Wait, did you work on Megamek? That's...where I got my start doing actual released software too. I was responsible for a bunch of random-ass (and not so wonderfully coded, I'll admit, but I was 16...) features: protomechs, VTOLs, artillery...Hell, I learned Java from scratch to be able to work on Megamek. Those were the days...I haven't played Battletech in ages, but I miss it still, and there's always a nice feeling about the game in my head from its relation to the (very) beginning of my career.

God it's a small world out there.

Yep, it was MegaMek. Man does it feel like a lifetime ago.
