Gibbon is a [[roguelike]] lover, player and developer, he spends his time creating and maintaining various programs in [[C]] and [[Python]] and enjoys playing the classic games in the roguelike genre.  His favorites are [[XRogue]], [[Advanced Rogue]] and [[Larn]] although he also plays [[Brogue]] occasionally.
He is developing a new roguelike in the classic sense, aimed towards the experienced players of the genre with a focus on rich story telling, magic and brutal difficulty.
He is also maintaining [[XRogue]] independently from the [[Roguelike Restoration Project]] due to their slow maintenance and allowing some of the sources to become outdated, requiring intervention to fix new bugs and crashes.  He enjoys contributing to opensource projects.  He has since switched to maintaining an original version of [[Larn]] instead of [[Advanced Rogue]] due to duplication of efforts while maintaining [[XRogue]].
