Spencer Grey
Spencer Grey is a native New Yorker who started making games by typing in source code from magazines (that used to be a thing!). Once upon a time, he was creative director of Sesame Street's digital group where he would boss around Elmo and Big Bird. After that, he cofounded Electric Funstuff and for 15 years developed game ideas for companies such as Scholastic, Sony, and Lego. Spencer has been a teacher, programmer, writer, and producer in the games industry. Mr. Grey is definitely not related to the grey aliens stored in Area 51. Definitely not. No way.
Many thanks to the excellent team at Packt who made this an efficient and pleasant process. Thank you, Pratik, Aaron, Hayden, Aamir, Divij, Saurabh, and the others I haven't met. Thanks also to the human race for being such complex and amusing creatures.
