20 Years to the Day - The Beginning of Jak and Daxter

A few days ago I realized something. That in early January 2000 I signed the contract to begin work on a project that would become Jak and Daxter. I searched my files and found the contract. The date was January 5.

So this is it friends! It was 20 years ago on this day I signed the deal to get started on "Project Y". The rest as they say is video game history. This is a graphic I created in honor of the occasion. I plan on featuring a lot of the unseen art throughout the year.

  2. I'm playing the first game on the PS3 right now. I'll be playing the remaining games once I get all the trophies. It's so fun. It's also my first time experiencing them.

    Here's hoping Activision hires you when designing future "Crash Bandicoot" and "Spyro the Dragon" characters.

  3. Hello Unknown and thank you! Activision won't hire me but that's okay. There's a lot of very talented artists who can do a great job with characters.

  5. Hello DarkEcoDemon. Covid threw everything off. I still plan on doing this but can't say when. I have a huge amount of unseen art from many projects. Will feature it all eventually. Thanks for checking in!
