Holy shit, I haven't read that name in a long time. I used to hang out on irc in a channel that levelord frequented. He seemed like a genuine and kind guy. Damn.

We're losing the gaming pioneers left and right, it's sad. I knew the game composer Bobby Prince was in poor health earlier this year because I had seen a crowd funding campaign to help him with medical debt, but it was only the other day I found out he had died in June earlier this year.

As for 3D Realms, Duke Nukem 3D was the first game a school mate and I tried making levels in back in the 90s, and it wasn't easy. Quite a feat making as interesting levels back then as the the first professionals made.
