My name's Matt Hackett and this is my personal website. Here are some hopefully interesting things about me, in a descendingly less interesting order:
- I'm Studio Director at Lost Decade Games, where I work on HTML5 games fulltime.
- I was a web developer from 2003 to 2011, working at places like Yahoo! and Raptr.
- I contributed 60 seconds worth of music to Capcom's Street Fighter 2 HD Remix.
- I've written one professional game review (of Dark Spire for DS).
- In 2009, three friends and I won first place at a VIFA-recognized foosball tournament.
- In my teens I was cast as an extra in a painfully bad movie called Betaville.
- I graduated from Southern Illinois University with a Bachelor of Arts in Mass Communication (and a minor in Marketing).
- I was born the day John Lennon died.
This website is open source. The design is dynamically updated based on the weather and time of day where I live. More info can be found in the README file.
