"Alasdair Beckett-King first encountered games through playing
Dizzy on a ZX
Spectrum bought by his parents. "We got a second-hand Spectrum with a black and
white monitor. I don't even know if kids know that was a thing. So I played
Dizzy in black and white. It's a hard enough game in colour!"
When he eventually got his hands on a PC, Beckett-King was drawn to adventure
games like
The Secret of Monkey Island and
Full Throttle. It's a passion
he's maintained all his life, through film school into his initial career as a
game developer, creating games like
Nelly Cootalot and the Fowl Fleet, and
Unforeseen Incidents."
