Behold... a MMORPG for Furries

I no longer miss playing video games.


Back during my internship at Timesink when I was writing tools for an MPlayer RTS (Warsport - don't worry, you haven't played it) at age 16, that guy was one of the programmers on the other game (sort of a combination of MMORPGs and Myst for MPlayer) that Timesink never finished. He'd been working on Furcadia for a while by then and it was fairly popular. He came to work every day in his pajamas and wearing a stuffed parrot clipped to his shoulder - he also worked on Ultimas 4-7 (all the ones that didn't suck), though I'm not 100% sure about 4 & 5. If you've ever been to 'The Cat's Lair' in Britain in Ultima Online - that's a reference to him, Dr. Cat.

Really nice guy. Also really weird. When we all went out to pizza (rarely - I came during crunch which is why I got stuck doing janitorial coding) I once rode with him. The single messiest vehicle I have ever ridden in my life. Like a landfill on wheels, really.
