I worked closely together with Christian on a part of the multiplayer for Bionic Commando. Professionaly the best time that i had during my stay at Grin. Christian is full of good ideas and a nice guy in general. I will miss him as a co-worker and would recommend him to any company that is looking for talented game designers. I hope that we will get a chance to work together again in the future.
