When I had the creative oppertunity to make one that described myself I figured 'Hey, why not?'[paragraph break]Getting to know someone is like an adventure game in the sense that you have to explore that person. Exploring this game is a metaphor for getting to know me, my personality, my quirks, and my past accomplishments.[paragraph break]I also wanted to push the boundaries of social norms. I wanted some puzzle to solve that was outside that ever so popular 'box'. I hope that with a bit of nostalgia from the 1980[']s I have successfully jumped that proverbial fence. And more to the point, I truly hope you have found this as entertaining and fun as I had making it.[paragraph break]So without further ado... Welcome to The Devin Weaver Company.[paragraph break]Please enjoy your stay. Check out [The Hall of Achievements] or [The Museum]. We have [a laboratory] that describes projects that have been worked on, or stop by [The offices] to see where the administrative magic happens.[paragraph break][italic type]There is also [a dungeon] for adults only. See if you can find it.[roman type][paragraph break]Sincerely, Devin Weaver <suki (at) tritarget.org>".
