It is with
a heavy heart that I find myself making this journal entry. John Comes, better known as
Scathis to many of us, tendered his resignation several weeks ago. Scathis had
an opportunity elsewhere the he could not afford to pass on. He left on good
terms with Gas Powered.
Since Scathis’ departure I have
become the new Lead Designer for Demigod. Previously I had been on the project
in an advisory role. Some of you may know me as Mike Marr, or Tyo- that guy
who was the Lead Balance Designer for Forged Alliance. I certainly see a lot of
familiar faces on the forums.
It is my
every intention to continue creating the game that Scathis envisioned. He and I
worked closely on Demigod for the past several months and during that time I
learned everything I could about the game and what his plans for it were. There
was a careful and well planned passing of the torch and Scathis took every step
to insure that the game would forge on to completion the way he had hoped to
finish it himself.
So, in
closing, please join me in wishing Scathis the best in his future endeavors. I
am truly excited about working on Demigod and will be actively participating on
the forums in the coming months.
