I always try to create new experiences that are fun to play.
Game music has a purpose and it does incorporate sound effects.
What I found is that just in the lifestyle today, people have fewer and fewer opportunities to get exercise.
Donkey Kong Country proves that players will put up with mediocre gameplay as long as the art is good.
What comes next? Super Mario 128? Actually, that's what I want to do.
It isn't about games, for me, personally, and it never really was. It was about creating something - anything - far bigger than yourself.
