Mr. Thomas Biskup, founder of Quinscape and outstanding developer from the middle ages of roguelike development (the nineties), the creator of ADoM and the dreamer behind JADE, is a tough one to catch… Santiago Zapata, for Temple of The Roguelike.

Thanks for the interview Biskup, and I’m psyched for Part Two. I love to hear anything I can about JADE.
Very interesting interview. Definitely curious what this fellow gets up to in the months and years to come.
I dropped the link into reddit/gaming but it got voted down :( (since reddit rgrd is dead). sigh
I think it would be great if Thomas could join the IRDC in Geneva in November. We could make a PhD celebration for him as well :-) And he could give a sneek peek of JADE :-) I’m sure that would bring even more people to come to IRDC :-)
That’d be great! Would be awesome if he could come.
Oh, and the rgrd reddit is not, dead people are just not posting on it very often.
I posted the interview there:

I will try to contact him, I think he’s still on his honeymoon
Thanks Ido, I debated posting it on /r/rgrd but it gets no traffic compared to /r/gaming, I wanted more people to see it :)
Great and very interesting interview!
