SHAUN AITCHESON
Shaun grew up in New Zealand playing games on his Sega Master System and Amiga 500. Alex Kidd in Miracle World was an early obsession, but when he played Quest for Glory on the Amiga, everything changed. Secret of Monkey Island soon followed and an adventure game fan was created for life.
After saying he was going to make a game for years, a workplace art exhibition gave him the chance to make something small in Adventure Game Studio. Mudlarks was born shortly thereafter, and the floodgates opened. Favourite games: Quest for Glory, Twinsen's Odyssey, Gabriel Knight 3, Gone Home, The Witcher 3, Yakuza 0, Paradise Killer, Mundaun |
JOHN INCH
Those who know him are akin to John's sudden bursts of energy to get through projects. He spends most of the rest of his time just floating around - this trait mirrored the barracuda fish's hunting habits, and thus the name was given.
Furthermore the barracuda do not shy from attacking larger prey and John has always dreamed of taking on establishments. Be it through art forms or other methods. The egg is a reference is the barracuda’s rebirth, this time promising to show long term commitments to projects great and small. Favourite games: Sexy Parodius, Renegade, Beneath a Steel Sky, Colonization |
