Extra questions: 1) Explain me your function on the PU team please. My current task is providing a workspace, called the Pokeditor, to create the entire worldmap and other gaming content! It's actually meant for the map editors and the npc creators. Also the quests can be made using this nifty tool.
2) What do you consider your biggest accomplishment for PU?Making the NPC editor and the Map editor work together properly. It hasn't accomplished that well yet...
3) Do you have any other projects you work on besides PU?Actually many. I'm also a music producer (house, dance, electro). Before PU I had different other projects, like my flash game "assisted defense". That one is actually from 2008. It's now all around the internet, pretty nice! I tried to make a sequell, but that one never got finished. Actually PU is my next big project, my other small projects are forgotten already.
4) Who’s your favourite PU-team member?I can't actually choose...
5) Bulbasaur, Squirtle or Charmander?Definitely Charmander, because I won't be able to catch that many other fire pokemon in my Pokemon blue game...
