Andrew, a loong time ago
23 May 2011, 6:22 pm

OK this is plain eerie. I just realized that I met Andrew Spiering, our new awesome programmer, 11 years ago (10/11). Here's an e-mail from him (with his permission of course):

"I just had a couple questions about Natural Selection. have you guys ever thought about making this a game, not a mod, because i think it would be a real good separate game by itself. Also the command mode are those screens actually from in game or are they concept ideas for the mode ? But i would really think about getting a good engine and making this mod into a great game because it would be a great game. I can say I would buy it."

Then he went and worked at Blizzard for years and now he's working at Unknown Worlds! It has all come full circle...

Now that is awesome.  Crazy that this was dreamt up about 11 years ago...and the guy went to Blizzard and is now back with UWE.
