Today we’re proud to introduce the newest member of the Cloud Imperium team, Pete Mackay! If you’ve queried our customer support channels in the last few days, you’ve probably already met Pete… he jumped right into the post-campaign support backlog and helped us catch up almost immediately. Since he’s working with the community, you’re likely to be seeing a lot of him in the coming months!
I’ve wanted to make games since the early 90s, but there wasn’t a lot of opportunity for a career in games in Salt Lake City (especially for someone who didn’t know the business end of a for loop!), so I ended up at a cool regional ISP called XMission. I was there for about 10 years when I decided a change of pace was in order. So I gave my notice, put my stuff in a truck and moved to Austin with nothing more than a place to crash when I arrived and a vague idea of my plan for for world domination. Shortly afterward I got a job with a great studio called LightBox Interactive doing QA in downtown Austin. A couple of years later I moved into a production position and took up the mantle of Community Manager, which ultimately ended up in an offer to work for Chris at Cloud Imperium.
