Sandy Petersen

He died pretty poor.

Sandy Peterson made him famous.

Kind of, yeah.

And we are keeping Sandy Peterson famous.

Yeah, we made him famous.

And we made Sandy Peterson famous.

We're taking

Well, you know, just in talking to people and talking to, you know, kind of like younger family members who kind of got it, like a lot of them were just saying like, hey, you know, just wear whatever's comfortable or, you know, don't compromise for anybody else's sake or any of that.

And, you know, I'm a very diplomatic person who can tend to make herself pretty small, you know, and, you know, like that's a trauma response.

I don't like doing that, but...

I try to be mindful that I'm not going to be doing that for no good reason.

Yeah,

it might be that.

Because I guess it's a weird, like, I wouldn't necessarily recommend people buying the game because the person who made it, Sandy Peterson, is, like, selling crypto now and, like, didn't fulfill the

So in my foreword, right, my foreword is by a fellow named Sandy Peterson.

And I give full props to Sandy Peterson for his foreword because I'm reading three, four, five pages about how important like Macken has been in his life.

Joey Larson says, the LCGs I have gotten that have given my life to are not, I guess, insta-buys.

HeroScape Master Set Rise of the Valkyrie Expansions, Vlada Shvatil, or Sandy Peterson Games.

Oh, so these are.

Oh, these are

his insta-buys.

Sandy Peterson has

done some pretty cool stuff, so...

I don't know.

Yeah, it actually reminds me of some of the illustrations I've seen about, like, Natcha.

I think the one in, you know, the Sandy Peterson's Book of Monsters?

Yes,

yeah.

Yeah, anyway.

Sometimes I think that Sandy Peterson is actually H.P. Lovecraft.

Yes.

So that rounds out my list.

John Carmack built the engine from scratch.

The levels were mostly John Romero's and Sandy Petersen's, and the art came from Adrian Carmack and Kevin Cloud.

The title's nicked from The Color of Money, where Tom Cruise gets asked, uh, what's in his case, and answers, "Doom?" You play a space marine stuck on the moons of Mars, shooting through demon-infested bases.

Uh, Knee-Deep in the Dead is the free first episode.
