Making art, making video games, is my way of sharing who I am with the — Eric Barone

"It does help if you can absolutely convince yourself that youre destined for greatness. Its not even an ego thing--its just a way to prevent doubt and insecurity from hindering you."

"You should be free to work yourself to the bone, but not to force someone else to do that for you."

"There’s a balance you have to have between being very critical of yourself and your work while also maintaining a strong faith in your own ability. Your unique voice and perspective matter and if you can find a way to bring that out then you will create something special."

"I think its a lot easier to stay driven when youre doing your own project, knowing that there are no limits to how far you can go."

"There is no "secret" to being successful, you just need to have great dedication and perseverance and adopt a "can do" attitude."

"Ive always been obsessed with creating stuff, I spent my spare time doodling, making music, writing... basically all the different aspects of making a game. I just didnt know at the time that I would find a way to combine all those things to bring a cohesive vision to life."
