    Heyo. I'm an old-timer who, long ago, was a new-timer. During those times, Forest Johnson was basically famous among Unity devs for his experiments.

    What ever happened to him? I remember a few years back looking into him and seeing he was not doing so well. Now his blogger website is down. All that remains is his portfolio:

    Anybody remember him? Anybody know what happened to him?

    Thanks,

    -- Flynn

    One more question: Does he have a github?

    Definitely the same name. Any confirmation beyond that, per chance? I notice he *was* an intern at Unity3D! Anyways, good find, thanks.

    Out of curiosity, did you learn of him in this post, or do you remember him from back in the day?
