*arrives in 'heaven'*

god: "So, did you like it?"

me: "Like what?"

god: "Life. It's a survival horror game I.."

me: "Well, THAT makes sense."

god: "So? What did you think?"

me: "Character selection doesn't even work right. The whole thing is pay to win, heavily rigged against casual players, bug reports go unanswered, but overall, I think you nailed it. It's a horror just trying to survive."

god: "I'm the best."

Raise a glass of your new Mario-themed novelty wine this Christmas Day in memory of Archer Maclean, who passed away yesterday.

#ArcherMaclean wrote some amazing 8-bit games, including #Dropzone and #IK+ and pretty much the best simulation of snooker with Jimmy White's Whirlwind Snooker.
