Minds Behind Shooter Games
Interviews with Cult and Classic Video Game Developers
«“Patrick's interviews with all the top names in the industry let the reader feel like they know the developer and the games when they finish reading. I consider him one of the good guys in the industry.” —Todd Friedman, author of The Walter Day Superstars, Volume 1
“Patrick has taken on an incredibly important task of telling these fascinating, untold stories of the greatest minds in the most underappreciated art form. Without him and these books, their stories would never be documented like they are now. Classes of video game history will owe this man everything.” —Kyle Davis and Blaise Dahl, Top Kvlt (Horror Podcast)“When it comes to preserving the stories behind the gaming industry's most influential titles, Patrick Hickey Jr. has proven to be an unwavering force time and time again. With an impossible attention to detail and profoundly entertaining story telling, Patrick's writing has an incredible knack to transport its readers to a very special place in gaming history. It is a journey that anyone - gamer or not - would be grateful to be a part of.” —Andreas Asimakis, host, The Duel Screens podcast»
