Dave Killingsworth is the founder of SolarFlare Games and started making games in 2013 with the first game Thrash-Car. Now in 2019 he has just released his 10th game Robotech: Crisis Point. Dave enjoys making lighter games that are accessible to almost any player skill level and works to use games to bring people back together to connect in an analog way. With all the phones and digital life out there, he felt it was important to make things that connect people and bring them fun and joy. The last 2 years have been consumed with making three games in the Robotech universe. Having licensed the IP he wanted to do some games that really serviced the fans and the IP well - from a fanboy stand point and he has done that. Robotech is alive and well and he got to keep adding things to a fictional universe that he loves. It does not get any better than that.
