I'm going to Bungie

Hi guys, It's been some time, I've got news.

I'm finally graduating from DigiPen. Aaaand I'm going to work for Bungie. On Destiny. I'll be there for at least a year. Then we see what happens after that.

So that means that I probably won't be releasing any new games for awhile (check out my latest at http://www.chronodisfunglement.com). I'll be working on Destiny full time. Also, I'm getting married soon.

That's all the news I have, now for the point of this post.

Thank You

I truly cannot express how important this community has been to me. I started making games on my own when I was 17 and didn't know shit. The reason I kept making games is that people appreciated my games and took the time out to give me feedback and encouragement. BSF would not exist without the feedback I've gotten from the players over the years. I started on BSF in 2005, got it to v0.11 and stopped for a few months. However, the feedback I received for that was so positive I eventually started working on it again. Without you guys, BSF would never have been the game it is.

In the end, BSF's growth was limited by my ability to make it. This is why I went to DigiPen. This is also why I'm going to Bungie now. Despite graduating from DigiPen, I know now that I am still not good enough. Bungie will put me in an environment where everyone is smarter and better than me and I'll have no choice but to grow and get even better.

Finally, this is not a good bye. I'll still be here. This website and forum isn't going anywhere. So, feel free to ask me anything.

Congratulations on graduating, the new job, and the marriage! What a combo! Hadn't heard of Destiny before but looks bad-ass. Maybe you can pitch them BSF once they are duly impressed with your skills :P Well good luck in all you do, it will only get better from here!

Make sure they port Destiny to PC or I'll never forgive you. :P

Just out of curiosity, what will you be doing at Bungie?
