Rob Swan, started his game development career in 1997 with the Net Yaroze šŸ˜„
He made some very well known games on the PS1, thanks to the Official Playstation Magazine (OPSM) Demo CDā€™s (PAL regions).
His most famous PS1 game being Adventure game:

He went on to make console games (GBA, PS2, Xbox360, Wii) and ā€œhomebrewā€ games for web(Flash), PC and XNA (xbox360).

He is a great C/C++/OpenGL programmer but more importantly a great ā€˜all-rounderā€™ gamedev!
Keen to tackle anything and everything.. even webpage development šŸ‘

When it comes to game design, heā€™s no slouch there either.
Drawing from his own experiences, ideas and adding heā€™s unique brand of comedy and satire.
