Forbidden West’s wave system was one of the most complex systems we build. It uses sequence of images that contain 3D vector displacement to make it possible to have waves break and collapse on themselves. Something that is hard to do, especially if it also needs to work on PS4.

Have been on Twitter for almost 10 years. The best thing for me was connecting directly with Horizon and Killzone players from all around the world. Maybe there will be a bounce back, but otherwise will surely miss this!💙🙏

Konami games in the 80s were exceptional in terms of quality, but also incredibly hard. Played this as a kid, completed all stages several times, but always too late to save the princess. Finally discovered why; an additional hidden condition: 'Pause the game 4*x+1 times' ..🙃
