Yeah, it's true. I was one of ten people to present their games (mine was You Only Live Once) at the Sense of Wonder Night, an event sponsored by Sony/Nintendo/Microsoft(!) held at the Tokyo Game Show this year. Super big thanks to Kongregate and the really cool people who helped pay for my trip. I was nervous as hell but the presentation went down pretty well. If you don't believe me, there's even an official Youtube video of the presentation online. I'm embarrased about my Swedish accent but what the hell, at least I look good, so I'll post it.

I was stoked to see that Behemoth had a booth at the show and had a short chat with Dan Paladin but he had no idea who I was so I felt a bit like just another stupid fan, instead of "I love your stuff too, man!" (Tom would have recognized me, I'm sure!)
Also, I'm on twitter now. If you want to get the latest updates on my games, do follow me :) I'll probably have a really small parody game up by monday for a Japanese 48hr flash game comp.

Sorry I couldn't be there this year, I was committed to the Denver Beerfest Meetup before I knew the TGS date!
Nice presentation! How many languages do you personally speak?

Thanks Tom! It would have been awesome to get to see you but maybe next time :) Forgot to mention that your new game looks great, btw!
I just speak Swedish, English and Japanese - which might seem impressive but I majored in East-Asian Studies and Japanese language for 3 1/2 years, so more than anything it'd be surprising if I didn't speak the language.
