quote-un-quote:
Terry Cavanagh has slowly but surely paved a way for himself to become a successful and well known full-time independent videogame developer. From Self Destruct to Pathways to his collaborations, Xoldiers (with cactus) and Judith (with Stephen Lavelle) and finally his break through shareware hit, VVVVVV (which was become both a huge critical and commercial success), Terry has...
