The first game I ever beta tested.

How does it make you feel to know that a bunch of the best players (not the top 2, but a few of the top 20 and even more of the rising stars) weren't even born when Age 2 first came out?

I came to terms with getting old a very long time ago. Being able to play games at a high level requires hand to eye coordination and dexterity that sadly degrade as you age. It's not surprising that top players are younger. It's exciting to hear that a younger generation is picking up a game from my early adulthood. What's even more wild are the ones competing in games like Tetris, a game from my childhood.
