I’m super pleased to have gifted the trademarks to the guys, who can extend their good work in supporting Matt with this extra legal umbrella. Without Matt & his creations a generation of gamers & coders would have had a very different childhood or career #manicminer #retrogaming

Here is more gameplay of the new art direction for Quetzal (the Aztec Zelda-like game). These are edits from me playing through the opening of the game.
