Mario has something to tell you

Want to know if I quit my job? Play this game, which I sent around my office earlier today.

Click to start the game, then use arrow keys to play.

Six weeks hence indie gaming love will gush from this site. I stayed up all night working on my resignation though, so I’ll have to take a nap beforehand.

‘night.

    Hey. I am a game developer who just quit a week ago to pursue some indie gold. I never had the idea of making up such an awesome resigLetter.

    I will probably do something of this sort when I do leave about 3 weeks from now.

    Awesome :)

    Btw, let me know if you are into collaborating on a game or something. Indie coders unite :)

  7. GameCoderDude says:

    And btw… I’ve already played all three games listed on your site. Awesome stuff.

  31. Andrew K says:

    What the fuck?

  32. Bennendine says:

    Like Google, “farbs” is now a verb – to quit one’s job in a manner that defies awesomeness. Now I’ll need you to hack the phones at my place of horror.

  33. Interesting way to say goodbye.
