For anybody curious as to what he was doing while away for 20 years, just look up "Chip Tanaka" on your music streaming app of choice. He's put out some real bangers.

Thanks for the input, I was not expecting bangers!

I already see the picture : here is another awful game made with a kickstarter sold with just an old name of a guy who don't know what he is doing anymore.

He's actually been making music again since 2017, just not for video games. He goes by "Chip Tanaka" and the stuff he's making is still very VGM-inspired.

In conclusion, Sue Donym is a land of contrasts.
