrow I'm planning to promote the second thing on @TomFulp's list because I don't want to forget about @Squize that quickly. join me?
