In my indie game “Beyond Sunset” the blue security programs are a reference to the Atari arcade game “I Robot”. The purple security programs are a reference to the strategy game 868-HACK.

This is why building a portfolio of mobile apps feels like building a sandcastle right next to the shore.
Oh it’s that time of the year again.
